Answer:

133 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

3.75 + 3 = 6.75

round to 6.80

20 - 6.80 = 13.2

13.2 / 0.1  = 132

132 + 1 the first mile that you payed $3.75

Answer:

Total charge

=

4.25

+

$

1.50

(

−

1

)

Total charge for 12 miles  

=

 

$

20.75

Explanation:

Building the rule

The trick with algebra is to think what you would do with numbers, then substitute letters.

Mile number 1 costs

$

4.25

The rest of the miles

⇒

(

total miles

−

1

)

×

$

1.50

Putting this all together we have:

$

4.25

+

(

total miles

−

1

)

×

$

1.50

The question instructs that we are to use the letter m for the total miles so we now have:

$

4.25

+

(

m

−

1

)

×

$

1.50

This would be written as:

$

4.25

+

$

1.50

(

m

−

1

)

So

 Total charge

=

$

4.25

+

$

1.50

(

m

−

1

)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Determine the charge for 12 miles

Total charge

=

$

4.25

+

$

1.50

(

12

−

1

)

Total charge

=

$

4.25

+

$

1.50

(

11

)

Total charge for 12 miles

=

$

4.25

+

$

16.50

 

=

 

$

20.75

velikii [3]
Since 3/5 of the students wore blue shirts and 1/4 of the students wore white shirts, you need to find the Total of 3/5 and 1/4.
First, step find a common denominator for both fractions
EXAMPLE: 3/5+1/4=Total 3/5 becomes 12/20 and 1/4 becomes 5/20.
Second, notice that both fractions now have the same denominator, now you can find the sum of both fractions which is 17/20
Finally, you need to check if the fraction can be SIMPLIFIED if not then the fraction is already im simplest form.
THE ANSWER: 17/20 of students wore either a blue or white shirt on Friday
