Answer:
x = 87/28
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) If we let x be the number of miles and y be the total cost, the equation for relating the number of miles and the total cost would be,
y = 0.4x + 48
(b) If the rental cost is 60,
60 = 0.4x + 48
The value of x from the equation is 30.
(c) You may prepare the table of values by allowing x be any number and then solve for y until we arrive with an answer for y being equal to 60.
The answer is 87
For this problem, the method I used was more of a guess and check because I simply plugged the options into a calculator to see which one would be closest a little bit past 9.3 but not all the way 9.4
the square root of 87 is 9.32 so you would round down while the square root of 88 is 9.38 which would round up
Hope this helps :)
In 5 years, the price increased about 30%.
I am not good at perentages, so correct me if I'm wrong. Also this is an estimation, not the exact percentage.
y + 8 = 1/3 (x+6)
With the given information, we can use the point-slope formula, , to write the equation of the line. Substitute values for the , , and in the formula to do so.
The represents the slope, so substitute in its place. The and represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, so substitute -6 for and -8 for . This gives the following answer and equation (just make sure to convert the double negatives into positives:
