A truck can be rented from Company A for $90 a day plus $0.40 per mile. Company B charges $60 a day plus $0.70 per mile to rent the same truck.
Find the number of miles in a day at which the rental costs for Company A and Company B are the same.

Answers

Answer 1

The number of miles in a day at which the rental costs for Company A and Company B are the same will be 10 miles.

How to calculate the value?

Let the number of miles be represented by x.

Therefore the equation for the first company will be 90 + 0.4m

The equation for the second company will be 60 + 0.7m

Therefore, we will equate them. This will be:

90 + 0.4m = 60 + 0.7m

Collect like terms

90 - 60 = 0.7m - 0.4m

0.3m = 30

m = 30/0.3

m = 10

The number of miles will be 10 miles.

A power company calculates a person's monthly bill from the number of
kilowatt-hours (kwh), x, used.
the function b(x)

Answers

The bill for a person who uses 560 kWh in a month is $74. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

The given functions are

b(x) = 0.15x;  x ≤ 360

b(x) = 0.10(x - 360) + 54;  x > 360

What is the function?

Functions are the fundamental part of calculus in mathematics. The functions are the special types of relations. A function in math is visualized as a rule, which gives a unique output for every input x. Mapping or transformation is used to denote a function in math. These functions are usually denoted by letters such as f, g, and h.

For a person who uses 560 kWh, it means that:

x > 360

So, we use the following function to determine the bill

b(x) = 0.10(x - 360) + 54

Substitute 560 for x

b(560) = 0.10(560 - 360) + 54

⇒b(560) = 74

Hence, the bill for a person who uses 560 kWh in a month is $74. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

Help pls and pls give explanation!

Answers

Sam pays 680$ per year for his current car and will pay 544$ per year if he buys the new car as per dealer's claim.

According to the question statement, A car dealer claims that buying a new car Sam will have to pay 20% less for gas than for the car he currently owns. The car Sam currently drives costs 15% less to gas than Don's car. Don pays 800$ per year for gas car. It is assumed that all cars will be travelling the same distance.

We are supposed to find out how much will Sam pay for his current car.

To solve this question, we need to know about the concept of percentage of any number.

Don currently pays 800$ per year on gas.

Sam pays 15% less than what Don pays, Therefore the money Sam is paying currently will be 800$ minus 15% of 800$ i.e.,

= [tex]800 - \frac{15}{100} *800[/tex]

= [tex]800-120[/tex]

= [tex]680[/tex]$

680$ per year is the money Sam is spending currently.

If he buys the new car, according to the claim of dealer, he will pay 20% less than what he is paying currently i.e., 680$ - 20% of 680$

= [tex]680-\frac{20}{100} *680\\[/tex]

= [tex]680 - 136[/tex]

= [tex]544[/tex]$

Therefore, Sam pays 680$ per year on gas on his current car but if he buys the new car he will pay 544$ per year on gas.

Percentage:  In math, a percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100 i.e., if we are supposed to find 20% of 80 then [tex]\frac{20}{100} *80=16[/tex]

Answers

Each child would get 1/12 th part of the whole watermelon.

For given question,

8 children have to share two thirds of a watermelon equally .

This means we need to equally distribute 2/3 of whole watermelon to 8 children.

To divide 2/3 part of of a watermelon equally into 8 parts, we need to divide 2/3 by 8.

(2/3) ÷ 8

= [tex]\frac{(\frac{2}{3} )}{8}[/tex]

We know that in 8 = 8/1

So, we rewrite the denominator of above fraction as,

for parts. The total was $547.75. Which equation or tape diagram could be used to
represent the context if a represents the cost of labor per hour?

Answers

The equation is 547.75 = 4.25a + 144 so the tape diagram in option D is the correct answer.

What is an equation?

A mathematical equation that represents the relationship of two expressions on either side of the sign.

It has one or more variables and equal to symbol.

Example: 3x – 5 = 5

We have,

Time spent fixing the computer = 4.25 hours

Cost of parts = $144

Total cost = $547.75

Cost of labor per hour = a

Since the cost of labor per hour is 'a' cost of labor for 4.25 hours is:

= 4.25 x a

= 4.25a

We can write an equation as:

547.75 = 4.25a + 144

You want to make 20 plates and have 30 bags of shredded cheese. How can you determine how much cheese to put on each plate so that each plate has the same amount of shredded cheese?

Answers

The amount of cheese in each plate = 1.5x

There are 30 bags of shredded cheese.

Let 'x' be the quantity of cheese in each bag. Then,  

The total quantity of cheese in 30 bags = 30x

Number of plates = 20 plates

We need to determine the quantity of cheese put on each plate so that each plate has the same amount of shredded cheese.

For this we just need to divide the total amount of shredded cheese by the number of plates.

The equal amount of cheese in each of 20 plates = 30x/20

                                                                                   = 3x/2

A pet shop sold 20 rabbits for $192. some of the rabbits sold for $7 each and the rest for $11 each. how many rabbits were sold at each price?

Answers

There are 7 rabbits sold for $7 and 13 rabbits sold for $11.

Substitution method:

In the substitution method, we must substitute the value of one given variable in terms of the other given variable and find the solution.

Given,

A pet shop sold 20 rabbits for $192.

Some of the rabbits sold for $7 each and the rest for $11 each.

Here we need to find the number of rabbits sold in each case.

Let us consider x be the number of rabbits sold for $7 and y be the number of rabbits sold for $11.

We know that, the total number of rabbits sold = 20.

So, it can be written as,

=> x + y = 20

Here we have to rewritten this equation as,

=> x = 20 - y ----------------------(1)

We know that, total amount for sold rabbits = 192

So, it can be written as,

=> 7x + 11y = 192 -----------------------(2)

Apply the value of x to equation (2),

Then we get,

=> 7(20 - y) + 11y = 192

=> 140 - 7y + 11y = 192

=> 4y + 140 = 192

=> 4y = 192 - 140

=> 4y = 52

=> y = 52/4

=> y = 13.

Apply the value of y on the equation (1),

Then we get,

=> x = 20 - y

=> x = 20 - 13

=> x = 7

Therefore, there are 7 $7 rabbits and 13 $11 rabbits are sold.
