A moving truck is rented at $1,000 per day plus a charge per hour of use. The moving truck was used for 9 hours one day, and the

total charge was $2,700. Which equation can be used to find the charge x, in dollars, per hour of use?

1000 is our constant because the truck was only used one day. We also know they charge a certain amount per hour, but we do not know how much. In this case they charged that amount 9 times because the truck was used for 9 hours. The total of the constant plus the 9hour fee is 2700 dollars:

1000(1) + 9x = 2700

The reason we multiply 1000 by 1, is because we only used the truck for one day.

Solve for x

9x = 2700 - 1000 = 1700

X = 1700/9 = 188.88

The hourly fee is $188.88
The question is asking for an equation for hours of use though, so the answer is

1000(1) + 9(188.88) = C

C represents cost or charge.

First you have to subtract the total amount charged from the $1000 per day charge.

So: 2700-1000 = 1700

Then you divide the number of hours into the remaining money.

So: 1700/9= $188.88 per hour (or so)

Let R1 and R2 are the remainders when the polynomials x^3 + 2x^2 − 5ax − 7 and x^3 + ax^2 − 12x + 6 are divided by x + 1 and x −
Andru [333]

Answer:

2.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: x³ + 2x² - 5ax - 7      and  x³ + ax² - 12x + 6

Also, R1 + R2 = 6

in order to find the value of a:

Let p(x) = x³ + 2x² - 5ax - 7 and q(x) = x³ + ax² - 12x + 6

Using remainder theorem i.e if a polynomial p(x) is divisible by polynomial of form x - a then remainder is given by p(a).

Then,

R1 = p( -1 ) = (-1)³ + 2(-1)² - 5a(-1) - 7 = -1 + 2 + 5a - 7 = 5a - 6

R2 = q( 2 ) = 2³ + a(2)² - 12(2) + 6 = 8 + 4a - 24 + 6 = 4a - 10

Now,

R1 + R2 = 6

5a - 6 + 4a - 10 = 6

9a = 22

a=2.44

Therefore, Value of a is 2.44
