Questions (contd)

(a) For what amount of driving do the two plans cost the same?

(b) What is the cost when the two plans cost the same?

Answer:

(a) 100 miles

(b) $65

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Plan 1:

Initial\ Fee = \$57

Additional = \$0.08 per mile

Plan 2:

Initial\ Fee = \$50

Additional = \$0.10 per mile

Solving (a): Number of miles when both plans are equal

Represent the distance with x and the cost with y

So:

Plan 1:

y = 57 + 0.08 * x

Plan 2:

y = 50 + 0.10 * x

To solve (a), we equate both plans together; i.e.

y = y

57 + 0.08x = 50 + 0.10x

Collect Like Terms

0.08x - 0.10x= 50 - 57

-0.02x= -2

Solve for x

x = -2/-0.02

x = 100

Hence, 100 mile would cost both plans the same

Solving (b): Cost when both plans are the same:

In this case, we simply substitute 100 for x in any of the y equation.

y = 57 + 0.08 * x

y = 57 + 0.08 * 100

y = 57 + 8

y = 65

<em>Hence, the amount is $65</em>

On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C is shown. Point A is at (negative 1, 1), point B is at (3, 2), and points C is at (negativ
oksian1 [2.3K]

The corresponding height of the triangle is 1.6 units

The formula for calculating the area of a triangle is expressed as:

A=\frac{1}{2} bh

  • b is the base of the triangle
  • h is the height of the triangle

Given the coordinates of the base BC of the triangle given as B(3, 2), and C(-1,-1). Using the distance formula:

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\BC= \sqrt{(-1-2)^2+(-1-3)^2}\\BC=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}\\BC=\sqrt{25}\\BC=5units

The area of the triangle passing through the coordinate points A(-1, 1), B(3,2), and C(-1, -1) is expressed as:

A=\frac{1}{2}[x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)]\\

Substituting the coordinate points:

A=\frac{1}{2}[(-1)(2-(-1))+3(-1-1)+-1(1-2)]\\A=\frac{1}{2}[(-1)(3)+3(-2)+-1(-1)]\\A=\frac{1}{2}[-3-6+1]\\A=\frac{1}{2} (-8)\\|A| =4 units^2

Recall that:

A = 0.5bh\\h=\frac{A}{0.5b}\\h=\frac{4}{0.5(5)}\\h=\frac{4}{2.5}\\h=   1.6 units

Hence the corresponding height of the triangle is 1.6 units
