You can solve this question using two different methods. One is obviously a hit and trial method in which you keep guessing a number which gives the same amount of total cost. Second is forming two different equations and then solving them using simultaneous methods learnt.
The correct answer is 75 miles. I used the hit and trial method. You can see 20 + 75 * 0.35 = 46.25 and similarly 35 + 75 * 0.15 = 46.25. Hence the same cost.
Answer: y = 5x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of goods sold - expenses = net income
do this for each year and compare.
You Just want to get Fahrenheit alone on one side of the equal sign. Your teacher forgot to use parenthesis. The correct equation for Celsius to Fahrenheit is: 
Which will give you a completely different answer....

We will solve it using what is given:
C = (5/9)F - 32
C + 32 = (5/9)F
9(C + 32) = 5F
(9/5)(C + 32) = F
** If they mark you wrong, and try to say the answer is F = (9/5)C + 32 then they shouldn't be teaching math, and you should point out the fact there are no parenthesis around the F - 32 in the given formula.
X-y is positive when y is further away from 0, compared to x. In other words, when y is a larger negative
For example
x = -2
y = -5
x-y = -2-(-5) = -2+5 = 3
