Answer:

6 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, lets make an equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)

The initial fee is $6. This is our y-intercept (b) as it is unchanging.

Our slope (m) would be $3, as it changes value per mile, which will be represented by x.

$24 was the total fare, so this is our y.

We have:

24 = 3x + 6

Subtract 6 from both sides.

24 - 6 = 3x + 6 - 6

We get:

18 = 3x

Divide by 3 on both sides.

18/3 = 3x/3

We get:

6 = x

So, Mike traveled 6 miles.

So this question is already perfectly set up. Since the 6 and -6 cancel you’ll be left with 5x + 3x which is 8x and -32 + 48 which is 16. 8x=16. Isolate x to get that x=2. Plug 2 back into one of the equations. 5(2) -6y = -32. Solve for y now. -10-32 equals -42. Divide -42 by -6 to get 7. So the final coordinate where the two equations will intersect is (2,7)

Find the missing coefficient (4d—4)(3d—2)=12d^2+ []d+8
sergij07 [2.7K]
<span>(4d-4)(3d-2)=12d^2 + []d + 8

Using FOIL method:
4d x 3d = 12d^2
4d x  -2 = -8d
-4 x 3d = -12d
-4 x -2 = 8

Adding common terms, we have:
-8d + -12d = -20 d

The missing coefficient is -20.</span>
