A taxi ride costs 2.75 for the first quarter of a mile and 0.85 for each susequent quarter mile

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: equation would be
for the nth mile the cost would be
f(n)=(n-1)0.85+2.75
that way, for the 1st mile, the 0.85 doesn't apply
then for the next miles, it does
we can distribute it
0.85(n-1)=0.85n-0.85
so we have
f(n)=0.85n-0.85+2.75
f(n)=0.85n+1.9

the new equtation is cost for the nth mile is 0.85n+1.9

Find 2 numbers which multiply to give 45 and add up to 44

Answers

Lets first make the factors
1* 45 = 45
3 * 15 = 45
5 * 9 = 45
So, we can pick up our number from here..

45 * 1 = 45
45 - 1 = 44

So your 2 numbers are 1 and 45..

Hope this helps..  :) 
I think the number should be (-45), not 45. IF this is the case:
(45) + -1 = 44
(45) x -1 = -45
Having the two numbers 45 and 44 makes this equation impossible
Your two numbers are: 45, and -1

James has four and three fourths feet of rope he plans to cut off 1 1/2 feet from the Rope how much rope will be left

Answers

Well to put it in numbers, he has 4 3/4 feet of rope. He wants to cut off 1 1/2.

First we need to get common fractions. The way we do this is: is there anyway to make a 2, a four? Yes! There is! (If there is not, you have to find the Least common multiple)

How do we make this two a four? we times it by 2! But we have to be nice, and multiply the whole fraction, just to be fair.

So, we now have 4 3/4 rope, and James wants to get rid of 1 2/4 rope.

For starters, lets go easy. He has 4 foot, he wants one gone. So he has 3 feet of rope left.

But we still have the fractions! He has 3/4 rope, and we want to get rip of 2/4! so we subtract the numerators, and are left with 1/4 (its important you remember to keep the denominator in this case!)

So if we combine that, James will be left with 3 1/4 feet of rope!
