Answer:

166.67 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of mile for which the cost for both car rental be same is x mile

For first car rental

weekly fees charged = $10

cost of 1 mile = $0.29

cost of x miles = x*cost of 1 mile = $0.29x

total money charged by first car rental = $10 + $0.29x

For other car rental

weekly fees charged = 0

cost of 1 mile = $0.35

cost of x miles = x*cost of 1 mile = $0.35x

total money charged by other car rental = $0.29x

_______________________________________

since we have to find miles for which charges are same

thus

total money charged by first car rental  = total money charged by other car rental

10 + 0.29x = 0.35x --------------------equation required

=> 10 = 0.35x - 0.29x

=> 10 = 0.06x

=> x = 10/0.06 = 166.67

Thus, the number of miles for which both agencies will charge the same is 166.67 miles.

A dealer paid kshs 240,000 to an agent as commission for sale of a car .The commission was 3 percent of the car price how much m
dybincka [34]

Answer:

kshs 6,480,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, kshs 240,000 represent the 3% of the car price, you can use a rule of three to calculate the amount that represents 100%:

240,000 →   3%

     x       →  100%

x=(240,000*100)/3

x=8,000,000

So, the price of the car is kshs 8,000,000 and you can calculate the 16% of this, to find the amount that the dealer had to pay as government V.A.T:

8,000,000*16%=1.280.000

Now, you can subtract the comission and the government VAT from the car price:

8,000,000-240,000-1,280,000=6,480,000

According to this, the answer is that the dealer remained with kshs 6,480,000 from the sale of the car.

Describe the shaded areas.​
melomori [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  the difference of 2 or 3 rectangles

Step-by-step explanation:

In every case, the "shaded" area can be computed by finding the area of a "bounding" rectangle, and subtracting the areas of the rectangular cutouts that give the figure its shape.

(a) The cutout is the white space at upper right. (Insufficient dimensions are given.)

(b) The cutout is the white space at lower left. The bounding rectangle is 8×7, and the cutout is 4×3.

(c) The cutout is the rectangle in the middle. The bounding rectangle is 13×7, and the cutout is 4×1.

(d) The cutouts are the rectangles on either side. They could be considered as a single unit. The bounding rectangle is 20×25; the cutouts have a total width of 16 and a height of 20, so total 16×20.

(e) Similar to (d), the cutouts are the white spaces on either side. The bounding rectangle is 14×12. The cutouts total 12 in width and 3 in height, so total 12×3.

__

You will note in (d) and (e) that the dimensions of the cutouts have something in common with the dimensions of the bounding rectangle. This means the problem can be simplified a little bit by factoring out that common factor. In (e), for example, 14×12 -(12×3) = 12(14 -3) = 12×11

What value is a discontinuity of x squared plus 8 x plus 4, all over x squared minus x minus 6?
True [87]

Answer: x=3\\x=-2


Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have the following expression:

\frac{x^{2}+8x+4}{x^{2}-x-6}

3. The denominatoir cannot be zero, so, you must find its roots:

x^{2}-x-6=0

Factorizing it, you obtain:

(x-3)(x+2)=0\\x=3\\x=-2

 Then:

 \frac{x^{2}+8x+4}{(x-3)(x+2)}

4. Therefore, the values that are discontinuity of  \frac{x^{2}+8x+4}{x^{2}-x-6} are:

x=3\\x=-2
