Answer:

w = 40 miles per hour

r = 300 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We add w with the wind and subtract w against the wind

r+w = 340 miles per hour

r - w = 260 miles per hour

Add the two equations together to eliminate w

r+w = 340 miles per hour

r - w = 260 miles per hour

----------------------------------------

2r = 600

Divide by 2

r = 300 miles per hour without the wind

Now find w

r+w = 340

300 + w = 340

Subtract 300

w = 340-300

w = 40 miles per hour

A rental car company charges $53.75 per day to rent a car and $0.12 for every mile driven. Jaya wants to rent a car, knowing tha
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Jaya can afford to rent a car 4 days while staying within her budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality would have to indicate that the cost of renting a car has to be less than or equal to $230. The cost to rent a car is equal to the cost per day for the number of days plus the price per mile for the number of miles, which is:

53.75x+0.12y≤230, where:

x is the number of days the car is rented

y is the number of miles driven

As the statement says that she plans to drive 125 miles, you can replace "y" with this value and solve for x:

53.75x+0.12(125)≤230

53.75x+15≤230

53.75x≤230-15

53.75x≤215

x≤215/53.75

x≤4

According to this, the answer is that Jaya can afford to rent a car 4 days while staying within her budget.
