Let t be the number of tolls they crossed.
Amount they spent at each toll = $1.75.
Amount they spent at gas station = $28.
Let C be the total amount they spent on gas and tolls.
If they crossed 1 toll, then
C = 28 + 1.75(1).
If they crossed 3 tolls, then,
C = 28 + 1.75(3)
If they crossed t tolls, then,
C = 28 + 1.75t
Here, the terms are 28 and 1.75t and the factors are 1.75 and t.
Answer:
y = 1/2 (2)x
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the equation y = abx , substitute both of your given points into that equation.
2 = ab2 and 4 = ab3 Solve each equation for a.
2⁄b2 and 4⁄b3 = a Therefore, 2⁄b2 = 4⁄b3
Cross multiply: 2b3 = 4b2 Divide both sides by b2
2b = 4 a = 2/4 = 1/2
b = 2
The two coordinates' x variables are the same, while the y variables change. This means that it is reflected over the x axis. Reflecting over the y axis would cause a change in the x variable, as it would have to move sideways, so this can't be the case since the x variable stays as 4 even after the reflection.
