A local company rents a moving truck for $750 plus $0.59 per mile driven over 1000 mi. What is the maximum number of miles the t

Katen [24]

The maximum number of miles the truck can be driven so that the rental cost is at most $\$1000$ is $\boxed{1423{\text{ miles}}}.$

Further explanation:

Given:

A local company rents a moving truck for $\$ 750.$

Rent per mile is $\$ 0.59$ if the truck moves more than 1000 miles.

Explanation:

The rental cost of the truck is $\$ 750$ if he drove less than 1000 miles.

${\text{Cost}} = \$ 750{\text{ }}x \leqslant 1000$

The rental cost of the truck can be expressed as follows,

${\text{Cost}} = 750 + 0.59x{\text{ }}x > 1000$

The rental cost is at most $\$1000.$

$750 + 0.59x \leqslant 1000$

The maximum number of miles can be obtained as follows,

$\begin{aligned}0.59x &\leqslant 1000 - 750\\0.59x &\leqslant 250\\x &\leqslant \frac{{250}}{{0.59}}\\x &\leqslant 423.7\\\end{aligned}$

The maximum number of miles can be obtained as follows,

$\begin{aligned}{\text{Maximum miles}} &= 1000 + 423\\&= 1423 \\\end{aligned}$

The maximum number of miles the truck can be driven so that the rental cost is at most $\$1000$ is $\boxed{1423{\text{ miles}}}.$

Solve for x: 10(x + 1) = 2x - 7

Lisa [10]

Answer:Simplifying

x = -2.125

Step-by-step explanation:Add '-10' to each side of the equation.

10 + -10 + 8x = -7 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0

0 + 8x = -7 + -10

8x = -7 + -10

Combine like terms: -7 + -10 = -17

8x = -17

Divide each side by '8'.

x = -2.125

Simplifying

x = -2.125

Find the Diameter of the Circle with the following equation. Round to the nearest tenth.

Radda [10]

The diameter of the circle is 11.8 units

<h3>How to determine the diameter of the circle?</h3>

The circle equation is given as:

(x - 2)^2 + (y + 6)^2 = 35

A circle equation is represented as:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

Where

Diameter = 2r

By comparing both equations, we have

r^2 = 35

Take the square root of both sides

r = 5.9

Multiply by 2

2r = 11.8

Hence, the diameter of the circle is 11.8 units
