Answer:

y = 0.15x+77 is the equation linear connecting total cost y and miles driven x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the leasing company charged a flat rental fee for the week, plus a charge for each mile driven.

Let flat rental fee be c and cost per mile driven = m and miles driven = x

Total cost =y

Then y = mx+C is the linear equation.

to find m and c, we use the fact that y =110.30 when x = 222

i.e. 110.30 = c+222x

and similarly 99.05 = c+147x

Subtract to eliminate c

11.25 = 75 x

0.15 =x

Substitute in I equation

110.30 = c+222(0.15)

c = 77

y = 0.15x+77 is the equation linear connecting total cost y and miles driven x

If p(x)= x^2-1 and q(x)=5(x-1), which expression is equivalent to (p-q)(x)?​
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

x² - 5x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

note that (p - q)(x) = p(x) - q(x), thus

p(x) - q(x)

= x² - 1 - 5(x - 1) ← distribute parenthesis by - 5

= x² - 1 - 5x + 5 ← collect like terms

= x² - 5x + 4
