Movement in this problem can be thought as addition or subtraction. Going up a floor means taking your current floor and adding one. Same with going to a lower floor but with subtraction.

The first movement is going down the flight of stairs to reach the 2nd floor - 3.

Why are we using subtraction? Because we are going to a lower level.

2nd floor - 3 = -1 floor or some might consider this the basement.

Now, the next movement is going up 7 floors. This is going to be easy since we know what to do.

-1 floor + 7 = 6th floor

Hope this answer provides a clear explanation!

The Fall Festival charges $0.75 per ticket for the rides. Kendall bought 18 tickets for rides and spent a total of $33.50 at the

PIT_PIT [208]

Part (a)

The variable y is the dependent variable and the variable x is the independent variable.

Part (b)

The cost of one ticket is $0.75. Therefore, the cost of 18 tickets will be:

$0.75\times 18=13.5$ dollars

Now, we know that Kendall spent her money only on ride tickets and fair admission and that she spent a total of $33.50.

Therefore, the price of the fair admission is: $33.50-$13.50=$20

If we use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets, the linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for ride tickets and fair admission can be written as:

$y=0.75x+20$ ......Equation 1

Part (c)

The above equation is logical because, in general, the total cost of the rides will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought and that will be 0.75x. Now, even if one does not take any rides, that is when x=0, they still will have to pay for the fair admission, and thus their total cost, y=$20.

Likewise, any "additional" cost will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought as already suggested. Thus, the total cost will be the sum of the total ride ticket cost and the fixed fair admission cost. Thus, the above Equation 1 is the correct representative linear equation of the question given.

A lighthouse casts a shadow 32 meters long at the same time a nearby statue casts a shadow that is 9 meters long. If the statue

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so basically let's start with a proportion.

x/32 = 11.25/9

Cross multiply:

x * 9 = 32 * 11.25

9x = 32 * 11.25

9x = 360

Solving for variable 'x'.

Divide each side by '9'.

x = 40

I don't know if this is the correct answer, but it was based on my math. I hope this helps!

[Help asap] are these congruent?

PolarNik [594]

Yes. Both are at a right angle and both have the little tick on line AB and XY, so they must be congruent.
