I don’t know it the last number is 8500 but I got 8404 it’s that
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Given

per mile
Solving (a): Linear Equation
The total charges (c(x)) is: the base charge + the rate * number of miles (x).
So, we have:


Solving (b): Cost of rent, if miles = 160
This implies that x = 160
So, we have:




Mid segment of triangle = 1/2 base
base = x here, so
1/2x = 15
multiply both sides by 2,
x=30
answer: x=30
You plug in x for 3 so it would be 10(3) + 2, and 10 times 3 is 30 and 30 plus 2 is 32
Because the discriminant is less than zero, there are no real solutions in the equation.
