Answer:
An equation for each situation, in terms of x
A = 35 + 3x
B = 80 + 2x
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B is 0 to 44.9 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A represent the amount Company A would charge if Piper drives x miles
Let B represent the amount Company B would charge if Piper drives x miles.
Company A charges an initial fee of $35 for the rental plus $3 per mile driven.
A= $35 + $3 × x
A = 35 + 3x
Company B charges an initial fee of $80 for the rental plus $2 per mile driven.
B = $80 + $2 × x
B = 80 + 2x
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B.
= A < B
35 + 3x < 80 + 2x
3x - 2x < 80 - 35
x < 45 miles
That is: any number of miles driven below 45 miles makes Company A cheaper than Company B
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B is 0 to 44.9 miles.
1 hour = 70 miles
3 hours = 70 x 3
= 210 miles
The answer would be 210 miles.

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question
It was estimated that because of people switching to Metro trains about 33000 of CNG 3300 tons of diesel and 21000 tons of petrol was saved by the end of year 2007 (I) find a fraction of the quantity of diesel saved to the quantity of petrol saved (ii) find the quantity of cng to the quantity of diesel saved
Answer:
(I) 11/70
(II) 1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Metro trains contain 330,000 tons of CNG
3300 tons of diesel was saved
21000 tons of petrol was saved at the end of 2007
(I) The fraction of the quantity of diesel saved to the quantity of petrol saved can be calculated as follows
= 3300/21000
= 11/70
(II) The fraction of the quantity of CNG saved to the quantity of diesel can be calculated as follows
= 3300/33000
= 1/10
<span>-3(5+8r)=33-8r
-15 - 24r = 33 - 8r
-15 - 33 = - 8r + 24r
-48 = 16r
-48/16 = r
-3 = r
r = -3</span>
