If this were to be graphed, the independent variable would be the price of the ticket for the rides. The dependent variable would be the total cost.
The fair admission is not a variable because it is a constant price for every single person who goes into the fair.
The problem asks to use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets. In order to fully write out the equation, we have to figure out what the fair admission costs.
43.75 = 1.25(25) + b
*b represents the fair admission
Multiply 1.25 by 25
43.75 = 31.25 + b
Subtract 31.25 to find what b costs.
12.50 = b
The fair admission costs $12.50.
Solution: y = 1.25x + 12.50
Answer:
x = -24
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 7) = 2x - 3
3 * x = 3x
3 * 7 = 21
3x + 21 = 2x - 3
-21 -21
3x = 2x -24
-2x -2x
x = -24
Answer:
the answer is 19.06396
Step-by-step explanation:
there is no need for further explanation because the equation is already balanced
Answer:
x = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles add to 180 degrees
30+110 +x = 180
Combine like terms
140 +x = 180
Subtract 140 from each side
140+x-140 =180-140
x = 40
Answer:
(a) 0.4
(b) a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The area under the curve from x=4 to x=6 is 0.2 units high and 2 units wide, so is 0.2·2 = 0.4. (The area of a rectangle is the product of length and width.)
(b) The area is 0.2 and the height of the curve is 0.2, so the width of the region of concern is 0.2/0.2 = 1. (Again, area = height·width, or width = area/height.) 1 unit from the left end is found at X=3, so a = 3.
