Have a nice day!
Answer:
An equation for each situation, in terms of x
A = 35 + 3x
B = 80 + 2x
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B is 0 to 44.9 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A represent the amount Company A would charge if Piper drives x miles
Let B represent the amount Company B would charge if Piper drives x miles.
Company A charges an initial fee of $35 for the rental plus $3 per mile driven.
A= $35 + $3 × x
A = 35 + 3x
Company B charges an initial fee of $80 for the rental plus $2 per mile driven.
B = $80 + $2 × x
B = 80 + 2x
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B.
= A < B
35 + 3x < 80 + 2x
3x - 2x < 80 - 35
x < 45 miles
That is: any number of miles driven below 45 miles makes Company A cheaper than Company B
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B is 0 to 44.9 miles.
A.) 0.35x + 42 ≤ 70
She wants the truck for one day, which will cost $45. We don't know how far the truck is traveling so that is the variable. She cannot spend more than $70, since that is her budget.
b.) Solve for x using the above equation:
0.35x + 42 ≤ 70
0.35x ≤ 28
x ≤ 80
Judy can drive 80 miles
The answer you are looking for is A. 7.00. The cost of the item should be $6.00 as the tax should be $0.48. Making the total cost of the item $6.48.
Looks to me like y= x + 1
