Skylar owns a trucking company. For every truck that goes out, Skylar must pay the driver $11 per hour of driving and also has a

n expense of $3 per mile driven for gas and maintenance. On one particular day, the driver drove an average of 30 miles per hour and Skylar's total expenses for the driver, gas and truck maintenance were $909. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of hours the driver worked and the number of miles the truck drove. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answer:

The set of needed equations is

h = 30 m

11 m +  3  h = 909  where

the driver drove for m hours.

h : distance covered in m hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, according to the question:

The per hour rate of driver  = $11

The gas maintenance expense = $3 per mile.

The total distance covered by drives is 30 miles per hour.

The total  expenses paid to driver  = $909

Now, let us assume the driver drove for m hours.

The average speed of driver was 30 miles / hour

⇒ Driver covers 30 miles in 1 hour

SO, distance covered in m hours  = h = m x 30 = 30 m

or, h = 30 m

So,according to the question, the total amount paid :

Charges of m hours driving + maintenance charges for h miles

= 11 m + 3( h)

or, 11 m +  3  h = $909

Hence the set of needed equations is

h = 30 m

11 m +  3  h = 909

It is 3/2 • 3/4 because you have to make the mixed number an improper fraction. Theb you would solve 3/2 • 3/4 and get 9/8 and that simplified is 1 1/8

Is the ordered pair (-2, 1) a solution to the equation - 3x + y = 5? <br>No <br>Yes​
Otrada [13]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug (-2,1) into -3x+y=5. This will make it -3(-2)+(1)=5. This is equal to 6+1=5. 7=5. 7 is not equal to 5. Therefore, (-2,1) is not a solution to the equation -3x+y=5.

NEED HELP IN FINDING AREA
Aliun [14]

Answer:

809 km²

Step-by-step explanation:

I can split this into 3 rectangles. One is 25 by 17, another is 24 by 13, and the last one is 6 by 12. (I had gotten 13 for the second rectangle because 25 - 12 = 13.)

(25 * 17) + (24 * 13) + (6 * 12) <em>{17 is the first number after a multiple of 4 (16). As a result, 25 by 17 will end in "25." 25 by 17 is 425.}</em>

425 + (24 * 13) + (6 * 12) <em>{24 by 13 is 312.}</em>

425 + 312 + (6 * 12) <em>{6 by 12 is 72.}</em>

425 + 312 + 72 <em>{From left to right, add 425, 312, and 72 to get 809}</em>

737 + 72

809 km²

The area of this figure is 809 km².
