The maximum number of miles that Gabrielle can drive is 134 miles.

<h3>What is the maximum number of miles she can drive?</h3>

The total miles she can drive is a function of the money she has, the cost per mile and the cost to rent the car.

The equation that can be used to show this relationship is :

Number of  miles = (amount she has - cost of renting) / cost per mile

($40 - $19.95) / 0.15 = 134 miles

Answer:

  133 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The limited budget gives rise to an inequality that can be solved for the maximum number of miles.

__

<h3>setup</h3>

The rental cost for m miles will be the sum of the fixed charges and the product of the mileage charge and the number of miles.

  cost = 19.95 +0.15m

We want this to be no greater than 40, so we have the inequality ...

  40 ≥ 19.95 +0.15m

<h3>solution</h3>

This two-step inequality can be solved in the usual way:

  20.05 ≥ 0.15m . . . . . step 1, subtract 19.95 from both sides

  133.667 ≥ m . . . . . . . step 2, divide by the coefficient of the variable

The maximum whole number of miles Gabrielle can drive is 133.

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. −16x2 + 24x + 16 = 0

-8(2x2 - 3x - 2) = 0

-8(2x + 1 )(x - 2) = 0

x = -0.5, 2.

So the x-intercepts are (-0/5, 0) and (2, 0).

B.  As the leading coefficients is negative (-16) the vertex of the graph will be a Maximum.

To find its coordinates we convert the function to vertex form:

f(x) =  −16x2 + 24x + 16

=  -16(x^2 - 1.5x) + 16

Completing the square on  contents of the parentheses:

= -16 [(x - 0.75)^2  - 0.75^2] + 16

= -16(x - 0.75)^2  - 16 * -0.75^2 + 16

= -16(x - 0.75)^2 + 9 + 16

= -16(x - 0.75)^2 + 25.

So the coordinates of the vertex are (0.75, 25)

A jewlery supply shop buys silver chains from a manufacturer for c dollars each, and then sells the chains at a 57% markup
kirza4 [7]

11. 57% = 0.57

12.  retail price = c + (0.57c)

13.  retail price = 45 + (0.57 x 45)

retail price = 45 + 25.65

retail price = $70.65

14. 57% was added to the original price of the chain which is $25.65
