Let y = total charge for a car rental and x = miles driven
Proxy car equation: y = 0.32x + 18
YourPal equation: y = 0.36x + 12
Set equations right sides equal to each other... meaning their cost, y, are equal
0.32x + 18 = 0.36x + 12
18 = 0.04x + 12 (subtract 0.32x from both sides of the equation)
6 = 0.04x (subtract 12 from both sides of the equation)
150 = x (divide both sides of the equation by 0.04)
ANSWER: 150 miles
The unknown b is stuck in the exponent position.
We can can fix that by using logarithms.
Log is the inverse operation of the exponential.
We'll take log of each side.
Log of what base tho?
Well, the base of our exponential is e,
so we'll take log base e of each side.
We'll apply one of our log rules next:
This allows us to take the exponent out of the log,
Another thing to remember about logs:
When the base of the log matches the inside of the log,
then the whole thing is simply 1,
So our equation simplifies to this,
As a final step, divide both sides by 3,
k, hope that helps!
Ok so the wording is confusing
is it
A. 3 friends took 1 slice each (total is 3 slice) or
B. 3 friends took 1 slice total
if A, go to AAAAAA
if B. to to BBBBB
AAAAAAAAAA
3 slices taken
fraction is parts out of whole
what is left
left=original-taken
taken=3
original=8
8-3=5
5=left
fraction is 5/total=5/8
BBBBBB
taken=1
fraction is parts out of whole
what is left
left=original-taken
taken=1
original=8
8-1=7
7=left
fraction is 7/total=7/8
if 3 slices taken total then 5/8 left
if 1 slice taken totl then 7/8 left
