Questions (contd)
(a) For what amount of driving do the two plans cost the same?
(b) What is the cost when the two plans cost the same?
Answer:
(a) 100 miles
(b) $65
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Plan 1:
per mile
Plan 2:
per mile
Solving (a): Number of miles when both plans are equal
Represent the distance with x and the cost with y
So:
Plan 1:
Plan 2:
To solve (a), we equate both plans together; i.e.
Collect Like Terms
Solve for x
Hence, 100 mile would cost both plans the same
Solving (b): Cost when both plans are the same:
In this case, we simply substitute 100 for x in any of the y equation.
<em>Hence, the amount is $65</em>
Y would equal 12 if x were to equal 4. You can think of it as a proportion.
Answer:
4 / ($3.28) is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
As cost of one box is $3.28
the cost of four boxes will be 4 divided by the cost of one box....so that why the 4/($3.28) is correct option
You would change the whole number to a fraction by putting it over 1 and make the mixed number an improper fraction by multiplying the whole number part of the mixed number by the denominator and then and the numerator
Answer:
y = 0.87x + 0.02
Step-by-step explanation:
Euros as a function of dollars means that euros is y and dollars are x.
We are given 2 points: (4, 3.5) and (10, 8.72)
slope = (8.72 - 3.5)/(10 - 4)
slope = 5.22/6 = 0.87
y = 0.87x + b
3.5 = 0.87(4) + b
b = 0.02
y = 0.87x + 0.02
