The value of x is 243
(correct me if wrong)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Base fee = $17.99
Additional charge = $0.95 for each mile driven
If Kevin paid $157.64 when he returned the truck and we want to find out how many miles he drove the truck, step 1 would be to subtract the base fee.
157.65 - 17.99 = 139.65
This means that the remaining $139.65 is how much he paid for the miles he drove.
Since we know each mile costs $0.95.
Simply divide $139.65 by $0.95 to work out how many miles he drove.
Miles driven = 139.65 / 0.95 = ?
Depends on what kind of a triangle
5x-2>3
=> 5x > 3+2
=> x > 5/5
=> x > 1
