Answer:
total amount donated when aaron walks n miles = $2 + $3(n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Aaron participates in a walkathon for charity. He has a sponsor who has pledged a base donation of $2 for the first mile he walks and then a certain dollar amount for each additional mile he walks. Based on this pledge, if Aaron walks 8 miles, the sponsor will donate a total of $23 to the charity.
Write a formula that can be used to determine the amount of money this sponsor donates when Aaron walks n miles.
total amount sponsor pays = base donations + (additional miles walked after first mile x amount paid)
when Aaron walks 8 miles
additional miles = 8 - 1 = 7
23 = 2 + 7x
23 - 2 = 7x
x = 3
additional amount paid is $3
total amount donated when aaron walks n miles = $2 + $3(n-1)
Answer:
5n^2 - 3n - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
4n.5n - 4n.8 + 4.5n - 4.8
= 20n^2 - 32n + 20n - 32
= 20n^2 - 12n - 32
= 4 ( 5n^2 - 3n - 8 )
= 5n^2 - 3n - 8 [ answer ]
$790 because it would be 79 times 10
For x^3-11x^2+33x+45 , we can make it an equation so <span>x^3-11x^2+33x+45=0. Next, we can find out if -1 or -3 is a factor. If -1 is a factor, than (x+1) is factorable. Using synthetic division, we get
x^2-12x+45
___ ________________________
x+1 | x^3-11x^2+33x+45
- (x^3+x^2)
_________________________
-12x^2+33x+45
- (-12x^2-12x)
______________
45x+45
-(45x+45)
___________
0
Since that works, it's either B or D. We just have to figure out when
</span> x^2-12x+45 equals 0, since there are 3 roots and we already found one. Using the quadratic formula, we end up getting (12+-sqrt(144-180))/2=
(12+-sqrt (-36))/2. Since sqrt(-36) is 6i, and 6i/2=3i, it's pretty clear that B is our answer
