Answer:  Equation: 17.95 + 0.18x = 40            

 122.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the rental fee is $17.95  then it will not change in any situation plus 18 cents per mile  driven, then we can represent that by the expression ,  

17.95 + 0.18x  where x is the number of miles driven.

She has $40 so we will set the expression to equal $40.

17.95 + 0.18x = 40     Now to solve for x subtract 17.95 from both sides

-17.95               -17.95

 0.18x = 22.05  Divide both sides by 0.18

x = 122.5

A rectangular exercise mat has a perimeter of 36 feet . The length mat is twice the width. Write and solve an equation to determ
Goshia [24]
ANSWER

72 square feet

EXPLANATION

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

P= 2l+2w

It was given that, the perimeter of the rectangular mat, is 36 feet.

36= 2l+2w

Divide through by 2.

18 = l + w...(1)

It was given also that, the length of the mat is twice its width.

This implies that,

l = 2w ...(2)

Put equation (2) into equation (1) to get,

18 = 2w + w

18 = 3w

w = 6 \: ft

This means that the length is 12 ft.

The area of the rectangular mat is

A = l \times w

A = 6 \times 12 = 72 {ft}^{2}

How do I get X for this question?​
exis [7]

Answer:

The value of x is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, we need to note that the interior angles are equal to 180. We also know that angle R is equal to 180 - (8 + 6x). So we can add all of this together and set equal to 180.

180 - (8 + 6x) + 4x + 2 + 30 = 180

180 - 8 - 6x + 4x + 2 + 30 = 180

-2x + 24 = 0

-2x = -24

x = 12

A line passes through the point (-8, 6) and has a slope of 3/2
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

y-6=3/2(x+8)

Step-by-step explanation:

so the point slope form is  y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

so enter the points (-8, 6)

y-6= 3/2(x-(-8))

y-6=3/2(x+8)
