Answer:
28 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a total of 5 boxes, now we know that each box weighs 9 pounds, therefore:
Total weight = 5 * 9 = 45 pounds
Which means there are 45 pounds in total.
We are told that the limit is exceeded by 17 pounds. To find the limit weight, it is necessary to subtract the total weight and the excess:
45-17 = 28 pounds
Therefore, the maximum weight allowed per shipment is 28 pounds.
Answer:
160 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Company A form $130 a day plus $0.30 per mile
Company A = 130 + 0.30x
Company B charges $50 a day plus $0.80 per mile
Company B = 50 + 0.80x
Where,
x = number of miles
Equate the cost of company A and company B
130 + 0.30x = 50 + 0.80x
Collect like terms
130 - 50 = 0.80x - 0.30x
80 = 0.50x
Divide both sides by 0.50x
x = 80 / 0.50
= 160
x = 160 miles
The number of miles in a day at which the rental costs for Company A and Company B are the same is 160 miles
All of the answers are correct except the last one
X^2 - 14 = -10
x^2 = -10 + 14
x^2 = 4....take the square root of both sides, eliminating the ^2
x = (+-) sqrt 4
x = 2 and x = -2
