Recently, the texas junior college teachers association annual conference was held in austin. at the time a taxi ride in austin was $ 1.75 $1.75 for the first 1 5 15 of a mile and $ 0.25 $0.25 for each additional 1 5 15 of a mile. if the distance from one of the convention hotels to the airport is 5.8 5.8 miles, how much will it cost to take a taxi from that hotel to the airport?
To calculate the total taxi fare in Austin, first calculate the initial fee for the first 1/15 mile and then the cost for each additional 1/15 mile. For 5.8 miles, the total cost amounts to $23.25, comprising a $1.75 initial fare and $21.50 for the subsequent distance.
Let's break down the cost of a taxi ride based on the given pricing structure. To find the total cost of a taxi ride for a given distance, we need to calculate the cost for the first 1/5 mile and the additional cost for the remaining distance.
The initial cost for the first 1/5 mile is given as $1.75.
We know the total distance is 5.8 miles. Since the first 1/5 mile is included in the initial cost, the distance to be charged in increments of 1/5 mile is:
[tex]\[ 5.8 - \frac{1}{5} = 5.8 - 0.2 = 5.6 \, \text{miles} \][/tex]
To find the number of 1/5 mile increments in 5.6 miles, divide by 0.2:
[tex]\[ \frac{5.6}{0.2} = 28 \][/tex]
Thus, there are 28 additional 1/5 mile increments.
Each additional 1/5 mile increment costs $0.25. Thus, the total cost for the additional distance is:
[tex]\[ 28 \times 0.25 = 7.00 \][/tex]
The total cost is the initial cost plus the cost for the additional distance:
[tex]\[ 1.75 + 7.00 = 8.75 \][/tex]
Thus, the total cost to take a taxi from the hotel to the airport, given a distance of 5.8 miles, is $8.75.

What did the prince do whenever he found a girl who might be cinderella
Final answer:
When a prince in fairy tales finds a potential Cinderella, he typically engages in a quest to determine if she is the one, reflecting the theme of male heroism and romantic pursuit found in traditional literature and films.
Explanation:
The passage raises the theme of romantic endeavors and the traditional role of women in classical literature and film, typically anchored within the context of royalty and fairy tales. When the prince in such stories finds a girl that could potentially be Cinderella, typically he would engage in a quest to discover if she truly is the one - often symbolized by a glass slipper fitting or other identifying item. This quest underscores the narrative of countless romantic tales where the male lead seeks to find and often rescue his female counterpart, a concept reflected in various Disney princess movies.
In the greater realm of literature and films, the prince often represents the chivalrous savior. This tradition is evident in the series of princess-centric stories produced by Disney, where a common girl becomes royalty by marriage or starts as a princess whose ultimate happiness is achieved through romance. Although contemporary stories may showcase more agency in their female protagonists, the motif of the male hero remains prevalent.
Express the complex number in trigonometric form. -2 + 2square root of three i
Answer:
The required trigonometric form is [tex]4(\cos(60)-i\sin(60))[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Complex number [tex]-2+2\sqrt{3}i[/tex]
To find : Express the complex number in trigonometric form?
Solution :
The complex number [tex]a+ib[/tex] trigonometric form is [tex]r(\cos\theta+i\sin\theta)[/tex]
Where, [tex]r=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}[/tex]
and [tex]\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{b}{a})[/tex]
On comparing with given complex number [tex]-2+2\sqrt{3}i[/tex]
a=-2 and [tex]b=2\sqrt{3}[/tex]
Substitute the value,
[tex]r=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}[/tex]
[tex]r=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(2\sqrt{3})^2}[/tex]
[tex]r=\sqrt{4+12}[/tex]
[tex]r=\sqrt{16}[/tex]
[tex]r=4[/tex]
[tex]\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{b}{a})[/tex]
[tex]\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{2\sqrt3}{-2})[/tex]
[tex]\theta=\tan^{-1}(-sqrt3)[/tex]
[tex]\theta=\tan^{-1}(\tan(-60))[/tex]
[tex]\theta=-60[/tex]
Substituting all values in the formula,
[tex]r(\cos\theta+i\sin\theta)[/tex]
[tex]4(\cos(-60)+i\sin(-60))[/tex]
[tex]4(\cos(60)-i\sin(60))[/tex]
Therefore, The required trigonometric form is [tex]4(\cos(60)-i\sin(60))[/tex]

What is log base 5(4*7 )+log base 5 of 2 written as a single log?
A.log base 5 of 21
B.log base 5 of 26
C.log base 5 of 30
D.log base 5 of 56
Answer:
D. log base 5 of 56
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, by the multiplication law of logarithm,
[tex]log_a(m)+log_a(n) = log_a(mn)[/tex]
Given expression is,
log base 5(4*7 )+log base 5 of 2
[tex]=log_5(4\times 7)+log_5(2)[/tex]
[tex]=log_5(28)+log_5(2)[/tex]
By the above property,
[tex]=log_5(28\times 2)[/tex]
[tex]=log_5(56)[/tex]
= log base 5 of 56
Hence, Option D is correct.
A box contains 16 transistors, 5 of which are defective. if 5 are selected at random, find the probability that
a. all are defective. and. none are defective.
A - all defective

Which sequence is modeled by the graph below? coordinate plane showing the points (1, 1) (2, 2) (3, 4) and (4, 8)
a. an = 1(2)n − 1
b. an = 2(1)n − 1
c. an = 1 + (2)n − 1
d. an = (2)(n − 1)
Answer: The correct option is d.
Explanation:
From the given information it is noticed that the coordinate plane showing the points (1, 1) (2, 2) (3, 4) and (4, 8).
The coordinates are in the form of (x,y), it means the value of xth term of the sequence is y.
The point (1,1) represents that the first term is 1. Similarly from (2, 2) (3, 4) and (4, 8) points we can say that the second term is 2, third term is 4 and fourth term is 8.
The sequence is 1,2,4,8.
It can be written as,
[tex]2^0,2^1,2^2,2^3[/tex]
Since the base is common that is 2 and the power is one less than the position of term. So the sequence is in the form of,
[tex]a_n=2^{n-1}[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is d.
If the person can't accommodate and the glasses is + 2.50d, at which distance will the person see clearly
Answer:
40 cm or 2/5 of a meter.
Step-by-step explanation:
A short-sighted person, at a positive diopter, will take an estimation of about 2.5 and make it the denominator by 1 as the numerator to find out the distance (in meters) that they can see clearly.
We can find the value of f, given the value for P:
P = +2.50
f = 1 / p = 1 / 2.50
(changing the units, it will be) ---> 100 / 2.50 which is equal to 40 cm.
Therefore, 40 cm which is 2/5 of a meter is the distance a person with glasses +2.5d can see clearly.

What is the radian measure of a 150° angle?
The radian measure of a 150° angle is (5/6) π rad, found by multiplying 150° by the conversion factor π/180.
To find the radian measure of a 150° angle, we use the relationship between degrees and radians. Recall that a full circle in degrees is 360° and in radians is 2π rad. Therefore, we can say that 360° equals 2π radians. To convert degrees to radians, we multiply the degree measure by the fraction π/180.
For a 150° angle, the calculation would be:
150° multiplied by the conversion factor π/180
150° * (π/180) = (150/180) * π = (5/6) * π rad
Thus, the radian measure of a 150° angle is (5/6) π rad.
