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>

Write the equation of the line that passes through 7, 0 and is parallel to y = -3x + 4​
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

y = - 3x + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 3x + 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (7, 0 ) into the partial equation

0 = - 21 + c ⇒ c = 0 + 21 = 21

y = - 3x + 21 ← equation of parallel line

We can use quadratic formula to determine the roots of the given quadratic equation.

The quadratic formula is:

x= \frac{-b+- \sqrt{ b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}

b = coefficient of x term = -11
a = coefficient of squared term = 2
c = constant term = 15

Using the values, we get:
x= \frac{11+- \sqrt{121-4(2)(15)} }{2(2)} \\  \\ &#10;x= \frac{11+-1}{4} \\  \\ &#10;x=3, x= 2.5

So, the correct answer to this question are option B and D

a parabolic lamp is facing due east. The bulb (located at the focus) is 8 inches away from the vertex (located at the origin). t
True [87]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3 1/8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

For focus-vertex distance p, the equation of the parabola can be written ...

  y = x^2/(4p)

Here, we have p=8. We want to find the value of y when x=10 (the radius of the dish). That is ...

  y = (10^2)/(4·8) = 100/32 = 3 1/8

The dish is 3 1/8 inches deep.

Tony allows his customers to create their own pizza. The customers choose exactly one type of crust, sauce, cheese, and meat for
Natalka [10]

In cases like these, you simply have to multiply the choices you have for each step.

In fact, you can choose between 4 different crusts. For each of these crusts you can choose 4 different sauces. This means that there are 4\cdot 4 = 16 choices at this point. In fact, if we call the crust options 1,2,3,4 and the sauce options A,B,C,D, the 16 possible combinations are

1A,\ 1B,\ 1C,\ 1D,\ 2A,\ 2B,\ 2C,\ 2D,\ 3A,\ 3B,\ 3C,\ 3D,\ 4A,\ 4B,\ 4C,\ 4D

From here, you keep going multiplying the number of options for each step, for a total of

4\cdot 4 \cdot 3 \cdot 4 = 192

The length of a rectangle is 4 more than the width. Find the width of the rectangle if the area is 32.
Serggg [28]

Answer:

length = 8

width = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length x breadth

Let x represent the width

length = x + 4

32 = x × (x + 4)

32 = x² + 4x

x² + 4x  - 32  = 0

solving using quadratic equation =

(x² - 4x) -32 + 8x

x = 4 or -8

since width cannot be a negative number, we would use 4
