Answer:

$45.26

Step-by-step explanation:

30% × 61 = 18.3

= $18.30 off, 61 - 18.3 = 42.7

6% × 42.7 = 2.562

= 42.7 + 2.562

= 45.26

Answer:

Tim

Step-by-step explanation:

Tim drove 62 miles per hour you get this by dividing 217 by 3.5 and then you divide Emily's. 244/4 and you get 61

You bike 1 mile the first day of your training, 1.3 miles the second day, 1.9 miles the third day, and 3.1 miles the fourth d

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

19.9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have:

$d_1=1 mi$ is the distance travelled during the 1st day

$d_2=1.3 mi$ is the distance travelled during the 2nd day

$d_3=1.9 mi$ is the distance travelled during the 3rd day

$d_4=3.1 mi$ is the distance travelled during the 4th day

We notice that the difference between the distance travelled on the (n+1)-th day and the distance travelled on the n-th day doubles every day. In fact:

$d_2-d_1=0.3\\d_3-d_2=2\cdot 0.3 = 0.6\\d_4-d_3=2\cdot 0.6 = 1.2$

Which can be rewritten using the general formula:

$d_{n+1}-d_n=2(d_n-d_{n-1})$

This means that

$d_{n+1}=d_n+2(d_n-d_{n-1})$

By applying this formula recursively, we can find the 7th term, which is the distance travelled on the 7th day:

$d_1=1\\d_2=1.3\\d_3=1.9\\d_4=3.1\\d_5=3.1+2\cdot 1.2=5.5\\d_6=5.5+2\cdot 2.4=10.3\\d_7=10.3+2\cdot 4.8=19.9 mi$

So, the distance travelled on the 7th day is 19.9 miles.

Given points A (1, 2/3), B (x, -4/5), and C (-1/2, 4) determine the value of x such that all three points are collinear

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

$x=\frac{83}{50}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the three points are collinear

then

$m_A_B=m_A_C$

we have

A (1, 2/3), B (x, -4/5), and C (-1/2, 4)

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

step 1

Find the slope AB

we have

$A(1,\frac{2}{3}),B(x,-\frac{4}{5})$

substitute in the formula

$m_A_B=\frac{-\frac{4}{5}-\frac{2}{3}}{x-1}$

$m_A_B=\frac{\frac{-12-10}{15}}{x-1}$

$m_A_B=-\frac{22}{15(x-1)}$

step 2

Find the slope AC

we have

$A(1,\frac{2}{3}),C(-\frac{1}{2},4)$

substitute in the formula

$m_A_C=\frac{4-\frac{2}{3}}{-\frac{1}{2}-1}$

$m_A_C=\frac{\frac{10}{3}}{-\frac{3}{2}}$

$m_A_C=-\frac{20}{9}$

step 3

Equate the slopes

$m_A_B=m_A_C$

$-\frac{22}{15(x-1)}=-\frac{20}{9}$

solve for x

$15(x-1)20=22(9)$

$300x-300=198$

$300x=198+300$

$300x=498$

$x=\frac{498}{300}$

simplify

$x=\frac{83}{50}$
