Two beach rental companies compared their sales from last weekend. Both companies rent out jet skis and kayaks, and they charge

the same prices. Will's Watersports made a total of $780 from renting 12 jet skis and 9 kayaks. Family Fun Rentals made a total of $570 from renting 7 jet skis and 11 kayaks. What is the cost of each type of rental?

Answer:

To rent a jet ski you need to pay $50 and to rent a kayak you need to pay $20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both shops charge the same amount for each kind of vehicle, we will assign variables to the their cost. The cost of a jet ski will be "x" and the cost of the kayak will be "y". Therefore we can create a system of equations as shown below:

Will's shop:

12*x + 9*y = 780

Fun Rentals:

7*x + 11*y = 570

\left \{ {{12x+ 9y=780} \atop {7x + 11y =570}} \right.\\

We can isolate "x" on the second equation, we have:

x = \frac{570 - 11y}{7}

Applying this value on the first equation:

12[\frac{570 - 11y}{7}] + 9y = 780\\\frac{6840 - 132y}{7} + 9y = 780\\\frac{6840 - 132y + 63y}{7} = 780\\ 6840 - 132y + 63y = 5460\\6840 - 69y = 5460\\69y = 1380\\y = 20

Applying the value of "y" we found on the "x" equation above, we have:x = \frac{570 - 11*20}{7}\\x = 50\\

Therefore to rent a jet ski you need to pay $50 and to rent a kayak you need to pay $20

Identifying the slope, y-intercept and x- intercept of each
Elena L [17]

Answer:

slope= -3

y-intercept= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

To solve this problem, one needs the slope and the y-intercept. First, one will solve for the slope, using the given points, then input it into the equation of a line in slope-intercept form. The one can solve for the y-intercept.

2.Solve for the slope

The formula to find the slope of a line is;

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Where (m) is the variable used to represent the slope.

Use the first two given points, and solve;

(1, 3), (2, 0)

Substitute in,

\frac{(0)-(3)}{(2)-(1)}

Simplify;

\frac{-3}{1}\\\\=-3

3. Put equation into slope-intercept form

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is;

y = mx + b

Where (m) is the slope, and (b) is the y-intercept.

Since one solved for the slope, substitute that in, then substitute in another point, and solve for the parameter (b).

y=-3x+b

Substitute in point (3, -3)

-3=-3(3)+b\\-3 = -9 + b\\6 = b

A rectangle has a length that is three feet more than twice it’s width. If the area of the rectangle is 90 square feet, then alg
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Length=27feet\\Width=12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the length of the rectangle be 'L'

and, width of the rectangle be 'W'

length=2*Width+3

L=(2W+3) feet\\\\

Area of the rectangle= 90 square feet

Area of a rectangle = Length*Width

90=(2W+3)*W\\\\2W^2+3W=90\\\\2W^2+3W-90=0\\\\

Using Factorization Method to solve quadratic equation:

2W^2-12W+15W-90=0

Taking common from the equation:

2W(W-12)+15(W-12)=90\\\\(W-12)(2W+15)=0\\\\W-12=0\\\\W=12 feet

OR

2W+15=0\\\\2W=-15\\\\W=-7.5 feet

The Width cannot be negative, therefore Width(W)=12 feet

Length=2*Width+3\\\\=(12*2)+3\\\\=24+3\\\\=27 feet

Length=27feet\\Width=12 feet
