Add 6 to both sides and you'll have x/4=1. then you multiply both sides by 4 so the answer is x=4

the rectangular post shown at the right measures 2w-30 by w. the poster has an area of 5400 cm^2. what is The value of w ?

borishaifa [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

w(2w - 30) = 5400

2w²- 30w = 5400

2w² - 30w - 5400 = 0

(w - 60 ) ( w + 45 ) = 0

w= 60 w= - 45

only take the positive value

therefore w = 60

A truck can be rented from Company A for $70 a day plus $0.20 per mile. Company B charges $20 a day plus $0.40 per mile to r

Otrada [13]

Answer:

For Company A to have a better deal, the truck must be driven more than 250 miles per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Rent per day of company A = $70

Per mile charges = $0.20

Let,

x be the number of miles.

A(x) = 0.20x + 70

Rent per day of company B = $20

Per mile charges = $0.40

B(x) = 0.40x + 20

For make Company A better deal,

A(x) > B(x)

0.20x+70 > 0.40+20

0.20x-0.40x>20-70

-0.20x>-50

Dividing both sides by -0.20

$\frac{-0.20x}{-0.20}>\frac{-50}{-0.20}\\x>250$

Hence,

For Company A to have a better deal, the truck must be driven more than 250 miles per day.

Victor was having a hard time deciding which new vehicle he should buy. He decided to make the final decision based on the gas e

Amanda [17]

Answer:

Victor should buy Legend because it has a better unit rate

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for complete question.

To determine which car has more gas efficiency, we have to calculate the slope of each car.

Vehicle 1: Legend

Take any two corresponding points from the table

$(x_1,y_1) = (4,72)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (12,216)$

The slope is then calculated using;

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{216 - 72}{12 - 4}$

$m = \frac{144}{8}$

$m = 18$

This implies that this vehicle (legend) travels 18 miles per gallon of gas

Vehicle 2: Supreme

Take any two corresponding points from the graph

$(x_1,y_1) = (0,0)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (15,250)$

The slope is then calculated using;

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{250 - 0}{15 - 0}$

$m = \frac{250}{15}$

$m = 16.7$

This implies that this vehicle (supreme) travels 16.7 miles per gallon of gas

Base on the calculations above, Victor should buy Legend because it has a better unit rate
