The cost of a car rental is $25 per day plus 22 per mile. You are on a daily budget of $90. Write and solve an inequality to f

Answer: You can drive, at most, 2.95 miles per day.

x ≤ 2.95

Step-by-step explanation:

In a single day, you can spend at most $90

Then if C represents the cost of renting the car, then we will have the inequality:

C ≤ $90

Now let's find the equation for C.

We know that we have a fixed cost of $25 plus $22 per mile, then if you drive x miles, the total cost will be $25 plus x times $22, or:

C = $25 + x*$22.

We can now replace that in the inequality:

$25 + x*$22 ≤ $90

Now let's isolate the variable x

x*$22 ≤ $90 - $25

x*$22 ≤ $65

x ≤ $65/$22 = 2.95

x ≤ 2.95

You can drive at most, 2.95 miles per day.

To find other inequalities with the same solution we can start with the solution:

x ≤ 2.95

Now let's multiply both sides by a number (the units of the number can be dollars, in that way we can make a similar problem)

Let's multiply both sides by $10:

x*$10 ≤ 2.95*$10 = $29.5

x*$10 ≤ $29.5

Now let's add the same number in both sides, for example, $5.

x*$10 + $5 ≤ $29.5 + $5 = $34.5

x*$10 + $5 ≤ $34.5

We could write this problem as:

"To rent a cab in your city, you have an initial cost of $5, plus $10 for each mile driven. How many miles could you drive if at most you can spend $34.50?"

You could be more creative with the problem, but this is the way in which you can craft problems of this type when you already know the solution.

The diagram shows a 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm cube.

Answer:

~8.66cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a diagonal of a rectangular of sides a and b is

$\sqrt{a^2+b^2}$

in a cube, we can start by computing the diagonal of a rectangular side/wall containing A and then the diagonal of the rectangle formed by that diagonal and the edge leading to A. If the cube has sides a, b and c, we infer that the length is:

$\sqrt{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}^2 + c^2} = \sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2}$

Using this reasoning, we can prove that in a n-dimensional space, the length of the longest diagonal of a hypercube of edge lengths $a_1, a_2, a_3, \ldots, a_n$ is
