Answer: 1750 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of miles driven over 1000 miles. The cost of the truck rental is C= 750. For the cost to be at most $1200, solve the inequality: 750 + 0.06x≤1200 Subtract 750 from each side: Divide each side by : 0.06. X≤750

Because x represents the miles over 1000 miles, the renter can drive the truck no more than 1000 + 750 = 1750 miles for the rental cost to be less than or equal to $1200.

The maximum number of miles the truck can be driven so that the rental cost is at most \$1000 is \boxed{1423{\text{ miles}}}.

Further explanation:

Given:

A local company rents a moving truck for \$ 750.

Rent per mile is \$ 0.59 if the truck moves more than 1000 miles.

Explanation:

The rental cost of the truck is \$ 750 if he drove less than 1000 miles.

{\text{Cost}} = \$ 750{\text{   }}x \leqslant 1000

The rental cost of the truck can be expressed as follows,

{\text{Cost}} = 750 + 0.59x{\text{  }}x > 1000

The rental cost is at most \$1000.

750 + 0.59x \leqslant 1000

The maximum number of miles can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}0.59x &\leqslant 1000 - 750\\0.59x &\leqslant 250\\x &\leqslant \frac{{250}}{{0.59}}\\x &\leqslant 423.7\\\end{aligned}

The maximum number of miles can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Maximum miles}} &= 1000 + 423\\&= 1423 \\\end{aligned}

The maximum number of miles the truck can be driven so that the rental cost is at most \$1000 is \boxed{1423{\text{ miles}}}.

A situation can be represented by this inequality?<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1.25x%20-%206.50%20%3E%2050" id="TexForm
DochEvi [55]

There are four different choices. Now we have to find which choice best expresses the inequality 1.25x-6.50>50

1.25x has positive sign so any statement that indicates earning like sells at the rate of 1.25 will match with expression 1.25x.

Now -6.50 has negative sign that means this quantity must be subtracted or represents loss of any kind.


Keeping above sign in mind and reading the given statementns, we see that only choice "a" first the given inequality.


Hence final answer is a).

Answer:

A is correct Please brainliest me

Thus, also saying that it is equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression stated- (3m+1-m)

It also states to give a equal amount

What is equalevent expression?- Equivalent expression are those expression  that looks different but are same.

For example, 2+2 is 4 and 1 plus 3 is 4

it is different expression but the same answer.

The Expression- 3m+1-m

Simplify. How?- By adding LIKE terms.

Here- 3m+ 1 - m = (3-1) m + 1

see the same.

To conclude, 3-1) m + 1  = 2m + 1

If you’d wanna write in another way, it would be 2m + 1 can be written as m + m + 2 - 1

so a is correct
