Answer:

(a)\ c(x) = 39 + 0.09 x

(b)\ \$53.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base\ Charge = \$39

Rate = 0.09 per mile

Solving (a): Linear Equation

The total charges (c(x)) is: the base charge + the rate * number of miles (x).

So, we have:

c(x)= 39 + 0.09 * x

c(x) = 39 + 0.09 x

Solving (b): Cost of rent, if miles = 160

This implies that x = 160

So, we have:

c(x) = 39 + 0.09 x

c(160) = 39 + 0.09 *160

c(160) = 39 + 14.4

c(160) = 53.4

A rope pulling a sled is sloped at 15° upward at the point of contact. The tension in the rope is 50.0 N. What is the horizontal
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

The horizontal component of the force is 48 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle that the rope makes with with the horizontal is 15°, that means, the horizontal component of the force F_H is

cos(15^o)=\frac{F_H}{50N}

\boxed{ F_H=50N*cos(15^o)=48N}

What is the equation in standard form of the line that passes through the point (1, 24) and has a slope of -0.6.
lana [24]

Answer:

0.6x+y=24.6

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-24=-0.6(x-1)

y=-0.6x+0.6+24

y=-0.6x+24.6

y-(-0.6x)=24.6

y+0.6x=24.6

0.6x+y=24.6
