The table shows the cost of taking a rideshare trip. Which description correctly reflects the way the charges are calculated?

The table is an illustration of a linear function.

The description of the charges is: <em>A)  The ride requires a $14 initial fee, plus 50 cents per mile driven</em>

<em />

The base fee is the charges, when the number of miles is 0

From the table;

y = $14, when x = 0

So, the base fee is $14

Next, we calculate the slope (m)

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

From the table, we have:

m = \frac{16.5 - 14}{5-0}

m = \frac{2.5}{5}

m = 0.5

The above means that:

The cost per mile is $0.5 (i.e. 50 cents)

Hence, the description of the charges is: <em>A)  The ride requires a $14 initial fee, plus 50 cents per mile driven</em>

How can you determine the difference between an arithmetic and geometric sequence if you are given the first 4 terms of the sequ
Bess [88]
Compute successive differences of the terms.

If they are all the same, the sequence is arithmetic and the common difference is the difference you have found.

If successive pairs of differences have the same ratio, the sequence is geometric and the common ratio is the ratio you have determined.


Example of arithmetic sequence:
  1, 3, 5, 7
Successive differences are 3-1 = 2, 5-3 = 2, 7-5 = 2. All the differences are 2, which is the common difference of the sequence.

Example of geometric sequence:
  1, -3, 9, -27
Successive differences are -3-1 = -4, 9-(-3) = 12, -27-9 = -36. These are not the same, so the sequence is not arithmetic. Ratios of successive pairs of differences are 12/-4 = -3, -36/12 = -3. These are the same, so the sequence is geometric with common ratio -3.

Karolina [17]
Imagine the path of the tip of the pendulum as an arc of a circle. The circle would have a radius of 4 feet and the arc would be 20 degrees. To calculate the length of the arc, you need to find 20 degrees of the circumference. 

Length of Arc = 2*pi*R*Degree of arc/360 
Length of Arc = 2*pi*4*20/360 
Length of Arc = 8pi * 1/18 
Length of Arc = 4/9 pi feet 
<span>Length of Arc ~ 1.396263402 feet
