After that incident, the Civil defense team decided to buy new trucks with ladders higher than 100 feet. They found 2 different

trucks with same height of ladders. The first truck costs $145,000 and will cost $0.31 per mile traveled based on the current gas prices. The second truck will cost $160,000 but gets better gas mileage, costing $0.27 per mile. They need to decide which truck is the best deal.

Answer:

the first truck

Step-by-step explanation:

the cost difference between the first truck and the second truck = $160,000-$145,000 = $15,000

the difference of gas cost between the first truck and the second truck = $0.31 - $0.26= $0.05 per mile.

so,

I think, this is a very significant number of truck cost compared with gas cost

for the best deal, the first truck is the best choice.

Answer:

(f\cdot g)(x)=2x^2+10x+12

(f-g)(x)=-x-1

(f+g)(1)=10

Step-by-step explanation:

\tt f(x)=x+3

\tt g(x)=2x+4

(f\cdot g)(x)=f(x)\cdot g(x)=(x+3)(2x+4)=2x^2+4x+6x+12

=2x^2+10x+12

(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)=x+3-(2x+4)=x+3-2x-4

=-x-1

(f+g)(1)=f(1)+g(1)=1+3+2(1)+4

=4+2+4=10
