Answer:

when the distance driven per day is 100 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by writing an equation for the daily charge of each company

Let's call p(x) what the primo car rental charges per mile "x", and let's call u(x) what ultimo rental charges;

p(x) = 24 + 0.4 x

u(x) = 38 + 0.9 x

when would u(x) be twice the p(x) charge?

u(x) = 2 p(x)

38 + 0.9 x = 48 + 0.8 x

0.9 x - 0.8 x = 48 - 38

0.1 x = 10

x = 100

so, such happens when the distance driven per day is 100 miles

Jamal is comparing his transportation options for an upcoming trip. He’s considering a rental car and a taxi service. Based on h
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The range of rental car rates that would be cheaper for Jamal than the taxi service is given by,

A ={x| 0 ≤ x < 26}  [where x is in dollar]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the car rental rate be  $ x per day .

Jamal's trip will last for 4 day.

He expects to pay $ 24 for gas  (if he rents the car)

He expects a  taxi service would cost about $ 128

So, for the rental car option to be cheaper than the taxi option, the following inequality must follow,

128 > 24 + 4x

⇒ 4x < 104

⇒ x < 26

So, the range of rental car rates that would be cheaper for Jamal than the taxi service is given by,

A ={x| 0 ≤ x < 26} [where x is in dollar]

A boy has 40 red and blue pencils in his pencil case. If the ratio of red to blue pencils is 0.15 to 0.35, how many blue pencils
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The boy has 28 blue pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total pencils = 40

The ratio of red to blue= 0.15:0.35

We have to find the number of blue pencils

For that we need the sum of ratio = 0.15+0.35 = 0.5

So, the number of blue pencils = (ratio of blue/sum of ratio) * total pencils

=0.35/0.5 * 40

=0.7*40

=28 pencils

Therefore, the boy has 28 blue pencils ..
