<h3>Answer:  $4,680  (choice B)</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

x% = x/100

65% = 65/100 = 0.65

So 65% in decimal form is 0.65

We use this to find the amount Sam paid for the car

65% of 7200 = 0.65*7200 = 4,680 dollars

--------------

Here's an alternative way to show your work

part/whole = percent/100

x/7200 = 65/100

x/7200 = 0.65

x = 0.65*7200

x = 4680

Ultimately we end up with 0.65*7200 and that's how we lead to the same answer as before. You could cross multiply like so

x/7200 = 65/100

x*100 = 7200*65

100x = 468000

x = 468000/100

x = 4680

So there are many paths to the same answer.

Elvira and Aletheia live 3.1 miles apart on the same street. They are in a study group that meets at a coffee shop between their
Sophie [7]

Answer:

  • Elvira's speed: 3.0 mph
  • Aletheia's speed: 2.4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "e" and "a" represent the speeds of Elvira and Aletheia, respectively. Then the total distance they cover is ...

  distance = speed × time

  (1/2)e + (2/3)a = 3.1

And the relationship between their speeds is ...

  e - a = 0.6

__

To solve this system, we can double the first equation and subtract the second to get ...

  2(1/2e +2/3a) -(e -a) = 2(3.1) -(0.6)

 7/3a = 5.6 . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  a = (3/7)(5.6) = 2.4 . . . multiply by 3/7

  e = a +0.6 = 3.0 . . . . . Elvira's speed is 0.6 mph more than Aletheia's

Elvira's walking speed is 3.0 miles per hour; Aletheia's is 2.4 miles per hour.

A taxi company charges $1.00 for the first mile (or part of a mile) and 20 cents for each succeeding tenth of a mile (or part).
meriva

Step-by-step explanation:

solving functions separately.

1st:  from given data taxi charges $1.00 for the first mile.so it is first rule of function.

y_{1} =1 , 0

2nd: the company charge $0.20 per tenth of a mile.so 2nd rule of the function will  be

y_{2} =1+0.2.10(x-1)

simplifying

y_{2} =1+2(x-1)

y_{2} =x+2x-2

y_{2} =x ,  1

piece wise function is f(x)={2 ,  0<x<1

                                              {x ,  1<x<2

the graph of the function is given below
