Peter organizes morning hikes for his friends every Saturday. When the hiking trail is 3 km long, 19 friends join him and when the trail is 5 km long, only 7 friends tag along. There exists a linear relationship between the distance of the hiking trail (in km) and the number of friends who tag along. The number of friends depend on the distance of the trail. Determine how many friends will tag along to a hiking trail of 2 km. ​

25

Step-by-step explanation:

x = distance of the hike

y = number of friends coming along

so, we are looking for a linear relationship between these two.

y = ax + b

we need to find the factor a and the constant offset b.

19 = a×3 + b

7 = a×5 + b

7 - b = a×5

a = (7-b)/5

19 = (7-b)×3/5 + b

19 = (21 - 3b)/5 + b

95 = 21 - 3b + 5b

74 = 2b

b = 37

a= (7-37)/5 = -30/5 = -6

so, the relationship is

y = -6x + 37

for 2km hiking

y = -6×2 + 37 = -12 + 37 = 25 friends

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
