Rita's company reimburses her expenses on food, lodging, and conveyance during business trips. The company pays $55 a day for fo

MArishka [77]

"The company pays $55 a day for food and lodging and $0.45 for each mile traveled" means that if she travels m miles and is on a trip for x days then Rita will receive:

55x + 0.45m dollars.

Rita drove 300 miles, means that m=300. Thus 55x + 0.45m becomes 

 $55x+0.45m=55x+0.45 \cdot 300=55x+135$ (dollars.)

She was reimbursed $2,335 means that $55x+135=2,335$ .

Part A: $55x+135=2,335$ .

Part B:

We are given the equation 55x+135=2,335. Subtracting 135 from both sides we have:

55x=2,335-135=2,200.

Dividing both sides by 55, we get: x=2,200/55=40.

Part C: since x represents the number of days Rita spend on this trip, and x=40, then Rita spent 40 days on this trip.

Solve a) 2(x+3)=x-4 b) 4(5x-2)=2(9x+3)

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

a) -10 b) 7

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 2(x+ 3) = x - 4

2x + 6 = x - 4

2x - x = -6 - 4

x = -10

b) 4(5x - 2) = 2(9x + 3)

20x - 8 = 18x + 6

20x - 18x = 6 + 8

2x = 14

x = 14/2

x = 7

how many bricks can my truck carry in a full load if each brick weighs 4 pounds 14 ounces and my truck can carry a 3/4 ton load

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The number of bricks a truck can carry in full load is 308 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The weight of each brick = 4 pounds and 14 ounce

The total load a truck can carry = $\dfrac{3}{4}$ tons

Let The number of bricks truck can carry = n bricks

Now, According to question

∵ 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds

∴ 14 ounce = 0.0625 × 14 = 0.875 pounds

So, Total weight of each brick = 4 pounds + 0.875 pounds = 4.875 pounds

Again

∵ 1 pound = 0.0005 tons

∴ 4.875 pounds = 0.0005 × 4.875 = 0.0024375 tons

Now, Again

The total load a truck can carry = $\dfrac{3}{4}$ tons = 0.75 tons

And The weight of each brick = 0.0024375 tons

So, The number of bricks = $\dfrac{\textrm total load a truck can carry}{\textrm Total weight of each brick}$

I.e n = $\dfrac{0.75}{0.0024375}$

∴ n = 307.69 ≈ 308

So, The number of bricks can truck carry = n = 308

Hence, The number of bricks a truck can carry in full load is 308 . Answer

The product of eight minus a number and seven equals forty when decreased by five. Which equation represents the sentence?

weeeeeb [17]

The "product" of two numbers means you multiply them.

So, you are multiplying (8-n), where n = "a number," by 7.

Then, when you decrease (subtract) this product by 5, you get 40.

So the whole thing looks like

7(8-n) - 5 = 40.
