Using proportions, it is found that each of the 6 people got $0.5.

<h3>Proportions:</h3>
  • This question is solved by <em>proportions</em>, using a rule of three.
  • $3.00 is shared between 6 people, which are Larry, Curly, Moe, Alvin, Simon and Theodore. How much did each people(1 person) get?

The <em>rule of three</em> is:

$3.00 - 6 people

$x - 1 person

Applying cross multiplication:

6x = 3

x = \frac{3}{6}

x = 0.5

Each of the 6 people got $0.5.

nekit [7.7K]

Answer: the speed of the current is 0.6 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the current.

James is kayaking. He can row 3 mph in still water. If he can travel 6 miles downstream. Assuming he went with the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 + x)

Time = distance/speed

Time taken to travel downstream is

6/(3 + x)

In the same amount of time, he can travel 4 miles upstream. Assuming he went against the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 - x). Time taken to travel upstream is

4/(3 - x)

Since the time is the same, then

6/(3 + x) = 4/(3 - x)

Cross multiplying, it becomes

6(3 - x) = 4(3 + x)

18 - 6x = 12 + 4x

4x + 6x = 18 - 12

10x = 6

x = 6/10

x = 0.6 mph

Drag steps in the given order to evaluate this<br> expression.<br> (-5)(2) – 2(-3) + 3
sesenic [268]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

using PEDMAS(parentheses, exponents, division, multiply, addition, subtraction) to solve the problem

First, multiply (-5)(2) and 2(-3)

(-5)(2) – 2(-3) + 3

=-10-(-6)+3

=-10+6+3

add -10+6

-4+3

Add -4+3

-4+3

=-1

Therefore, (-5)(2) – 2(-3) + 3 is equal to -1

Which relation represents a function?
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

(-2, 2), (0, 2), (7, 2), (11, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation must have no repeating x-values for it to be a function.

Set C does not have any repeating x-values, so it is a function.

Sets A, B, and D have repeating x-values, so they are not functions.

A: (0, 0), (2, 3), (2, 5), (6, 6)

B: (3, 5), (8, 4), (10, 11), (10, 6)

D: (13, 2), (13, 3), (13, 4), (13, 5)

<h3>Cost of renting;</h3>

According to the question;

  • The maximum amount you can spend for renting a motor scooter is $50
  • The rental fee is $12 and the cost per hour is $9.50.

The inequality to determine the maximum number of hours you can rent the scooter is;

  • $12 + $9.50h <= $50

Solving the inequality, we have;

  • $9.50h <= $38

h <= 4hours.
