Step-by-step explanation:
x = the number
2x - 25 = x
2x = x + 25
x = 25
Answer:
y = 60x + 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of hours that we ski is a variable cost where each hour costs $60. On top of that, we have a fixed cost of $20 which stays the same no matter how long we ski.
So we can use an equation to find the totla cost C given the number of hours t as follows:
C(t) = 60t + 20
We can use this equation to find the cost of a skiing session by plugging in some value for t. For example, if we ski for 3 hours:
C(3) = 60(3) + 20 = $200
The equation can also be written using x and y and mean the same thing.
Assign variables to you unknowns.
c = $ cars
t = $ trucks
6c + 3t = 4800
8c + t = 4600
use substitution or elimination to solve the system of equations.
using elimination.. multiply second equation by -3 and add to the other to combine equations into one.
6c + 3t = 4800
-3(8c + t = 4600)
---------------------------
-18c + 0 = -9000
c = 9000/18
c = 500 $
use this in one of the equations to find the cost of a truck.
8(500) + t = 4600
4000 + t = 4600
t = 4600 - 4000
t = 600 $
question asks
2(500) + 3(600) =
1000 + 1800 = 2800 $

Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula with n=3.
h(3) = h(3-2) +h(3-1)
h(3) = h(1) +h(2)
h(3) = -6 +20 . . . . . substitute the given values
h(3) = 14
