Answer:
Total charge

Total charge for 12 miles
=
$
20.75
Explanation:
Building the rule
The trick with algebra is to think what you would do with numbers, then substitute letters.
Mile number 1 costs
$
4.25
The rest of the miles
⇒
(
total miles
−
1
)
×
$
1.50
Putting this all together we have:
$
4.25
+
(
total miles
−
1
)
×
$
1.50
The question instructs that we are to use the letter m for the total miles so we now have:
$
4.25
+
(
m
−
1
)
×
$
1.50
This would be written as:
$
4.25
+
$
1.50
(
m
−
1
)
So
Total charge
=
$
4.25
+
$
1.50
(
m
−
1
)

The correct answer is 41.
The area of a paralellogram is bh
each dimention is multiplied by n
b turns to bn
h turns to hn
bh turns to (bn)(hn) or bnhn or bhn²
expression is bhnn or bhn² or bhn^2 (depends if the program will let you enter the exponent)
Answer:
$289.25
Step-by-step explanation:
First we should find out how much Ms. Maple would make in a week without overtime.
6.5 x 40 = 260
Now, let's figure out how much she makes per hour in overtime.
6.5 x 1.5 = 9.75
Now add up the hours of overtime.
9.75 x 3 = 29.25
Now we add the weekly wage to the overtime
260 + 29.25 = 289.25
For 40 hours of regular time at $6.50/hr and 3 hours of overtime at $9.75/hr, Ms. Maple will make $289.25 for the week.
