Answer:

The cost of posting one letter = £1.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount Amina has = £20

Amina's change = £14.96

Total cost spent on posting the letters = £20 - £14.96 = £5.04

And we're told that she posts 3 letters in total, with the cost of posting each letter the same.

Cost of posting 3 letters = £5.04

Cost of posting only 1 letter = (£5.04/3) = £1.68

Hence, the cost of posting a letter = £1.68

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

c = £1.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- Amina posts 3 letters

- Total amount paid, P = £ 20

- Change received, R = £14.96

Find:-

what is the cost of posting one letter?

Solution:-

- The cost of 3 letters (C) can be determined from the amount paid and change received as follows:

                             C = P - R

                             C = 20 - 14.96

                             C = £5.04

- The cost of single unit (c), assuming all units sold are identical then we have:

                             c = C / total units purchased

                             c = £5.04 / 3

                             c = £1.68

The table shows the relationship between the cost of renting a car from the Wrecko Car Rental Company and the number of days for
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The cost of renting the car for 20 days is $481

Step-by-step explanation:

The table of values can be formed as follows;

Day,   Cost

1,         $44

2,        $67

3,        $90

4,        $113

7,        $182

10,      $251

From the given values and the scatter plot, there is a straight line relationship between the cost and the number of days of rental of a car.

The line of best fit is therefore a straight line and from the constant increase in cost ($23) for each extra day of rental, it is possible to find the slope, m, of the data as follows;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

(x₁, y,) and (x₂, y₂) can be taken as (1, $44) and (3, $90) respectively to give;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{90-44}{3-1} = \dfrac{46}{2} = 23 \ as \ stated \ above

The equation in slope and intercept form is therefore, y  - 44 = 23×(x - 1), which gives;

y - 44 = 23·x - 23

y = 23·x - 23 + 44 = 23·x + 21

The cost of renting the car for 20 days is then;

10×23 + 21 = $481

The cost of renting the car for 20 days = $481.
