Answer:

More than 250 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Rental cost of company A is $80 + $0.6 per mile driven and company B also has a rental cost of $30 + $0.8 per mile driven.

To find the moment when company A rental cost matches that of company B,we have to create an equation that is ideal for both parties.

80 +0.6x = 30 + 0.8x

Where x is the number of miles traveled by both trucks.

Simplifying the above equation, we have

0.2x = 50 divide both sides by 0.2

= 250 miles is when both rental cost matches .

Therefore, the number of miles needed to be driven so as the rental cost of company A to better company B should be more than 250 miles

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (7,-9) and (15, -29)?
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

-2.5

I got -2.5 as slope because slope is equal to rise over run so that means

the equation would turn out as -29+9/15-7=-20/8

-20/8=-2 4/8,-2 1/2,1/2=0.5,so the answer turns into -2.5

What is the slope the line that passes through the points:<br> (-6, 14), (2, -18)
Vesna [10]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Here's how to find the slope given any two points.

Subtract the y values.

14-(-18+-14+18=32

Subtract the x values.

-6-2=-8

And divide those.

32/-8=-4

The slope is -4.

Have a wonderful day! :D

A community theater uses the function p (d) = (-4d+40) (d−40) to model the profit (in dollars) expected in a weekend when the ti
fomenos

The theater make the maximum profit at d = $25. Then the maximum profit of the theatre is $ 900.

<h3>What is differentiation?</h3>

The rate of change of a function with respect to the variable is called differentiation. It may be increasing or decreasing.

A community theater uses the function P(d) = (− 4d + 40) (d − 40) to model the profit (in dollars) expected on a weekend when the tickets to a comedy show are priced at d dollars each.

Then the maximum profit of the theatre will be

The function is P(d) = (− 4d + 40) (d − 40)

Differentiate the function with respect to d and put it equal to zero for maximum or minimum profit.

\begin{aligned} \dfrac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} d}P(d) &= 0\\\\\dfrac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} d}(- 4d + 40) (d - 40) &= 0\\\\(-4d+40) -4 (d-40) &= 0\\\\-8d + 200 &= 0\\\\d &= 25 \end{aligned}

Then the checking for maximum or minimum, again differentiate, we have

\begin{aligned} \dfrac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} d}P(d) &= \dfrac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} d}(- 4d + 40) (d - 40) \\\\\dfrac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} d}P(d) &= \dfrac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} d}(-8d + 200) \\\\\dfrac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} d}P(d) &= -8\\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} d}P(d) & < 0\end{aligned}

The value is less than zero hence maximum value will occur at d = 25.

Then maximum profit will be

P(d) = (− 4×25 + 40) (25 − 40)

P(d) = (− 100 + 40) (−15)

P(d) = (− 60) (− 15)

P(d) = $ 900
