Answer:

440 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rental company charges for rent a truck = $75 per day

and the charges per mile = 20 cents

100 cents = 1 dollar

20 cents =  \frac{20}{100}

               = $0.20

Michael rents a truck for 2 days.

Let Michael drove the truck in 2 days = x miles

and his bill came to $238.

the equation will be : (75 × 2) + 0.20x = 238

150 + 0.20x = 238

0.20x = 238 - 150

0.20x = 88

x =  \frac{88}{0.20}

x = 440

Michael drove the truck 440 miles in 2 days.

75(2)+.20x=238
You then solve for x by multiplying 75 by 2 to get 150. Then subtract 150 from both sides of the equation, so this is what you get .20x=88. Finally divide by .20 on both sides to get x= 440

Jeanette obtained 32% for her statistics test, which was out of a total of 300 marks. How much should she score in the computer
Andre45 [30]

Using weighted average, it is found that she should score 67% on the computer science test.

  • The weighted average is given by <u>each proportion multiplied by it's score</u>.

In this problem, the proportions and scores are given by:

  • Proportion of 32% = 0.32 for a score of 300.
  • Proportion of x for a score of 200.
  • Proportion of 46% = 0.46 for a score of 300 + 200 = 500.

Then

0.32(300) + 200x = 0.46(500)

200x = 0.46(500) - 0.32(300)

200x = 134

x = \frac{134}{200}

x = 0.67

She should score 67% on the computer science test.

How do I solve this equation
Ugo [173]

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

the question is just asking you to replace the x and y with the corresponding numbers.

x = 4

y = -3

Since x is 4 squared it would be 16.

-4 times -3 equals positive 12.

That would make the equation

(16 + 12) divided by 2

16 + 12 = 28 divide that by 2 and you’ll get 14.

PLEASE HELP
Savatey [412]
Correct Answer: Option A

The next step in simplification will be to convert the squared term so that it no longer contains a square.

So, we are to simplify the term cos^{2}(2x)

Using the half-angle identity we can write:

cos^{2}(2x)= \frac{1+cos(4x)}{2}

Using this value, the equation becomes:

sin^{4}x=1-2cos(2x)+ \frac{ \frac{1+cos(4x)}{2} }{4}

Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
