Answer:

The indifference point is 20 tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First, we need to establish the total cost formulas for each store:</u>

<u></u>

Store 1:

Total cost= 10 + 0.99*x

Store 2:

Total cost= 1.49*x

x= number of tiles

<u>Now, we equal both formulas and isolate x:</u>

10 + 0.99x = 1.49x

10= 0.5x

10/0.5=x

20=x

The indifference point is 20 tiles.

Veronica traveled 562 miles to Venice, Florida. She drove 85 miles every day. On the last day of her trip, she only drove 52 mil
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

562 = 85x +52

x is the number of days

Veronica traveled for 7 days

Step-by-step explanation:

562 = 85x + 52

510 = 85x Subtract 52 on both sides

6 = x Divide by 85 to isolate x

Even though Veronica only had to drive 52 miles on the last day of her trip, it still counts as a day of driving. Hence, she traveled 7 days in total.

For each of the solutions of the equations find two consecutive integers between which the solution is located.
adoni [48]

Using squares of integers numbers, it is found that the solution of the equation is located between the integers x = 1 and x = 2.

The equation given is:

x^2 = 3

The solution of the equation given is:

x = \sqrt{3}

The squares of the integers numbers until the square root of 3 are:

1^2 = 1

2^2 = 4

Since 1 < 3 < 4, the square root of 3, which is the solution to the equation, is located between the integers x = 1 and x = 2.
