Answer:

<u>Both rental companies will charge the same amount ($ 440) for 15 rental days</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the problem correctly:

Jim Bob's Equipment rate = delivery fee of $230 plus an additional $14 per day

Jonny’s Equipment Rentals = delivery fee of $95 plus an additional $23 per day

2. Determine the number of rental days for which both rental companies charge the same amount.

x = Rental days

Now, let's write the equation to solve for x, this way:

Jim Bob's Equipment rate = 230 + 14x

Jonny’s Equipment Rentals = 95 + 23x

230 + 14x = 95 + 23x

14x - 23x = 95 - 230

-9x = -135

x = -135/-9

<u>x = 15</u>

230 + 14 * 15 = 95 + 23 * 15

230 + 210 = 95 + 345

440 = 440

<u>Both rental companies will charge the same amount ($ 440) for 15 rental days</u>

Alenkasestr [34]

In the case above, Talib work is not correct as one need to first switch x and y before one can solve for y.

<h3>What is the variables  about?</h3>

Note that:

y=-8x+4

y-4=-8x

(y-4)/-8=x

Since the independent variable x is known, one can switch the variable labels and thus it will be:

y=(x-4)/-8

f^-1(x)=(x-4)/-8    

This can be written again as:

f^-1(x)=(4-x)/8  :P

Thus one can say  No, as he forgot to switch the variable labels after solving for the independent variable.

In the case above, Talib work is not correct as one need to first switch x and y before one can solve for y.

See the first part of the question below

Talib is trying to find the inverse of the function to the right. His work appears beneath it. Is his work correct? Explain your answer.

A 5-gallon jug of cleaning solution contains 6% bleach. How much pure water should be added to it to dilute to 4% bleach?
mihalych1998 [28]
Let's bear in mind that 5 gallons with a solution of 6% bleach, contains some water plus some bleach, how much bleach?  well, is just 6% of 5 gallons or namely (6/100) * 5 gallons, or 0.30 gallons.

if we use "x" gallons of water, well pure water has no bleach, so is 0% bleach, and it has a (0/100) * x or 0x gallons of bleach.

the mixture will be say "y" gallons, and is 4% bleach, so (4/100) * y is 0.04y gallons in the mixture of bleach.

\bf \begin{array}{lcccl}&#10;&\stackrel{gallons}{quantity}&\stackrel{\textit{\% of bleach}}{amount}&\stackrel{\textit{gallons of bleach}}{amount}\\&#10;&------&------&------\\&#10;\textit{pure water}&x&0.00&0x\\&#10;\textit{6\% solution}&5&0.06&0.3\\&#10;-----&------&------&------\\&#10;mixture&y&0.04&0.04y&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;x+5=\boxed{y}\\&#10;0x+0.3=0.04y\\&#10;---------\\&#10;0.3=0.04\left( \boxed{x+5} \right)&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;0.3=0.04x+0.2\implies 0.1=0.04x\implies \cfrac{0.1}{0.04}=x\implies 2.5=x
