Mr. Malone is contemplating which chauffeured car service to take to the airport. The first costs $28 upfront and $2 per mile. T

he second costs $13 plus $5 per mile. For a certain driving distance, the two companies charge the same total fare. What is the distance?

Answer:

The distance is 8 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to write an equation for each of chauffeured car services.

The first one = 28 + 2x = ?

The second one = 13 + 5x = ?

Next, we need to figure out what x is. Usually I just plug in random numbers, but I'm sure there's a better way to do it.

I first plugged in 2 as x.

28 + 4 = 32

13 + 10 = 23

That didn't work, so I then plugged in 5.

28 + 10 = 38

13 + 25 = 38

So 5 would be the correct answer for what is the distance.

If AB = 4 centimeters, which is closest to BC?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The correct answer AC = 11.52

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached with this answer shows the triangle ABC.

BC=4 centimeters, m angle B=m angle c, and m angle a = 20 degrees

To find AC

From the figure we can see that D is the mid point and AD⊥BC

Then BD = CD = 4/2 = 2 cm

<BAD = 10° and <CAD = 10°

By using trigonometric ratio,

sin 10 = CD/AC = 2/AC

AC = 2/sin 10 = 2/0.1736 = 11.52

Therefore the value of AC = 11.52 cm

Given mZ1= x° and m Z2 = (x +50)".
Tju [1.3M]

Given:

m∠1= x° and m∠2 = (x +50)°.

To find:

The value of x, m∠1 and m∠2.

Solution:

From the figure it is clear that, transversal side intersect the opposite sides which are parallel and form ∠1 and ∠2.

Sum of same sided interior angles is 180 degrees. So,

m\angle 1+m\angle 2=180^\circ

x^\circ+(x+50)^\circ=180^\circ

2x^\circ+50^\circ=180^\circ

2x^\circ=180^\circ-50^\circ

2x^\circ=130^\circ

Divide both sides by 2.

x^\circ=65^\circ

x=65

Now,

m\angle 1=65^\circ

m\angle 2=(65+50)^\circ=115^\circ

Therefore, the correct option is C.
