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

Gwar [14]
The volumes of the clothing bin and the closet can be calculated by multiplying the dimensions. 
                          V (clothing bin) = 20 in x 18 in x 14 in
                                                      = 5040 in³
   
                          V (closet) = 60 in x 36 in x 72 in
                                             = 155520 in³

To determine the number of clothing bins that can fit the closet, divide the volume of the closet by the volume of the clothing bin. Doing so will give us an answer of 30.85 or approximately 30 clothing bin can fit in the closet.

Transform into y=mx + b form: - 2x + 6y = - 24
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

y= 1/3 x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+6y=-24 Write what you are given

+2x        +2x Add 2x to each side to get y by itself

------------------

     +6y=-24+2x

       /6    /6 Divide by six on both sides to get y by itself

-----------------

         y=-4+ 1/3 x

         y= 1/3 x-4 Rearrange to get into y=mx+b form

A satellite dish is shaped like a paraboloid of revolution. The signals that emanate from a satellite strike the surface of the
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

c = 9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation, one is to find the 'c' : that is, the distance between the vertex and the focus.

Given that, the equation for a vertical parabola:

y = (1/4c)(x-h)^2 + k

Supposing we place our parabola at the center, our equation becomes:

y = (1/4c)x^2

.

The problem gives us a point on the parabola: (12,4)

Then insert it in and solve for 'c':

y = (1/4c)x^2

4 = (1/4c)12^2

4 = (1/4c)144

4 = (1/c)36

4c = 36

c = 36/4

c = 9 feet
