Answer:
5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
A quick way to look at this is to compare the difference in hourly charge to the difference in 0-hour charge.
The first day, the charge is $3 more than $12 per hour.
The second day, the charge is $12 less than $15 per hour.
The difference in 0-hour charges is 3 -(-12) = 15. The difference in per-hour charges is 15 -12 = 3. The ratio of these is ...
$15/($3/h) = 5 h
The charges are the same after 5 hours.

If you write equations for the charges, they will look like ...
y1 = 15 + 12(x -1)
y2 = 3 + 15(x -1)
Equating these charges, we have ...
15 +12(x -1) = 3 + 15(x -1)
12x +3 = 15x -12 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
15 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . add 12-12x
x = 15/3 = 5 . . . . . . divide by 3
You might notice that the math here is very similar to that described in words, above.
The charges are the same after 5 hours.
Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's put this into numbers: 
x =-6
The first thing you want to do is to multiply both sides by 4:
3x=-24
Next you need to divide by 3:
x=-8
The answer is -8
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Maximum can be determined by taking derivative and set it equal to zero.
Answer: x = 22
Explanation:
1) Corresponding sides and correspoding angles of congruent triangles are equal.
2) When you name two congruent triangles the order of the vertices signal which sides and angles are congruents.
That triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DEF means that these are the corresponding parts, which are congruent to each other:
- ∠A and ∠D are congruent
- ∠B and ∠ E are congruent
- ∠C and ∠F are congruent
- Segment AB and segment DE are congruent
- Segment BC and segment EF are congruent
- Segment AC and segment DF are congruent
In the figures, it is given that the segment DF measures (1/2)x - 1 and the corresponding segment AC measures 10 units.
Hence, you set this equation: (1/2)x - 1 = 10
Solving for x:
- (1/2)x = 10 + 1
- (1/2)x = 11
- x = 2(11)
- x = 22 ← answer
