A. If a camera is rented for 1 or 2 days, it would be logical to rent it from Murphy's.

B. If a camera is needed for more than 3 days, it would make sense to rent it from Allied rental.

C. Yes, if a camera is rented for 3 days both rentals charge the same money.

C. If you were need a camera for 3 days, you would have to pay $135 for both stores.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1; Murphy's camera costs $30 to rent and an additional $35 for each day of rental. So the equations are

y = $30 + (x × $35), where y is total cost and x is the number of days rented.

So for x = 1, y = $30 + (1 × $35) = $30 + $35 = $65

So for x = 2, y = $30 + (2 × $35) = $30 + $70 = $100

So for x = 3, y = $30 + (3 × $35) = $30 + $105 = $135

So for x = 4, y = $30 + (4 × $35) = $30 + $140 = $170

So for x = 5, y = $30 + (5 × $35) = $30 + $175 = $ 205.

Step 2; Allied rental costs $45 to rent and a $30 for each day of rental. So the equations are as follows

y = $45 + (x × $30), where y is total cost and x is the days rented

So for x = 1, $45 + (1 × $30) = $45 + $30 = $75

So for x = 2, $45 + (2 × $30) = $45 + $60 = $105

So for x = 3, $45 + (3 × $30) = $45 + $90 = $135

So for x = 4, $45 + (4 × $30) = $45 + $120 = $165

So for x = 5, $45 + (5 × $30) = $45 + $150 = $195

Step 3; Comparing both prices over 5 days. Murphy's is cheaper for until 2 days. On day 3 both the rentals cost the same but after day 4, allied rentals is the better option.

If you are looking for volume you want v by itself so your formula would look like this : d*m=v

Simplify the expression 8^2 +9 (12/3x2)- 7
Zarrin [17]
1)12 ÷ 3 = 4. 
2) 4×2= 8.
3) 9× 8= 72.
4) 8² = 64
5) 64+ 72 = 136
6) 136 - 7 = 129.

If you just want to simplify the expression you get: 8² + 9(8) - 7
But when you simplify that you get the answer below.

Vinvika [58]
Sn = a(r^n - 1)/(r - 1)
S4 = 228(4.8^4 - 1)/(4.8 - 1) = 228(530.8416 - 1)/3.8 = 228(529.8416)/3.8 = 120,803.8848 / 3.8 = 31,790.496
