Answer:
231 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Tom rented a truck with a base fee of 19.95. You will subtract this from the total since you just want to get the mileage.
Tom is getting charged .85 cents per mile driven.
Tom payed 216.30 subtotal minus the 19.95 base fee since we are trying to only see how many miles he drove.
(216.30-19.95=196.35) This will be total for each mile. All we need to do is divide to get the total of miles
(196.35÷.85= 231)
231 is the number of miles Tom drove.
Answer:
(-3,-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
because it as the information triangle y
Standard form Ax + By = C
so
<span>(y - y1) = m(x - x1)
</span>given (5, -7) and m = -1/5
so
y + 7 = -1/5(x - 5)
-5y - 35 = x - 5
x + 5y = -30
answer
d. x + 5y = -30
First thing you should do is reduce coefficients.
1st equation has all multiples of '2'. Divide by 2
---> x +3y = -6
2nd equation has multiples of 5. Divide by 5.
---> x - y = 2
Now elimination part is easier.
Eliminate 'x' variable by subtracting 2nd equation from 1st.
x + 3y = -6
-(x - y = 2)
----------------------
4y = -8
Solve for 'y'
4y = -8
y = (-8)/4 = -2
Substitute value for 'y' back into 2nd equation:
x - (-2) = 2
x + 2 = 2
x = 0
Solution to system is:
x=0, y =-2
