The cost of a taxi ride is $5 plus 50 cents per mile. write an algebraic expression that models the cost of a taxi ride of m miles. a.) m( 5 + 0.5 ) b.) 5 + 0.5/m c.) 5 + 0.5m d.) 5m + 0.5

You have 5 dollars that it costs PLUS 0.50 PER mile.

Writing your equation...

0.5m (m=per mile extra)

5(how much it initially costs)

0.5m+5

Thus, your answer, C.

Hope this helps!

use the power rule  

( a b ) n = a n b n

to distribute the exponent.

apply the product rule to  

3 x 2 y 3 . ( 3 x 2 ) 2 ( y 3 ) 2

apply the product rule to  

3 x 2 . 3 2 ( x 2 ) 2 ( y 3 ) 2

raise  

3

to the power of  

2 . 9 ( x 2 ) 2 ( y 3 ) 2 multiply the exponents in   ( x 2 ) 2

.

apply the power rule and multiply exponents,  

( a m ) n = a m n . 9 x 2 ⋅ 2 ( y 3 ) 2

multiply  

2   by   2 . 9 x 4 ( y 3 ) 2

multiply the exponents in  

( y 3 ) 2 .

apply the power rule and multiply exponents,  

( a m ) n = a m n . 9 x 4 y 3

⋅

2

multiply  

3   by   2 . 9 x 4 y 6
