Questions (contd)
(a) For what amount of driving do the two plans cost the same?
(b) What is the cost when the two plans cost the same?
Answer:
(a) 100 miles
(b) $65
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Plan 1:

per mile
Plan 2:

per mile
Solving (a): Number of miles when both plans are equal
Represent the distance with x and the cost with y
So:
Plan 1:

Plan 2:

To solve (a), we equate both plans together; i.e.


Collect Like Terms


Solve for x


Hence, 100 mile would cost both plans the same
Solving (b): Cost when both plans are the same:
In this case, we simply substitute 100 for x in any of the y equation.




<em>Hence, the amount is $65</em>
Answer:
D(9, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
A being the midpoint means its coordinates satisfy ...
A = (E + D)/2
Solving for D, we find ...
D = 2A -E
= 2(4, 5) -(-1, 9) = (2·4 +1, 2·5 -9)
D = (9, 1)
Answer:
You will have $1628.16 per month in discretionary money.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the amount of money you have left for discretionary purposes at the end of the money, you need to calculate the total amount of your monthly pay is going towards expenses and savings. Since there are 12 months in a year, your monthly income is $3072. Of that amount, you spend 32% on housing and 15% on savings, for a total of 47%. The remaining percentage of your income would be considered discretionary, which would account for 53%. To find the amount of money, you take your monthly income and multiply it by 53%, or .53, which gives you $1628.16.
Cannot reduce, it is already in simplest form. You can convert it to a decimal though, 0.671875
