Check the picture below.
notice chord QR is a diameter, thus the vertex at P has a right-angle by Thales theorem.
Answer: Sabrina read 65 pages on the second and third days
Step-by-step explanation:
45 + 2x = 175
45 - 45 + 2x = 175 -45
2x = 130
2x/2 = 130/2
x = 65
CHECK: 45 + 65 +65 = 175
a) The cost for 10 mile taxi ride is $18
b) The cost for m mile taxi ride is 1.5 m + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
The fixed charges for the pick up = $3
Charges per mile = $1.50
Let s denote the total miles driven and t be the total cost for the trip
This can be represented by the equation
t = 3 + 1.5s
Step 2:
Distance traveled by Jonathan in his trip = 10 miles
So cost for riding 10 miles is
t = 3 + 1.5(10) = 3 + 15 = $18
The cost for 10 mile taxi ride is $18
Step 3 :
If the distance traveled is m miles, then substituting s = m in the above equation we get the cost as 1.5 m + 3
Step 4 :
Answer :
a) The cost for 10 mile taxi ride is $18
b) The cost for m mile taxi ride is 1.5 m + 3
