The area of the rectangular is expressed in the formula A = l*w where l is the length and w is the width. from the first satement, l = 2  + w; then A = (2+w)*w = 2w + w^2. If A is equal to 168, then w should be equal to 12 feet and l is equal to 14 feet. Hence the width due to the border limits is 12- 2*2 equal to 8 feet

Andrea calls two truck rental companies to compare costs. Action trucks charges $80 for the day plus $0.22 per kilometer and tru
Amanda [17]

Answer:it will take 200 kilometers for the costs to be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of kilometers that Andrea would have to drive for the total cost of renting from both companies to be the same.

Action trucks charges $80 for the day plus $0.22 per kilometer. It means that the total cost of x miles would be

80 + 0.22x - - - - - - - - - 1

Truck experts charges $100 for the day plus $0.12 per kilometer. It means that the total cost of x miles would be

100 + 0.12x - - - - - - - - - 2

Therefore, for the cost of renting from both companies to be the same,

80 + 0.22x = 100 + 0.12x

0.22x - 0.12x = 100 - 80

0.1x = 20

x = 20/0.1 = 200

If a triangle has 23mm,20mm,13mm angles 62°,72°,46° what type of triangle is it
frutty [35]
I would draw the triangle then it would be easier to answer. It is not an equilateral because it is not equal on all sides. Perhaps scalene because all the sides are not the same.
