Answer:

-28

Step-by-step explanation:

The big thing to remember here is

Slope=Rise/Run

We can put x for the run and get this equation

21/x=-3/4

From here it gets really easy. To find the value of x we can change -3/4 into 21/-28 because in this case we need a common numerator. 21/x=21/-28 and it is obvious that x=-28

Hope this helped let me know if you have questions.

n200080 [17]

Answer:

$158.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The Maple Car Rental Comany charges a flat fee of $45 plus 35 cents per mile

And we have to write a linear equation that gives the total cost in terms of numbers of miles driven then find the total cost if the renter drives 325 miles.

Solution:

Total cost = 35 cents of renter drives in miles + fixed charge of the car

Total cost = $0.35\times325 +45$

$= 113.75 + 45\\= 158.75$

Thus, total cost is $158.75, when the renter drives 325 miles.
