Billy’s Boat Rentals charges a yearly fee of $105 and $9.50 each time a member wants to rent a boat. Lisa’s Boat Rentals does no
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

For the cost to be the same the a person have to rent billy's and Lisa's 20 times.

Explanation:

Billy's rentals charges a yearly fee of $105 and $9.50 each time a member wants to rent a boat. The total cost can be represented as follows.

where

x =  number of times each member rents a boat

y = total cost

y = 105 + 9.50x

Lisa boat rental does not charge a yearly fee but charges $14.75 every time a member rents a boat.

y = 14.75x

For the cost to be the same

105 + 9.50x = 14.75x

collect like terms

105 = 14.75x - 9.50x

105 = 5.25x

divide both sides by 5.25

x = 105/5.25

x = 20

For the cost to be the same the a person have to rent billy's and Lisa's 20 times.

Which four parts of this excerpt from W. W. Jacobs's "The Monkey's Paw" show that the White family doubts the major's story?
Sav [38]

Answer:

Parts 2, 3, 4 and 5 show the attitudes and comments made by the White family about the major’s story and the alleged powers of the monkey’s paw.  

In part 2, Mrs. White compares the major’s story with the ‘Arabian nights’ so as to show that, for her, it was nothing more than a tale. In addition, she makes a scornful comment about the seriousness of the situation.

In part 3, the overall veracity of the major is questioned, indicating the lack of trust in his words.

In part 4, a sarcastic comment about the odds of the wishes coming true is made by Herbert, which indicates his skepticism about the paw’s powers.

In part 5, Mr. White’s doubtfulness is literally expressed in the text.

The remaining part (part 1) is the only one that shows the words of the major himself. Thus, it is self-evident that this is the only part that will not express doubts about his story.
