Answer: 2 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The monkeys eat 3 ²/₃ buckets of bananas each day. Convert this to an improper fraction:

= 3²/₃ = 11/3 buckets per day

The zookeeper bought 7¹/₃ which is:

= 22/3 buckets

To find out the number of days the bananas will last, divide the buckets bought by the buckets eaten per day:

= 22/3 ÷ 11/3

= 22/3 * 3/11

= 66/33

= 2 days

<em>If dividing fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. </em>

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

(a)\ c(x) = 39 + 0.09 x

(b)\ \$53.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base\ Charge = \$39

Rate = 0.09 per mile

Solving (a): Linear Equation

The total charges (c(x)) is: the base charge + the rate * number of miles (x).

So, we have:

c(x)= 39 + 0.09 * x

c(x) = 39 + 0.09 x

Solving (b): Cost of rent, if miles = 160

This implies that x = 160

So, we have:

c(x) = 39 + 0.09 x

c(160) = 39 + 0.09 *160

c(160) = 39 + 14.4

c(160) = 53.4
