1. when you see 4(x² - 1), then you have to multiply 4 with everything in the bracket. keep in mind that you always have to be cautious of the sign whether it is a positive or a negative.

positive ×/÷ positive = positive
negative ×/÷ negative = positive
positive ×/÷ negative = negative
negative ×/÷ positive = negative

^ you have to remember this.

2. only like terms (same alphabet) can plus or minus each other.

3. simplify by taking out the common factor and placing it outside the bracket.

You want to rent a car for the day.Prestige car rentals charges $47 plus $0.07 per mile to rent a midsize vehicle . Gateway Auto

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

240 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Charges offered by Prestige car rentals for renting a midsize vehicle:

Fixed charges = $47

Per mile charges for renting a midsize vehicle = $0.07

Charges offered by Gateway Auto for renting a midsize vehicle:

Fixed charges = $35

Per mile charges for renting a midsize vehicle = $0.12

To find:

Number of miles for which both the companies charge the same price?

Solution:

Let the number of miles for which both the companies will charge the same price = $x$ miles

Charges for one mile by Prestige car rentals = $0.07

Charges for $x$ miles by Prestige car rentals = $0.07 $x$

Total charges by Prestige Car rentals = $47 + $0.07 $x$

Charges for one mile by Gateway Auto = $0.12

Charges for $x$ miles by Gateway Auto = $0.12 $x$

Total charges by Gateway Auto = $35 + $0.12 $x$

As per question statement, the charges are same:

$\$47 + \$0.07x = \$35 + \$0.12x\\\Rightarrow 12=0.05x\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1200}{5}\\\Rightarrow \bold{x=240\ miles}$

Mervin has some cartons of milk. He sold 2/5 of milk in the morning. He sold 3/4 of the remainder in the afternoon. 24 more cart

sergejj [24]

2/5 were sold in the morning. This is equal to 40% of the total. That leaves 60% leftover.

3/4 were sold in the afternoon. This is equal to 75% of the 60% leftover or 45% of the total (.6x.75).

The difference between the two sales is 24 cartons or 5% (45%-40%). If 5% is equal to 24 then you can cross multiply to see what is the equivalent number of cartons out of 100%.

5/100 = 24/x

5x = 24(100)

5x = 2400

x = 480

ANSWER: 480 cartons
