60 + 0.50(x - 40) < = 270
60 + 0.50x - 20 < = 270
40 + 0.50x < = 270
0.50x < = 270 - 40
0.50x < = 230
x < = 230/0.50
x < = 460 miles <==

mario62 [17]

Answer:

4, 4√3

Step-by-step explanation:

In a 30-60-90 triangle:

The leg opposite of the 30-degree angle is 1/2 of the hypotenuse: 8/2 = 4

The longer leg is √3 times the shorter leg: 4*√3 = 4√3

Check work: 4^2+(4√3)^2 = 8^2 --> 16+48 = 64 --> 64 = 64

Two taxi companies in a city only charge by mileage and do not charge an initial fee. If Taxi 1 charges $3.00 per miles and Taxi
Bumek [7]

Answer:

A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $36.00, and in Taxi 2 it costs $34.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Charges of taxi 1 = $3.00 per mile

Charges of taxi 2 = $1.77 per kilometer

1 mile = 1.61 kilometers

To find:

Cost of a 12 miles ride for taxi 1 and taxi 2.

Solution:

Let us first convert the charges of each taxi to per mile.

Taxi 1 charges are already given in per mile.

Charges for 1 mile = $3

Charges for 12 miles = 3 \times 12 = <em>$36</em>

Taxi 2 charges = 1.77 \times 1.61 = $2.85 per mile

Charges for 12 miles = 2.85 \times 12 = <em>$34.20</em>

<em></em>

Therefore, the answer is:

<em>A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $36.00, and in Taxi 2 it costs $34.20.</em>

An angle measures 37*. What is the measure of its supplement?
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

143°

Step-by-step explanation:

supplementary angles are angles that combine to form a straight line (and we know that a straight line = 180 degrees)

you can think of an angle as needing another angle to "supplement" it into being a full line.

So, we know that one angle = 37°

And that: one angle + supplementary angle = 180 degrees

                 37° + x  = 180°

                - 37           -37

                     x    = 143

So, the measure of this angle's supplement is 143°

hope this helps!!
