Hi Lawrence!
---------------------------------------------------
We Know:
Powersports Plus: $30 an hour plus a non-refundable deposit of $50.
Sun & Surf: $20 an hour plus a non-refundable deposit of $80.
---------------------------------------------------
Equation:
x = per hour
y = total
Powersports: 30x + 50 = y
Sun and Surf: 20x + 80 = y
---------------------------------------------------
Solution: (Add the deposit then start adding hourly costs)
Powersports: 80, 110, 140
Sun and Surf: 100, 120, 140
---------------------------------------------------
Answer: After <u>3 hours</u> both companies will cost the same amount of money.

Hope This Helps :)
(-2,6) (5,-8)
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-8 - 6) / (5 - (-2) = -14/7 = -2 <==
midpoint = (x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2
m = (-2 + 5)/2 , (6 - 8)/2
m = (3/2, -1) <===
distance = sqrt ((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
d = sqrt ((5 - (-2)^2 + (-8 - 6)^2)
d = sqrt ((5 + 2)^2 + (-14^2))
d = sqrt (7^2 + 14^2)
d = sqrt (49 + 196)
d = sqrt 245
d = 15.65 <==
1) 12 out of 14 = 85% Win Rate
2) Now you have to figure out what is 85% of 21 so you have to plug in what you have ? out of 21 = .85
3) Multiply 21 x .85
4) Answer is They will win 18 out of 21 games
