<h2>Equation </h2>

40 + 15 + 0.25x = 45 + 0.35y

<h3>Solution </h3>

55 + 0.25x = 45 + 0.35y The only way you can do this is to assume that x and y are equal

subtract 45 from both sides

55 - 45 + 0.25x = 0.35x

10 + 0.25x = 0.35x Subtract 0.25x from both sides.

10 = 0.35x - 0.25x

10 = 0.1x Divide by 0.1

10/0.1 = x

x = 100 So if each car goes 100 miles, it should turn out to be the same no matter which company gets the rental.

Let's see if that is true.

Cost for the first company = 40 + 15 + 0.25x = 55 + 25 = 80 dollars.

Cost for the second company = 45 + 0.35x = 45 + 35 = 80 dollars.

Conclusion

Both rentals charge the same total amount when each car is driven 100 miles.

The charge is 80 dollars.

Hope this helped! :)

Write and solve a story problem about gathering three kinds of vegetables. Use 10 partners.
marta [7]

Answer:

Cameron and Rebecca are organizing a lunch for their friends. Within the dishes to be served, they will prepare a tomato, carrot and broccoli salad. The number of tomatoes and carrots are 10-partners and the total amount of vegetables is 12. If we increase the number of broccoli by three and decrease the number of tomatoes by two, the amount of tomatoes and broccoli will also be 10-partners. What is the number of tomatoes, carrots and broccoli bought by Cameron and Rebecca?

<u>Cameron and Rebecca purchased 7 tomatoes, 3 carrots and 2 broccoli.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of tomatoes = x

Number of carrots = 10 - x

Number of broccoli = y

System of Equations:

x + 10 - x + y = 12

y = 12 - 10

y = 2

x - 2 + y + 3 = 10 (If we increase the number of broccoli by three and decrease the number of tomatoes by two, the amount of tomatoes and broccoli will also be 10-partners)

x + 1 + y = 10

x + y = 9

y = 9 - x

Substitution of y:

x + 10 - x + y = 12

x + 10 - x + 9 - x = 12

-x + 19 = 12

-x = 12 - 19

x = 7 ⇒ 10 - x = 3

<u>Cameron and Rebecca purchased 7 tomatoes, 3 carrots and 2 broccoli.</u>

Complete the square to transform the expression x2 + 4x + 2 into the form a(x − h)2 + k.
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x^2 + 4x)      + 2

Take 1/2 of the linear term 4/2 = 2 and square that result. 2^2 = 4.

Put it after 4x

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4)   +2  Subtract what you put inside the brackets on the outside.

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4) + 2 - 4      Combine the right.

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4) - 2            Express the brackets as a square.

y = (x + 2)^2 - 2

That's your answer

a = 1

h = 2

k = -2
