6. Solve 2.6x + 2 > -12.5 and graph the solution on a number line.

Answer:

x>−5.576923

Step-by-step explanation:

2.6x+2>−12.5

Step 1: Subtract 2 from both sides.

2.6x+2−2>−12.5−2

2.6x>−14.5

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.6.

2.6x

−14.5

Car A gets 25 miles per gallon and costs $13,000. Car B is a hybrid that gets 45 miles per gallon, but costs $25,000. Assume you

Olenka [21]

The initial cost of car B is 25,000.

The cost of fuel consumed in n years by car B is
$=n\times \frac{15000\:miles}{year}\times \frac{1\:gallon}{45\:miles}\times \frac{4\:dollars}{gallon}$

Equate the initial cost to the cost of fuel
$25000=n\times \frac{15000\:miles}{year}\times \frac{1\:gallon}{45\:miles}\times \frac{4\:dollars}{gallon}$

$25000=\frac{4000n}{3}$

$n=\frac{25000\left(3\right)}{4000}$

$n=18.75$

It will take 18.75 years for Car B's better fuel economy to outweigh its higher initial cost.
