Let's forget for the tie being the cost ($3.5)of the 1st fifth of a mile:

Taxi charge excluding $3.5, is $13.95 - $3.5 = $10.45.

If each of the 5th (1/5) of a mile costs $0.55, then with $10.45 we can drive:
10.45/0.55 = 19 fifth of a mile. Add to that the 1st fifth = 20 fifth of a mile
 20 fifth = 20 x 1/5 = 4 miles (answer)

What is the slope intercept form when m = 1/2 &amp; b = 89 ?<br> Helppppppppp
Zina [86]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2}x + 89

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept form: y  = mx + b

y = (x , y)

x = (x , y)

m = slope = 1/2

b = y-intercept = 89

Plug in the corresponding numbers & variables to the corresponding variables:

y = (1/2)x + 89

y = \frac{1}{2}x + 89  is your answer.

A balloon is released from a height of 10 feet. The balloon climbs an additional 70% of its previous height as each minute passe
Ainat [17]
The initial height of the balloon is 10 feet which then increases by 70% to (10 ×1.7) = 17 feet, then to (17 × 1.7) =28.9 feet, and so fourth if the rate of increase is kept constant. Therefore, forming a geometric sequence such that to get any term in the sequence we use the formula ar∧(n-1), where a is the first term, r is the common ratio, and n is the term in the sequence. In this case a is 10 and r= 1.7 , to get the height in the fourth minute it means n =5 (for the first term there is 0 minutes, such that for 0 minutes n= 1)
Thus, 10 × 1.7 ∧ 4 = 83.521 feet.
Therefore, the answer is 83.521 feet
