Answer:
I believe the answer would be 20 miles max for one passenger.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because if you create an equation out of this, knowing that only one passenger will be riding, you will get:
$3.00+$1.25x=$28 ($3 added too $1.25 times the number of miles (x) which equals the total amount you have ($28)).
x being the number of miles (so we need to calculate for x)
$3 + $1.25x = $28
-subtract 3 on both sides-
$1.25x=$28-$3
$1.25x=$25
-divide by 1.25 on both sides-
x=$25/$1.25
x=20 miles
Not sure if all calculations are correct, but I hope this helps :)!
Y = mx + c
-4 = 2(3) + c
-4 = 6 + c
-10 = c
y = mx + c
y = 2x - 10
Hence, the equation is y=2x-10.
7ft = 84in 84 ÷ 15 = 5.6 pieces he can cut from each board. Since .6 is not a whole piece measuring 15 inches long, he can only cut 5 pieces from each board.
So, 5 x 2 = 10
He would be able to cut 10 pieces measuring 15 inches long.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L be the larger number and s be the smaller one.
Then we have two equations.
(1) L – s = 25
(2) s = L/6 Multiply both sides by 6
6s = L Substitute the value for L in Equation(1)
6s – s = 25 Combine like terms
5s = 25 Divide both sides by 5
s = 5
The value of the smaller number is 5.
Since you have the answers given, just track their walking.
After one hour, one guy has covered 3mi and the other 4mi, which is in total 7, not 14
After 2 hours, one guy has covered 6mi and the other 8mi, which is 14mi
The algebraic way would be:
3x +4x = 14 *x being the hour
7x = 14
x =2
