If x + y = 6, then solve for y to get: y = 6 - x.
Now replace y with 6 - x in both equations.
(5x)/3 + 6 - x = c
2(6 - x) = c - 4x
The upper equation is solved for c.
Now we solve the lower equation for c.
c = 2(6 - x) + 4x
c = 12 - 2x + 4x
c = 2x + 12
Since we have two equations solved for c, we substitute to get
(5x)/3 + 6 - x = 2x + 12
This is an equation in only x, so we can solve for x.
(5x)/3 - 3x = 6
5x - 9x = 18
-4x = 18
x = -9/2
Now we solve for y.
x + y = 6
-9/2 + y = 6
y = 9/2 + 12/2
y = 21/2
Now we solve for c.
c = (5x)/3 + y
c = (5 * (-9/2))/3 + 21/2
c = -45/6 + 21/2
c = -15/2 + 21/2
c = 6/2
c = 3
Answer: c = 3
Let

where we assume |r| < 1. Multiplying on both sides by r gives

and subtracting this from
gives

As n → ∞, the exponential term will converge to 0, and the partial sums
will converge to

Now, we're given


We must have |r| < 1 since both sums converge, so


Solving for r by substitution, we have


Recalling the difference of squares identity, we have

We've already confirmed r ≠ 1, so we can simplify this to

It follows that

and so the sum we want is

which doesn't appear to be either of the given answer choices. Are you sure there isn't a typo somewhere?
Choice 1. He did not square 40, he just multiplied by 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
The hypotenuse measures c cm while the other sides are 40 cm and 9 cm each.
Step 2:
According to the Pythagorean theorem,




This is the correct solution to the given problem. Hans did not square 40, he just multiplied by 2. Which is the first option.
Answer:
14 rides
Step-by-step explanation:
16 = 0.79x + 4.5
11.5 = 0.79x
x = 14.55 or 14
rounding down because it can't go over $16.
0.79(14) + 4.5 = $15.56
