A truck can be rented from Company A for ​$110 a day plus ​$0.80 per mile. Company B charges ​$30 a day plus ​$0.90 per mile to

rent the same truck. How many miles must be driven in a day to make the rental cost for Company A a better deal than Company​ B's?

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

Answer:

z=\frac{15\sqrt{3}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

In leftmost triangle:

opposite side =y

adjacent=a

now, we can use trig formula

tan(60)=\frac{y}{a}

now, we can solve for y

y=atan(60)

In rightmost triangle:

adjacent=b

opposite=y

a+b=15

b=15-a

now, we can use trig formula

tan(30)=\frac{y}{15-a}

now, we can solve for y

y=(15-a)tan(30)

now, we can set them equal

and then we can solve for a

atan(60)=(15-a)tan(30)

\sqrt{3}a\cdot \:3=\frac{\sqrt{3}\left(15-a\right)}{3}\cdot \:3

4\sqrt{3}a=15\sqrt{3}

a=\frac{15}{4}

now, we can find b

b=15-\frac{15}{4}

b=\frac{45}{4}

now, we can use trig formula

cos(30)=\frac{b}{z}

now, we can find z

z=\frac{\frac{45}{4}}{cos(30)}

we can simplify it

and we get

z=\frac{15\sqrt{3}}{2}

The Walnut Cove Ruritan Club sells hot dogs and drinks from a concession stand at the annual July 4 parade. Carl bought 6 hot do
pickupchik [31]

Based on the two different purchases, you can write equations for the price of a hotdog (h) and that of a drink (d). These equations can be solved by your favorite method to find the individual prices.

... 6h +4d = 17.00 . . . . . . Carl's purchase

... 3h +4d = 12.50 . . . . . . Susan's purchase

We can see that the difference in purchase cost (of $4.50) is due entirely to the difference in the number of hotdogs (3). Thus, the price of a hotdog must be

... $4.50/3 = $1.50

The 4 drinks are then ($12.50 -4.50) = $8, so must be $2 each. You don't need to figure the cost of a drink to determine that the appropriate answer choice is ...

... D. $1.50 for a hot dog; $2.00 for a drink.
