Answer:

The amount of the fee for the truck is $20 and cost per mile is $1.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

If they pay a fee x dollars for the truck and y dollars per mile they drive.

Carrie drives 150 miles and pays $215.

Her fee= $x for the truck + 150 X y =215

x+150y=215...(I)

Similarly, Dave drives 120 miles and pays $176

His fee =$x for the truck + 120 X y = 176

x+120y=176....(ii)

To determine the values of x and y, we solve Equations I and II simultaneously.

x+150y=215...(I)

x+120y=176....(ii)

Using elimination method (Subtracting equation II from I)

30y=39

y=1.3

Substitute y=1.3 into (I) to get x.

x+150y=215...(I)

x+(150X1.3)=215

x+195=215

x=215-195=20

Since x=20, y=1.3, The amount of the fee for the truck is $20 and cost per mile is $1.3.

The variables y and x^2 are directly
choli [55]

Answer:

y = \frac{20}{21} x²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y and x² are directly proportional then the equation relating them is

y = kx² ← k is the constant of proportion

When x = 2

y = k × 2² = 4k

When x = 5

y = k × 5² = 25k

Then

25k - 4k = 20 ( difference between values is 20 )

21k = 20 ( divide both sides by 21 )

k = \frac{20}{21}

y = \frac{20}{21} x² ← equation of proportion
