Answer:
1620
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of even integers between 10 and 80 inclusive is 36 (5 for each interval of 10 [e.g., 10-19 has 5, 20-29 has 5] and one extra for 80).
Since the numbers are consecutive even numbers, we can use the fact that the sum of the numbers is equal to the average of the numbers, times the number of numbers.
The average of the numbers is 45, since
. We can use only the two outer numbers to determine the average since the numbers are all evenly spaced as they are consecutive even numbers.
, so the sum is 1620.
He spent 1.59 + 2.69 which is equal to $4.28, which is your answer.
How is anyone supposed to answer this?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For what mileages will company A (which has a flat rate of $111) be less than the cost for company B
Company A < Company B
111 < 75 + 0.80m
solving
111 - 75 < 75 - 75 + 0.80m
36 < 0.80m
36/0.80 < 0.80m/0.80
as we are dividing by a positive number, we don't have to change the direction of the < sign.
45 < m
or m > 45
so if Ali intends to drive more than 45 miles, Company A's vehicle will be less expensive to rent
