Questions (contd)
(a) For what amount of driving do the two plans cost the same?
(b) What is the cost when the two plans cost the same?
Answer:
(a) 100 miles
(b) $65
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Plan 1:

per mile
Plan 2:

per mile
Solving (a): Number of miles when both plans are equal
Represent the distance with x and the cost with y
So:
Plan 1:

Plan 2:

To solve (a), we equate both plans together; i.e.


Collect Like Terms


Solve for x


Hence, 100 mile would cost both plans the same
Solving (b): Cost when both plans are the same:
In this case, we simply substitute 100 for x in any of the y equation.




<em>Hence, the amount is $65</em>
Answer: 8x³ + 12x² - 16x - 16
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
(4x² - 2x - 4)(2x + 4)
= (2x + 4)(4x² - 2x - 4)
= 2x(4x² - 2x - 4) + 4(4x² - 2x - 4)
= 8x³ - 4x² - 8x + 16x² - 8x - 16
= 8x³ + (-4x² + 16x²) + (-8x - 8x) - 16
= 8x³ + 12x² - 16x - 16
Answer:5
Explanation:Pythagorean Theorem
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
7 (x-8)=2x-31
Distribute the 7 to the x and -8 (basically multiple 7 with the x and -8)
7x-56=2x -31
Drag the 2x over to the other subtracting it from 7x.
7x-2x-56=-31
5x-56=-31
Drag the 56 to the other side and add it to -31
5x= -31+56 (or 56-31)
5x= 25
Divide 5x from 25 to get your X
x=25/5
x=5
Hope this helps!!
