Answer:

1.75(x-1)+2.50\leq 16.25

Step-by-step explanation:

A taxi costs $2.50 for the first mile and $1.75 for each additional mile.

Let x be the miles traveled

Taxi cost 2.50 for first mile , so we find the cost of x-1 miles

total cost for x miles traveled is

1.75(x-1)+2.50

Giselle has $16.25 in her wallet

total cost is less than 16.25

1.75(x-1)+2.50\leq 16.25

1. Contaminated water is subjected to a cleaning process. The concentration of the pollutants is initially 5 mg per liter of wat
Art [367]

Answer:

C(t)=5\cdot(0.9)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function is often used to model natural growing or decaying processes, where the change is proportional to the actual quantity.

An exponential decaying function is expressed as:

C(t)=C_o\cdot(1-r)^t

Where:

C(t) is the actual value of the function at time t

Co is the initial value of C at t=0

r is the decaying rate, expressed in decimal

The concentration of the pollutants starts at Co=5 mg/lt. We also know the pollutant reduces its concentration by 10% each hour. This gives us a value of r = 10% / 100 = 0.1

Substituting into the general equation:

C(t)=5\cdot(1-0.1)^t

Operating:

\boxed{C(t)=5\cdot(0.9)^t}

An aquarium 2 m long, 1 m wide, and 1 m deep is full of water. Find the work needed to pump half of the water out of the aquariu
loris [4]

Answer:

Workdone = 2450Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the top of the aquarium be at height 0.

Let the bottom of the aquarium be at height 1

F = mg = 2p◇x × g

F= 2000◇x × 9.8

F = 19600◇x

Workdone = 19600xdx

Total workdone = Integral (limits 0.5 -0)19600×dx

Total work = [9800x^2]^0.5

Total work= 9800× 0.5^2 = 2450 Joules

Fred and George ate 23 apples in July, 46 apples in August, 69 apples in September, and 92 apples in October. If this trend cont
VARVARA [1.3K]
The answer is 115

The sequence of the total apples look like this:

23 _ 46 _ 69_92_X

In which x is the total amount of apples eaten in the october.

From the sequence above we can see that each months gred and george consume additional of 23 apples

proof:
46 - 23 = 23
69 - 46 = 23
92 - 69 = 23

So, the amount of apples they will eat in November is:
92 + 23 = 115

The age of Tony and Vihaan are in the ratio of 8:7. Six years later, their ages will be in the ratio 10:9. Find their ages.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

24 and 21

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of their ages is 8 : 7 = 8x : 7x ( x is a multiplier )

In 6 years

8x + 6 : 7x + 6 = 10 : 9

Express the ratio in fractional form

\frac{8x+6}{7x+6} = \frac{10}{9} ( cross- multiply )

9(8x + 6) = 10(7x + 6) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

72x + 54 = 70x + 60 ( subtract 70x from both sides )

2x + 54 = 60 ( subtract 54 from both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

Thus

Tony = 8x = 8 × 3 = 24

Vihaan = 7x = 7 × 3 = 21

Is m=0.75d-2 proportional?
Bess [88]
No, a proportion will have a constant for the ratio m/d

If m = 0.75d, then ratio m/d = (0.75d)/d = 0.75

In this example, the ratio is (.75d-2)/d = 0.75 - (2/d).

Therefore, it is not proportional.
