Using a linear function, we have that:
a) The fixed cost is of $10.
b) The equation is: C = 10 + 12d.
c) The cost of an 18 km trip is $226.
d) The distance traveled is of 20 km.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
For this problem, the slope is of m = 12. When d = 5, C(d) = 70, hence we find the fixed cost as follows:
C(d) = 12d + b
70 = 60 + b
b = 10.
Hence the equation is:
C(d) = 12d + 10.
For a trip of 18 km, d = 18, hence the cost is:
C(12) = 12 x 18 + 10 = $226.
When the cost is of $250, the distance is found as follows:
250 = 12d + 10
12d = 240
d = 240/12
d = 20 km.

Well this depends on the the the size of the cover
Answer:
z = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum S of the interior angles of a regular polygon is given by the formula
S = (n-2) x 180 where n is the number sides
Here n = 9
So S = (9-2) x 180 = 7 x 180 = 1,260
There are 9 interior angles and each angle is (5z + 65)
So the sum of all 9 interior angles = 9 (5z + 65)
= 45z + 585
Set these equal to each other and solve for z
45z + 585 = 1260
45z = 675
z = 675/45 = 15
<span>My estimate was 2,808 is that a reasonable estimate and why
312*9
9*2=18>>9*10=90>>9*300=2700
2700+18+90=>>2,808</span>
