<u>Part (a)</u>
The variable y is the dependent variable and the variable x is the independent variable.
<u>Part (b)</u>
The cost of one ticket is $0.75. Therefore, the cost of 18 tickets will be:
dollars
Now, we know that Kendall spent her money only on ride tickets and fair admission and that she spent a total of $33.50.
Therefore, the price of the fair admission is: $33.50-$13.50=$20
If we use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets, the linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for ride tickets and fair admission can be written as:
......Equation 1
<u>Part (c)</u>
The above equation is logical because, in general, the total cost of the rides will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought and that will be 0.75x. Now, even if one does not take any rides, that is when x=0, they still will have to pay for the fair admission, and thus their total cost, y=$20.
Likewise, any "additional" cost will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought as already suggested. Thus, the total cost will be the sum of the total ride ticket cost and the fixed fair admission cost. Thus, the above Equation 1 is the correct representative linear equation of the question given.
Answer:
Distance between the points A and B is 15.52 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
It has been given in the question that an airplane flies along a straight line from City A to City B.
Map has been laid out in the (x, y) coordinate plane and the coordinates of these cities are A(20, 14) and B(5, 10).
Distance between two points A'(x, y) and B'(x', y') is represented by the formula,
d = 
So we plug in the values of (x, y) and (x', y') in the formula,
d = 
d = 
d = 
d = 15.52
Therefore, distance between the points A and B is 15.52 units.
You can read 100 pages in 5 hours.
40 pages in 2 hours. We need to get the unit rate. In this case, we need to get the number of pages read in 1 hour.
40 pages ÷ 2 hours = 20 pages per hour.
20 pages per hours * 5 hours = 100 pages.
