Start by taking Henri's total money amount, which is $14, then subtract the initial fixed charge.
14 - 1.25 = 12.75. Henri has $12.75 remaining to cover the mileage cost. Since the cab fares cost $0.75 per mile, divide 12.75 by 0.75 to find the miles.
12.75 / 0.75 = 17
So, Henri can afford a ride of 17 miles.

Hope this clarifies things

Solution:

Henri can afford to travel 17 miles by taxi

Step-by-step process:

Given: A taxi company charges a base fare of $1.25 plus $0.75 per mile. Henri has $14 available.

Find: How many miles Henri can afford within his budget.

Method:

Let x be the distance in miles.

Let y represent total cost.

Taxi charges include a fixed $1.25 fee and $0.75 for every mile traveled.

That is, y = 1.25 + 0.75x

Henri's budget equals $14

Therefore, y = 14

14 = 1.25 + 0.75x

Now solve the equation:

14-1.25=0.75x

12.75=0.75x

x=\frac{12.75}{0.75}

x=17

Hence, Henri can afford 17 miles.

Given f(x)=x−1−−−−√+2, what is the relationship between f(x) and f−1(x)? Drag and drop an inequality into each box to correctly
Inessa [12570]

Answer:

The domain of f(x) indicates x > -2, meaning the range of f-1(x) will be y > -2

The range of f(x) identifies y > -1, thus the domain of f-1(x) is x > -1

Sam invested $48,000 some at 6% interest and the rest at 10% . How much did he invest at each rate if he received $4,000 in inte
Zina [12379]

Step-by-step explanation of the answer:

Sam allocated $48,000 with 6% interest and the remainder at 10%. He earned a total of $4,000 in interest over the course of one year, and now we need to determine the amount invested at each rate.

Let us denote the amount invested at 6% as x.

(\frac{6}{100} \times x)+(\frac{10}{100} \times [48000-x])=4000

0.06x+0.1(48000-x)=4000

0.06x+4800-0.1x=4000

0.1x-0.06x=4800-4000

0.04x=800

x=20000

This results in the 6% investment being $20,000 and the 10% investment totaling = (48000 - 20000) = $28,000

A six-sided fair die is rolled 4 times in a row. What is the probability of getting a 4 only on the last trial?
babunello [11817]
P = Number of successful outcomes resulting in 4 on the final roll / Total outcomes.
Ways to get 4 only on the last attempt = 5 * 5 * 5 * 1 = 125 (the first three rolls have 5 options that are not 4, and for the last roll, only 4 is available (1 way)). The overall total number of outcomes = 6 * 6 * 6 * 6 = 1296. Thus, P = 125/1296.


I hope this helps you. Thank you for submitting your question.
