Answer:
15 rentals
Step-by-step explanation:
You can (and may be expected to) set up an equation that equates the total cost at one store to the total cost at the other store. When you work through the solution of this equation, you find that the "break even" number of rentals is the ratio of the difference in fixed cost (setup fee) to the difference in per-use cost (rental charge).
Here, that ratio is ...
(15.00 -7.50)/(2.25 -1.75) = 7.50/0.50 = 15
15 rentals will make the total costs the same.
Answer:
37 dimes and 10 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
let d = # dimes
let n = # nickels
we can set up a system of equations:
n + d = 47
.05n + .10d = 4.2
if we solve the first equation for 'n' we get:
n = 47-d
now we can substitute this in for 'n' in the second equation:
.05(47-d) + .10d = 4.2
2.35 - .05d + .10d = 4.2
2.35 + .05d = 4.2
subtract 2.35 from each side to get:
.05d = 1.85
d = 1.85÷.05
d = 37
if d+n = 47 and d=37 then n = 10
Check:
.05(10) + .1(37) should equal 4.2
.50 + 3.7 = 4.2 [It Checks Out]
Answer:
- 4
Step-by-step explanation:
(2*(Rationalize(9.7)-Rationalize(4.8x)))==Rationalize(61.2)-Rationalize(3.4)
Rationalize(18.4)-Rationalize(2.8x)
==Rationalize(57.8)
-Rationalize(2.8x)==Rationalize(57.8)-Rationalize(18.4)
x= 38.4÷-2.8
:x= -4
Answer:
F= 0.44642857d+1
Step-by-step explanation:
x is your starting running time. 1/10 of a minute is 6 seconds, so you can do x - 6(6). 6 times 6 = 36, so your answer is x - 36 seconds. 36 seconds.
