Thesis statement for expository essay.. the essay is how to do or make something. i decided to go with how to be a good employee. what’s a good way to start off.

Begin with a great hook, then transition into a definition and introduction to your topic and any background information. Your thesis should be at the end of the introduction paragraph, and only be one sentence. It should include what exactly your expository essay is going to be about.

Explanation: ok, first you’re going to need a hook. Something to keep the reader interested. Try something like “ever struggled to keep your poise while working?” Then like it says in the instructions, include background information and introduce and really define what your topic is. Your thesis, which goes at the end and is one sentence, is a very short and sweet summary of what your essay is about. I hope this is ok. Let me know if you need more help.

the man is cut in half.

explanation:

in the problem you wrote said that the taxi charges $0.070 per mile(which would be 7 cents per mile), but then in your suggested equation you have it as $0.70 per mile (which is 70 cents per mile).

the latter seems more realistic, so i will assume that the taxi costs $5.00 and charges $0.70 per mile with tolls costing an additional $3.50. and it asks you to find how far you can travel on $36.50.

let x the number of miles traveled. since the taxi charges $0.70 per mile, multiplying this by the miles traveled (x) will yield the cost of the taxi ride as far as how far it took you. then adding this amount to the cost of the taxi ($5.00) and the additional cost for the tolls ($3.50) will give you the total cost of the taxi ride ($36.50)

that is,

            (0.70)x + 5.00 + 3.50 = 36.50

adding the like terms on the left-hand side of this equation, we arrive at the following:

            (0.70)x + 8.50 = 36.50

subtracting 8.50 from both sides of the equation, we get:

            (0.70)x = 28.00

to solve for x, divide both sides of the equation above by the coefficient of x (that being, 0.70):

            x = 40

thus, you can travel up to 40 miles on $36.50
