Truck A costs $600 more that Truck B. However, it burns 0.06 gallon/mile compared to 0.07 gallon/mile for truck B. Both trucks h

ave a useful life of 10 years. Salvage value of Truck B is $200 less than Truck A’s. The cost of fuel is $2.25/gallon. If the value of $ remains the same in 10 years, what is the number of miles driven per year (X) beyond which Truck A is a better option than Truck B?

Answer:

  1,778

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C and S represent the cost and salvage value of Truck B, respectively. Let X represent the number of miles per year that answers the question.

Truck A's cost for 10 years is ...

  A = C+600 +(0.06)(2.25)(10X) -(S+200)

Truck B's cost for 10 years is ...

  B = C +(0.07)(2.25)(10X) -S

We want to find X such that Truck A's cost is lower, so ...

  C -S +1.35X +400 < C -S +1.575X

  400 < 0.225X

  1777 7/9 < X

1778 miles driven per year (or more) makes Truck A a better option.

A bicycle shop sells only bicycles and tricycles. Altogther there are 23 seats and 50 wheels. How many bicycles and tricycles ar
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The number of bicycles is 19.

and the number of tricycles is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that the number of seats in bicycles as well as in tricycles is 1.

The number of wheels in bicycles is 2

and the number of wheels in tricycles is 3.

Let the number of bicycles be x.

and the number of tricycles be y.

Thus using the given information we can make equation as,

x + y = 23

and, 2x + 3y = 50

Solving these two equations:

We get, x = 19 and y = 4

Thus the number of bicycles is 19.

and the number of tricycles is 4.

Heart beats 2,320 times during 20 minutes of rowing. While resting the heart is beating 16 times in 15 seconds. What is the diff
Mrac [35]

Answer: 0.87 times per second  (Or 52.2 times per minute)

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to make the conversion from minutes to seconds.

Remember that 1 minute has 60 seconds. Then 20 minutes to seconds is:

(20minutes)(\frac{60seconds}{1minute})=1,200seconds

Find the number of times the heart beats in 1 second when it is rowing:

x_1=\frac{(2,320times)}{1,200seconds}=1.93\ times\ per\ second

Find the number of times the heart beats in 1 second when it is resting:

x_2=\frac{(16times)}{15seconds}=1.06\ times\ per\ second

Then the difference is:

difference=(1.93-1.06)\ times\ per\ second\\difference=0.87\ times\ per\ second

(Or 52.2 times per minute)
