Paul is a cab driver and he charges a base fee of $8.80 for every fare, plus $1.20 for every mile traveled. If n represents the number of miles traveled, which of the following sentences can be used to find C, the amount Paul charges for each fare?
C = 8.8 - 1.2n
C = 8.8n + 1.2
C = 8.8 + 1.2n
C = 8.8 × 1.2n

The height of a ball that was batted into the air at 160 feet per second is a function of t, the time in seconds after the ball was hit. The height is determined by subtracting 16 times the square of t from 160 times t. Which equation can be used to find t when the ball is 300 feet high?
160(t2 - t) = 300
160t2 - 16t = 300
(160 - 16)t2 = 300
160t - 16t2 = 300

anonymous · Answer

160t - 16t2 = 300 should do it.
