3 1/2 divided by 5. this would give you .7 pounds of candy per person
CF = CD + DF (since D is simply a point on the line, and C to that point added onto F to that point is CF), so 4y-9+2y-7=14. Adding it up, we get 6y-16=14 and adding by 16 we get 30=6y. Dividing both sides by 6, we get y=5. Plugging that into DF, we get 10-7=DF=3
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)
to average 60 mph for 2 laps his total speed needs to equal 60 x 2 = 120
his first lap was 40 so his 2nd lap needs to be 120-40 = 80 mph
