Donna's company reimburses her expenses on food, lodging, and conveyance during business trips. The company pays $50 a day for f

ood and lodging and $0.60 for each mile traveled. Donna drove 200 miles and was reimbursed $1,620.
Part A: Create an equation that will determine the number of days x on the trip. (3 points)

Part B: Solve this equation justifying each step with an algebraic property of equality. (6 points)

Part C: How many days did Donna spend on this trip? (1 point)

A.

Multiply the number of days, x by 50 per day to get 50x.

Next multiply the number of miles driven to the amount she gets per mile: 0.60 x 200 = $120

Now add both together to equal the total of 1620.

The equation becomes: 50x +120 = 1620

B.

50x +120 = 1620

Step 1: subtract 120 from both sides ( subtraction property of equality):

50x = 1500

Step 2: Divide both sides by 50 ( division property of equality):

x = 1500 / 50

x = 30

C.

The trip lasted 30 days.

Malik's solution to the equation , when , is shown below. What error did Malik make first when solving the equation ? Malik did
Marianna [84]

Answer:

Malik substituted 60 for y instead of x.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given situation the computation of error that Malik make first when solving the equation is shown below:-

First, we will find the value of x

\frac{2}{5} x - 4(60) = 10

\frac{2}{5} x = 10 + 240

\frac{2}{5} x = 250

x = 625

Now, we have

\frac{2}{5} x - 4 y = 10

we will solve the above equation, to find the value of y

24 - 4y = 10

4y = 24 - 10

4y = 14

y = \frac{14}{4}

y = \frac{7}{2}

So, from the above calculation, the correct option is

Malik substituted 60 for y instead of x.

Given: FGKL is a trapezoid, m∠F=90°, m∠K=120°, FK=LK=a Find: The length of midsegment.
noname [10]

Answer:

  (3/4)a

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at K is 120°, so the angle at L is its supplement: 60°. That makes triangle FKL an equilateral triangle with a base of FL = a. The vertex at K is centered over the base, so is a/2 from G.

The midsegement length is the average of GK and FL, so is ...

  midsegment = (GK +FL)/2 = (a/2 +a)/2

  midsegment = (3/4)a

Tanzania [10]

Answer: Inductive Reasoning.

Had to complete the question first.

Maria is writing a list of numbers. She asked Susanne what the next number would be . After looking at the list: 7,14,21,28,35,42,_Susanne states,”the next number will be 49” inductive or deductive.

Step-by-step explanation:

inductive reasoning: This is known as a process of using observations and  examples to reach a conclusion or decision.

When ever a pattern or trend is used to predict the next possible outcome, you are using inductive reasoning. Just like from Maria list Susanne was able to predict that the next number would be 49 because the sequence increases with an interval of 7. ( 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49).
