Answer:

800 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of miles be represented by x

Company A for ​$110 a day plus ​$0.80 per mile.

$110 + $0.80 × x

110 + 0.80x

Company B charges ​$30 a day plus ​$0.90 per mile to rent the same truck.

$30 + $0.90 × x

30 + 0.90x

110 + 0.80x = 30 + 0.90x

110 - 30 = 0.90x - 0.80x

80 = 0.1x

x = 80/0.1

x = 800 miles

800 miles driven per day makes the rental cost for Company A a better deal than Company​ B's

PLEASE GIVE AN EXPLANATION WITH YOUR ANSWER! The table below shows the change in the value of shares over the last three years.

First, lets convert them into multipliers:

The multiplier for a:

                             25% increase = 1.25

                             40% decrease = 0.6

                             40% increase  = 1.4

Now to work out the overall percentage change, we just times all of the multipliers together, and convert it back to a percentage:

1.25 x 0.6 x 1.4 = 1.05    

So the overall multiplier is 1.05

And a multiplier of 1.05 = a <u>5% increase</u>.

That means that the percentage change is + 5%

Answer:

The percentage change in shares from the start of 2013 to the end of 2015 is:

+ 5%

A cylinder and a cone have the same base and height. The cylinder can hold about 4,712 mc015-1.jpg of sand. Jared says that the
exis [7]
The correct answer is C. So, lets go first to the equations that determine the volume of these solids. For the cylinder, that is simple; pi*r*r*h where r is the radius, h is the height and pi is the constant 3.14. For the cone, it is not easy to derive but one gets that the formula is:\frac{ \pi*r^2*h}{3}.

We notice thus that V_{cyl}=\pi*r^2*h=3V_{cone}. That holds irrespective of their radius or height; we only need to know that the heights and radii of the two objects are the same. Now, we have thus that:
\frac{V_{Cyl}}{V_{Cone} } =1/3.

We can check if this holds for Jared's statement; 1178/4712=0.25=1/4. So, it does not hold and thus Jared's statement is incorrect.

Find the value of b in the graph of y=3x+b if it is known that the graph goes through the point: N(0,5)
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

I believe b is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you place the points in the values, you get 5=3(0)+b. When you simplify it, you get 5=b. I really hope this is correct, I apologize if it isn't! I hope this helps! :)
