Answer:
287 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The base fee was $17.99 and an additional 76 cents ($0.76) for every mile.
We can represent the amount he will pay for rent with the equation below:
C = 17.99 + 0.76m
where m = number of miles driven
Jim paid $236.11, therefore:
236.11 = 17.99 + 0.76m
0.76m = 236.11 - 17.99
0.76m =218.12
m = 218.12 / 0.76 = 287 miles
Jim drove 287 miles.
Answer:
perpendicular
Step-by-step explanation:
When 2 lines intersect at any point, not just in the middle of each (that has nothing to do with it), and they meet to form right angles, the lines are perpendicular to one another and their slopes are opposite reciprocals.
Let our basis be worth 1 dollar. A nickel's worth is $0.05. In order to come up with $1, the number of nickels should be:
Number of nickels = $1 * 1 nickel/$0.05 = 20 nickels
Thickness of 20 nickels = 20 nickels * 1.95 mm = 39 mm
Let's do the same for the quarters. Each quarter is worth $0.25.
Number of quarters = $1 * 1 quarter/$0.25 = 4 quarters
Thickness of 4 quarters = 4 quarters * 1.75 mm = 7 mm
Find the ratio of the two:
39 mm/7 mm = 5.57
Therefore, a stack of nickels is 5.57 times thicker than a stack of quarters worth one dollar.
