Price of 12 pounds of trail mix = 12 x $4.20
= $50.40
Let the number of pounds of skittles and trail mix be x,
number of pounds of skittles = 12 - x
price of pounds of skittles = $16.70(12 - x)
= $200.40 - 16.7x
total amount = 10.93x
200.40 - 16.7x + 50.40 = 10.93x
250.80 = 27.63x
x = 10 (nearest whole number)
the minimum number of pounds of skittles is 10.

Sergio and Lizeth have a very tight vacation budget. They plan to rent a car from a company that charges $75 a week plus $0.25 a
nordsb [41]

Answer: 500 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sergio and Lizeth have planned to rent a car from a company that charges $75 a week plus $0.25 a mile.

i.e. Fixed charge= $75

Rate per mile = $0.25

Let x denotes the number of miles.

Then, Total charges = Fixed charge+ Rate per mile x No. of miles traveled

=  $75+ $0.25x

To keep budget within $200, we have following equation.

75+0.25x=200\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.25=200-75\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.25=125\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{125}{0.25}=\dfrac{12500}{25}=500

Hence, they can travel 500 miles and still keep within their $200 budget.

What is the x-intercepts
maks197457 [2]
For the y intercept let x = 0
and you'll get -10

for the x intercepts you must solve for x:

f(x)=-2x^2+12x-10\\
f(x)=x^2-6x+5\\
f(x)=(x-5)(x-1)
\\x=5\\x=1
