Answer:

177

Step-by-step explanation:

First you must subtract the base fee from the total amount of the bill:187.68 - 15.99= 171.69

Then divide the remaining amount of the bill by the charge of .97 cents per mile:171.69/.97=177

C. Are 2b + b and 3b equivalent expressions​
Alecsey [184]

Answer: Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine you have b = 2.

Plug 2 into the equation 2b + b = 3b

You get: 2(2) + 2 = 3(2)

Which solves to be 6 = 6

As long as the variable is the same, in this case b, and they are to the same power, in this case ^1, you can combine them.

The area of a storage shed floor is 20 ft2. The length is 3 more than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the storage shed f
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

  • 2.5 ft wide
  • 8 ft long

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relation between length and width can be used to write an expression for area. The equation setting that equal to the given area can be solved to find the shed dimensions.

__

<h3>Given relation</h3>

Let x represent the width of the shed. Then the length is (2x+3), and the area is ...

  A = LW

  20 = (2x+3)(x) . . . . . area of the shed

__

<h3>Solution</h3>

Completing the square gives ...

  2x² +3x +1.125 = 21.125 . . . . . . add 2(9/16) to both sides

  2(x +0.75)² = 21.125 . . . . . . . write as a square

  x +0.75 = √10.5625 . . . . . divide by 2, take the square root

  x = -0.75 +3.25 = 2.50 . . . . . subtract 0.75, keep the positive solution

The width of the shed is 2.5 feet; the length is 2(2.5)+3 = 8 feet.

Used books: 9
New books: 8

(a) all books: used books

A stock with a beta greater than 1.0 has returns that are​ ________ volatile than the​ market, and a stock with a beta of less t
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

more, less

Step-by-step explanation:

Beta is a measure of volatility. It is used in calculating the cost of equity using the CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model formula).

A beta greater than 1 signifies that the returns from an investment is expected to be higher than the returns from the general market as the risk inherent in that investment is higher.

Similar to the economic concepts of elasticity, a change in one variable (in this case, beta of the stock) setting about a greater than proportionate change in another variable (returns from the stock).

Thus, a stock with beta of less than 1, will be less volatile than the market.

I hope this helps you understand the concept better.
