What we know... Parents car is $8,000 --- Volvo costs $8,000 x 3 3/4
3 3/4 is the same as 3.75
$8,000 x 3.75 = $30,000
Matt Kaminsky's Volvo costs $30,000
Answer:
x = 13
Arc RQ = 180°
Step-by-step explanation:
PEQ is an inscribed angle and the measure of an inscribed angle in a circle is equal to half of the arc it sees.
The perimeter of a circle is always 360° therefore
2 × (5x + 15) + 9x + 17 + 6x - 12 = 25x + 35 = 360°
25x = 360 - 35
25x = 325
x = 13
Since arc RQ is equal to 10x + 30 we replace x with the value we just got
10×13 + 30 = 160°
First, let's make these two into equations.
The first plan has an initial fee of $40 and costs an additional $0.16 per mile driven.
Our equation would then be
C = 40 + 0.16m
where C is the total cost, and m is the number of miles driven.
The second plan has an initial fee of $51 and costs an additional $0.11 per mile driven.
So, the equation is
C = 51 + 0.11m
where C is the total cost, and m is the number of miles driven.
Now, your question seems to be asking for one mileage for both, equalling one cost. I would go through all the steps I've taken to try and find this for you, but it would probably take hours to type out and read. In short, I'm not entirely sure that an answer like that is possible in this situation, simply because of the large difference in the initial fee of the two plans, along with the sparse common multiples between the two mileage costs.
