6 points Emily’s family needs to rent a moving truck to move their belongings to a different house. The rental cost for Trucks-A

Alexxx [7]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Equation to represent the daily rental cost for each type of truck can be written as follows:

Daily rental cost for Trucks-A-Lot = 42 + 0.72m

Daily rental cost for Move-in-Truckers = 70 + 0.12m

Where, m = Emily's mileage

To determine the number of miles for which the truck cost the same amount, set both equations equal to each other and solve for m.

$42 + 0.72m = 70 + 0.12m$

Collect like terms

$0.72m - 0.12m = 70 - 42$

$0.6m = 28$

Divide both sides by 0.6

$\frac{0.6m}{0.6} = \frac{28}{0.6}$

$m = 46.7$

At approximately 47 miles, both trucks would cost the same amount.

Check:

Daily rental cost for Trucks-A-Lot = 42 + 0.72m

Plug in the value of x = 47

= 42 + 0.72(47) = $75.84 ≈ $76

Daily rental cost for Move-in-Truckers = 70 + 0.12m

Plug in the value of x = 47

= 70 + 0.12(47) = $75.64 ≈ $76

Find an expression for the nth term ( tn ) in each of the following sequences:

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The expression for the nth term is Tn = 8n -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to find an expression for the nth term of the sequence.

Mathematically, the nth term of an arithmetic sequence can be expressed as;

Tn = a + (n-1)d

for T2, the equation is

a + d = 9

for T4, the equation is

a + 3d = 25

we can substitute the equation of T2 into T4 but we first need to rewrite T4

a + d + 2d = 25

9 + 2d = 25

2d = 25 -9

2d = 16

d = 16/2

d = 8

now since a + d = 9

a = 9-d

a = 9-8

a = 1

So the expression for the nth term would be;

1 + (n-1)8

1 + 8n - 8

= 8n -8+1

= 8n -7

Find the slope of the line that passes through the given points.<br> (-5,6) and (2,6)

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your slope would be 0. To find the slope of a line given two points, you find the change in y over the change in x.

In this case, the change in y was 6 - 6 which equals 0.

The change in x was -5 - 2 which was -7.

Since your numerator is 0, 0 divided by anything is automatically equal to 0 no matter what the denominator is.

Therefore, your answer would be 0.

I hope this helped :)
