Scott will rent a car for the weekend. He can choose one of two plans. the first plan has an initial fee of $55 and costs an add
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

This problem is about linear equations. We assume Dale drive X miles, and the total cost is $Y, then we can get:

Plan I: Y=38+0.11X

Plan II: Y=49+0.07X

When both plans cost the same, 38+0.11X=49+0.07X. We will get X = 275miles, and Y=$68.25

PQ has endpoints P(-3,2) and Q(3,-2). Find the coordinates of the midpoint of PQ
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

(0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this, you need to use the midpoint formula.

(-3) + 3                      2 + (-2)

--------------      ,       ----------------

     2                               2

This leads to:

-3 + 3 = 0 -> 0/2

x = 0

3 + (-3) = 0 -> 0/2

The answer is:

(0, 0)

Literal equations, please help! this one is confusing to me.
sertanlavr [38]
What is asked here is that you isolate y so that the equation takes the form of y = ..., where ... will be something that contains a, b and c but not y. So how do we get there? By applying some standard permutations to equations like so:

aby - b = c

First, we bring the -b term to the right hand side by adding b left and right:

aby -b+b = c+b

The -b and +b cancel out, so we get:

aby = c + b

Then, we divide left and right hand side by ab:

aby/ab = (c+b)/ab

Again, the ab/ab on the left cancels out (it is 1), so we get:

y = (c+b)/ab

And we're done!

So you have to know that it is allowed to add or subtract something (anything) to/from the left and right hand side of an equation. Likewise, you have to know that it is allowed to multiply or divide by something, as long as it isn't 0.
