Define a variable and write an algebraic expression to model each situation: 1) what is the total cost of buying several shirts at $24.95 each? 2)the number of gal of water used to water trees is 30 times the number of trees. 3)what is the number of marbles left in a 48-marble bag after some marbles have been given away? 4) what is the cost of buying several pairs of pants at $32.95 per pain?

It is suitable to start with a "let ..." statement defining the meaning of the variable(s) you use in the problem. Here, problems 1, 2, 4 have you multiply the variable by some constant representing a unit rate. In problem 3, you additionally have to perform some math to find an amount remaining.

1) Let s represent the number of shirts purchased at 24.95 each. Then the total cost in dollars is ...

... 24.95s

2) Let t represent the number of trees watered. Then the total number of gallons of water used is ...

... 30t

3) Let q represent the quantity of marbles given away. Then the number remaining is ...

... 48 - q

4) Let p represent the number of pairs of pants purchased at 32.95 each. Then the total cost in dollars is

... 32.95p

answer: 25.4 units

step-by-step explanation: radius = 12.7 units

diameter = twice the radius

diameter = 12.7 x 2

= 25.4

a reflection across the x-axis , followed by the by a reflection across the y-axis , and then a scale dilation of 0.5 .
