<em><u>Part B (Taxi):</u></em>
12 miles = 0.5 miles + (115×0.1) miles
Rate: $2.40 + (115×0.20)
= $25.40
Total cost (with tip): $25.40 + $2
= $27.40
20 miles = 0.5 miles + (195×0.1) miles
Rate: $2.40 + (195×0.20)
= $41.40
Total cost (with tip): $41.40 + $2
= $43.40
50 miles = 0.5 miles + (495×0.1) miles
Rate: $2.40 + (495×0.20)
= $101.40
Total cost (with tip): $101.40 + $2
= $103.40
<em><u>Part B (Uber):</u></em>
12 miles (rate) = $1 + ($1.05×12)
= $13.60
Total cost (with tip): $13.60 + $2
= $15.60
20 miles (rate) = $1 + ($1.05×20)
= $22
Total cost (with tip): $22 + $2
= $24
50 miles (rate) = $1 + ($1.05×50)
= $53.50
Total cost (with tip): $53.50 + $2
= $55.50
<em><u>Part C</u></em>
Uber is a better mode of transportation. This is because given the same distance travelled for both the taxi and the Uber, Uber has a lower cost compared to the taxi.
Answer:
Base = x = 18ft
Height = x - 4 = 14ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of A the triangle is given by the following equation:
1) A = (base * heigth)/(2)
From this problem, we know that
base = x and that the height is 4ft less than the base, so height = base - 4 = x - 4.
We also know that the area is 126ft², so A = 126 ft². Now we can replace these informations in equation 1).
126 = (x(x-4))/2
x² - 4x = 252
x² -4x - 252 = 0
The roots of this equation are x = 18 or x = -14. But we know that a triangle cannot have negative dimensions, so we use x = 18.
The base is x, so base = 18ft.
Height is 4ft less than the base, so height equals 18-4 = 14ft
The answer that i got is C
Answer:
B)
Step-by-step explanation:
4y = 3x + 5 has a slope of 3/4
4y = 3x - 1 has a slope of 3/4
parallel lines have equal slopes
