Answer:

For 20 miles the cost of both companies be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let x is the miles travel, Laguna's Truck Rentals charges $20 plus $2 per mile. Then the cost for the Laguna's truck is:

C_1 = 2x +20

Now it is given that Salvatori's Truck Rentals charges $3 per mile.

As we know x is the miles travel, and Salvatori's Truck Rentals charges $3 per mile. Thus the total cost for Salvatori's Truck is:

C_2=3x

We need to find the number of miles for which the total cost for both companies be the same.

For same cost C_1=C_2 thus,

2x +20=3x

Subtract 2x from both sides.

2x-2x +20=3x-2x

20=x

Hence, for 20 miles the cost of both companies be the same.

What is the fourth term of the expansion of the binomial (2x+5)^5?
Crank

Answer:

B) 5000x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponent of x starts at 5 in the first term and decreases by 1 as the term numbers increase by 1. Hence, the 4th term will have 2 as the exponent of x. (It will have 5-2=3 as the exponent of 5.)

Pascal's triangle tells you the coefficients of the 6 terms in the expansion will be 1, 5, 10, 10, 5, 1, so the 4th term has a coefficient of 10.

The 4th term will be ...

10(2x)^2(5)^3 = 10·4·125·x^2 = 5000x^2

Just remember that vertical angles are congruent and have same degree. Straight lines add up to 180 degrees.

G = 115 degrees (vertical angle)
K = 131 degrees (vertical angle)
h = 180-115 = 65 degrees
m = 180 - 131 = 49 degrees

Raleigh went to a gaming arcade for his birthday. His parents gave him $55 to spend. He purchased $14.25 in food and drinks, and
xenn [34]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total amount to spend = $55

Amount of food and drinks purchased = $14.25

Amount put on gaming card = $(55 - 14.25) = $40.75

Cost per game = $1.25

Number of games (g) he can play

Number of games g:

Amount put on gaming card / cost per game

= $40.75 / $1.25

= 32.6 games

g ≤ 32

There are 4 pizzas which each have 12 slices. These pizzas will be divided between 15 people. How many slices does each person g
jasenka [17]
<h2><u>Anѕwєr :</u></h2>

48/15 or 3 whole 3/15

<h2><u>Explαnαtion :</u></h2>

There are 4 pizzas and each have 12 slices. So,

→ Number of slices each pizza have = 12 slices

→ Number of slices 12 pizzas have = (12 × 4) slices

→ Number of slices 12 pizzas have = 48 slices

Now, we have to find the number of slices each person get if they are split evenly.

→ Number of people = 15

Let the the number of slices each person get if they are split evenly be x. So,

→ Total number of slices = Number of people × Number of slices each gets

→ 48 = 15x

→ <u>48/15 or 3 whole 3/15 = Number of slices each gets</u>

Therefore, the number of slices each person get if they are split evenly is 48/15.
