I am guessing you are talking about Option 3. They start with $125. So they times it by 1.25 as we are using the multiplier method. So in the First month, it will be 156.25. Second it will be 195.3125. So in August it will be $476.837157. Of couse round it and you will get $476.84.
I believe there is a more efficent way of doing this but I have forgotten.
I think the answer is 4.20 hours and minutes planning the last road trip .
It seems confusing, but it's just breaking down the steps for you. It's done the same as any other word problem.
a. The unknown is how many minutes she used beyond the plan. So, we'll use "m" for the variable, to represent minutes.
b. 73.40 = 65 + 0.10m
The 73.40 is the total, which is why it's by itself. 65 represents the price per month for the plan, and 0.10m is the price per extra minute multiplied by the unknown amount of minutes used.
c. 73.40 = 65 + 0.10m
8.40 = 0.10m
84 = m
d. The number of minutes that Allegra went over the time that the plan allows is found by solving the equation we just wrote and solved. $0.10 is paid for every minute past the plan's allowance, meaning that "m" in the equation, when solved, shows us exactly how many minutes over Allegra went.
Answer:
(-8, -6)
Step-by-step explanation:
When you graph the given equation on the given graph, you find the lines intersect at (-8, -6).
The solution to the system is (-8, -6).
__
The equation is given in slope-intercept form, so you can find the y-intercept (y=10) and draw a line with slope 2 from there. It will go through (-5, 0), so you know the solution lies in the 3rd quadrant and has an x-value less than -5. Only one answer choice matches.
Let x represent the number of pounds of $10.75/lb coffee used in the mix.
.. 10.75x +3.25(100 -x) = 5.65*100 . . . . . . total cost of coffee blend
.. x(10.75 -3.25) = 100*(5.65 -3.25) . . . . . .separate x-terms from non-x terms
.. x = 240/7.5 = 32
32 pounds of $10.75/lb coffee should be used
68 pounds of $3.25/lb coffee should be used
