The cost of parking is an initial cost plus an hourly cost.
The first hour costs $7.
You need a function for the cost of more than 1 hour,
meaning 2, 3, 4, etc. hours.
Each hour after the first hour costs $5.
1 hour: $7
2 hours: $7 + $5 = 7 + 5 * 1 = 12
3 hours: $7 + $5 + $5 = 7 + 5 * 2 = 17
4 hours: $7 + $5 + $5 + $5 = 7 + 5 * 3 = 22
Notice the pattern above in the middle column.
The number of $5 charges you add is one less than the number of hours.
For 2 hours, you only add one $5 charge.
For 3 hours, you add two $5 charges.
Since the number of hours is x, according to the problem, 1 hour less than the number of hours is x - 1.
The fixed charge is the $7 for the first hour.
Each additional hour is $5, so you multiply 1 less than the number of hours,
x - 1, by 5 and add to 7.
C(x) = 7 + 5(x - 1)
This can be left as it is, or it can be simplified as
C(x) = 7 + 5x - 5
C(x) = 5x + 2
Answer: C(x) = 5x + 2
Check:
For 2 hours: C(2) = 5(2) + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12
For 3 hours: C(3) = 5(3) + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17
For 4 hours: C(3) = 5(4) + 2 = 20 + 2 = 22
Notice that the totals for 2, 3, 4 hours here
are the same as the right column in the table above.
Which expression is equivalent to 100 n2 − 1? (10n)2 − (1)2 (10n2)2 − (1)2 (50n)2 − (1)2 (50n2)2 − (1)2
Regroup:
100n^2-1
=10^2n^2-1
=(10n)^2-1^2
So the correct answer is :
(10n)^2-1^2
To attempt to factor a polynomial of four or more terms with no common factor, first rewrite it in groups. Each group may possibly be separately factored, and the resulting expression may possibly lend itself to further factorization if a greatest common factor<span> or special form is created.</span>
Answer:
H: 2.8
Step-by-step explanation:
first divide 16 by 20 then you get a decimal.
then you add the decimal answer to the whole number (2)
Answer:
X=-2
Y=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both equations are already expressed in the simplest form of y, then we equate them to be equal hence
x-4=4x+2
Bringing like terms together
-4-2=4x-x
Solving both sides
-6=3x
Making x the subject then
X=-6/3=-2
Subsrituting the value of x into any of the initial equations
Y=x-4 then y=-2-4=-6
Therefore, the solution is
X=-2
Y=-6
52 is the answer to this question
