Another cleaner and less expensive forms of energy (not fossil fuel) are not used on a larger scale because of many reasons. Society is accustomed to burning fossil fuels. To change to another better form of energy would be a huge shift in the way factories, car and our electricity are powered. Also, many fossil fuel companies do not want to be out of business so they attempt to bribe politicians and other public figures to spread false information that climate change is fake so the can continue to earn money disregarding the horrible effects it will have on the planet.

Damm [24]

Answer: 137.17 miles

Step-by-step explanation: To know the driven miles, we will have to find the extra money paid divided by the unitary price of each driven mile.

Extra money=$29.46-$25=$4.46

Miles= $\frac{4.46}{0.12}$ =31.17 miles

However, this price per mile is only charged after 100 miles, therefore we will have to sum the extra miles driven and the 100 miles for the basis

Total=100 miles+31.17 miles=137.17

Answer:

25.3

1_ draw a triangle

the shortest side is a which will be 8(bunnies)

diagonal will be c ( what you need to find )

the last side will be b.

so the equation is a2+b2=c2 ( 2=squared)

that means..... 8x8+24x24=c

8x8=64

24x24=576

then add

576+64=640

the find square root

√640=25.2982212813

simplify to 25.3

you know your answer is correct because c is always the biggest side
