Ellie took a taxi from her house to the airport. The taxi company charged a pick-up fee of $1.50 plus $5 per mile. The total fare was $76,50, not including the tip. Write and solve an equation which can be used to determine m, the number of miles in the taxi ride.


I dont understand this​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:   1.50+5m=76.50 m=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The required equation is 1.5 + 5m = 76.50 and distance travelled is 15 miles.

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions by connecting them with the equal sign = .

Now it is given that,

pick-up fee = $1.50 plus $5 per mile

Since, m is the number of miles in the taxi ride

So, equation for pick-up fee for m miles,

pick-up fee = $1.50 + $5m

Now total fare = $76,50

Thus, required equation to determine m is given as,

1.50 + 5m = 76.50

Subtracting 1.5 both the side we get,

1.50 + 5m - 1.5 = 76.50 - 1.5

⇒ 5m = 75

or, m = 75/5

⇒ m = 15

Thus, the required equation is 1.5 + 5m = 76.50 and distance travelled is 15 miles.

which of the following equations represents the graph?
A. y = 3/4x - 3

B. y = 3/4x + 4

C. y = 4/3x - 3

D. y = 4/3x + 4

Answers

Answer is d. y=4/3+4

Answer:

D) 4/3 x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is at point (0, 4) and the x--intercept is at point (-3, 0).

The equation for every straight line is y = mx + b. y is y, m is the slope, x is x, and b is the y value in the y-intercept

Now we will use the formula for slope, which is rise/run or more understandable , the change in y/change in x.

y2 - y1/x2 -x1

0 - 4/-3 - 0

-4/-3 = 4/3

Remember when I said the y-intercept was (0, 4) and b was the value of the y in the y-intercept? 4 is the value of y in the y-intercept.

The answer is 4/3x + 4.

Answers

Answer:

4 bottles of Water

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find how much each water costs. So, I created this equation below.

9/12=?

The answer to the equation is .75, or 75 cents.

So, we can now make yet another equation to find the amount to buy with 3 dollars.

3/.75=?

The answer to that equation is 4.

Thus, the answer is 4 bottles of water.

Answer:

  ? = 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

Long arc QR is twice the measure of inscribed angle QSR, so is 2×95° = 190°. That, together with the remaining short arcs ? and RS will make up the total circle of 360°.

  arc QR + arc RS + ? = 360°

  190° +75° +? = 360°

  ? = 360° -265° . . . . . . subtract 265° from both sides

  ? = 95°

Which function has an inverse that is a function?
b(x) = x2 + 3
d(x) = –9
m(x) = –7x
p(x) = |x|

Answers

Answer:

All but the second one

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the inverse of each function:

b(x)=x^2+3

y=x^2+3

x=y^2+3

x-3=y^2

sqrt(x-3)=y

This inverse function is a function

d(x)=-9

y=-9

This doesn't have an inverse function

m(x)=-7x

y=-7x

x=-7y

-1/7x=y

This inverse function is a function

p(x)=|x|

y=|x|

x=|y|

x=y

This inverse function is a function

Therefore, all but the second function have inverses that are functions

Answer:

All but the second one have inverse functions
