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.

An air balloon begins it's decent to the ground at 1000 ft above the ground and falls at a rate of 50 ft per minute. Select all
Radda [10]

Answer:

The correct options are 3, 4 and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that an air balloon begins it's decent to the ground at 1000 ft above the ground and falls at a rate of 50 ft per minute.

It means the initial height of air balloon is 1000. So, the y-intercept is (0,1000).

The ball falls at a rate of 50 ft per minute. So, the rate of change is

m=-50

The height of balloon is defined as

h(x)=-50x+1000                      [\because y=mx+b]

Where, x is time in minutes.

The balloon will reach the ground when h(x)=0

0=-50x+1000

50x=1000

x=20

Therefore the options 3, 4 and 5 are correct.
