Answer:

113 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations that define the cost c for each company based on the number of miles, m driven

Ace: c = 15 + 0.23m

Acme : c = 24 + 0.15m

we want to find m when c is the same

hence we can equate both equations

15 + 0.23m  = 24 + 0.15m

0.23m - 0.15m = 24 - 15

0.08m = 9

m = 9/0.08

m = 112.5 ( ~=113 miles)

Alona [7]

Answer:

X is a discrete random variable.

X can take values from 0 to 12:

X\in[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) X = the number of unbroken eggs in a randomly chosen standard egg carton

X is a discrete random variable.

The minimum amount of eggs broken is 0 and the maximum amount of eggs broken is 12 (assuming a dozen egg carton).

Then, X can take values from 0 to 12:

X\in[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12]

About the probability ditribution nothing can be said, because there is no information about it (it can be a binomial, uniform or non-standard distribution).

HELP PLEASE..........
serg [7]

Answer:

19.47

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the law of sines.

sin(90)/6 = sin(x)/2

Multiply both sides by 2

2 * sin(90)/6 = sin(x)

Use a calculator

0.33333 = sin(x)

sin^-1 0.3333 = 19.47

Factorise and solve : x^3-x^2-4x+4
Alika [10]

(x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2)

note that the sum of the coefficients 1 - 1 - 4 + 4 = 0

thus x = 1 is a root and (x - 1 ) is a factor

dividing x³ - x² - 4x + 4 by (x - 1)

x³ - x² - 4x + 4 = (x - 1)(x² - 4 ) (note (x² - 4 ) is a difference of squares )

x³ - x² - 4x + 4 = (x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2)

(x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2 ) =0

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

solutions are x = 1 or x = ± 2
