D = the number of days the person can rent the car

Cost per day = $26 
Cost per mile = $0.30
Miles per day = 60

Formula(s):
(cost of the rent) = (cost per day) * (number of days) + (cost per mile) * (number of miles)
(number of miles) = (miles per day) * (number of days)

350 = 26 * d + 0.30 * 60 * d

350 = 26d + 18d

350 = d(26 + 18)

44d = 350

\frac{44d}{44} =  \frac{350}{44}

d = 7.959

The person could rent the car for 8 days

26 * 8 + 0.30 * 60 * 8

208 + 144 = 352

The person would spend $352 to rent the car.

If u have to drive the car 60 miles per day, at 0.30 per mile, then u r spending 
(60 x 0.30) = 18 per day on just driving.

plus the 26 per day for the rental

totals : 18 + 26 = 44 per day

44d = 350
d = 350/44
d = 7.95 rounds to 8 days

answer is 8 days

Find the shortest side of a triangle whose perimeter is 64 if the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3 and the third side is 20 less
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The shortest side of the triangle is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides the triangle be x, y and z.

From the question, the perimeter of the rectangle is 64, that is

x + y + z = 64 ...... (1)

Also, the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3, that is x:y = 4:3, then we can write that x/y = 4/3 ⇒ 3x = 4y ...... (2)

The third side, z, is 20 less than the sum of the other two, that is

z + 20 = x + y ...... (3)

Substitute equation (3) into (1)

Then,

z + 20 + z = 64

2z +20 = 64

2z = 64 - 20

2z = 44

z = 44/2 k

z = 22

From equation (3)

z + 20 = x + y

Then, k

22 + 20 = x +y

42 = x + y

x = 42 - y ...... (4)

Substitute this into equation 2

3x = 4y

3(42-y) = 4y

126 - 3y = 4y

4y + 3y = 126

7y = 126

y = 126/7

y = 18

Substitute this into equation (4)

x = 42 - y

x = 42 - 18

x = 24

∴ x = 24, y = 18 and z = 22

Hence, the shortest side of the triangle is 18.

Solve for x<br> 9 (x +2) &lt; 3(3-5)
Julli [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

9x+18 < 9-15

1)9-15= -6

9x+18 < -6

9x+18= -5

9x= (-5) - 18

9x= -23

x= 23/9=2 5/9

X=2,55556
