Answer:

  f(x) = {0, x≤ 1; 4(x -1), 1 < x ≤ 6; 2.5x +5, x > 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

The hourly rate gives you the slope of the function in the relevant interval. The added constant is chosen to make the function continuous.

That is, at 1 hour, the charge is zero, so the next segment (4x+b) must have a value of b that makes the charge for 1 hour be zero. That will be b=-4.

Likewise, for more than 6 hours, the charge will be (2.5x+b), where b is chosen to make this expression match the charge for 6 hours. We know the charge for 6 hours is 4(6) -4 = 20, so b must match ...

  2.5(6) +b = 20

  b = 20 -15 = 5

The segment from 1 to 6 hours is f(x) = 4x -4.

The segment for more than 6 hours is f(x) = 2.5x +5.

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

Since the charge is zero for the first hour, the first segment could be considered to be charging only for hours after the first. That is, an alternate expression for hours 1–6 could be 4(x -1). Likewise, we could say the expression for hours more than 6 is 2.5(x +2).

Answer:

The top-left box should be 4x, and the bottom-left box should be 2.50x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the cost from 2 hours to 6 hours is 4 dollars per hour, it is 4x.

Likewise, because the cost over 6 hours is 2.50 dollars per hour, the cost is 2.50x.

Everything else seems fine.

Hope this helps!

Four friends plan to rent a car to go on a camping trip. They will drive a total of 450 miles. The cost of gasoline is​ $2.20 pe
Vlada [557]

Answer:

t = (m / g) * p

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given a variable for every part of the equation that we need we can go ahead and create the following equation where t equals the total cost

t = (m / g) * p

In this equation, we need to first divide the total number of miles by the number of miles that the car gets per gallon. This would give us the total number of gallons that the car would use during the entire trip. We then multiply the number of gallons by the price per gallon to get the final cost of the entire trip.

The sum of two numbers is 85. If four times the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number, the result is 5. Find the t
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

the larger number is 69

the smaller number is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the smaller number

y is the larger number

x + y = 85

y - 4x = 5

y = 5 + 4x

x + 5 + 4x = 85

5x = 80

x = 16

y = 69
