6. Maria rides the bus every day. She bought a bus pass good for the month of October for $38.75. How much was Maria spending per day for the bus pass?

Maria is spending $1.25 for the bus pass everyday

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Maria paid $38.75 for the pass for a month

As she bought the pass for the month of October and October has 31 days, dividing the amount paid for pass by 31 will give us the per day cost that she is spending.

So,

Maria is spending $1.25 for the bus pass everyday

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.

solving with completing the square

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1
