Answer:

the number of miles is 160

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is given below:

Let us assume the miles be x

For company A

y = $100 + $0.40x

And, for company B

y = $20 + $0.90x

In order to find out the number of miles, the rental cost of the company A should be less than the company B rental cost

SO,

$20 + $0.90x > $100 + $0.40x

Subtract $20 from both sides

0.90x > 80 + 0.40x

Now subtract 0.40x from both sides

0.50x >80

x>160

So the number of miles is 160

If four times the sum of a number and 3 is divided by 2, the quotient is 0: find the number
AveGali [126]

The other number is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; First we develop formulae for the given information. A number is added with 3 and the resulting sum is multiplied by 4. This number is then divided by 2 and the quotient is 0. Assume the unknown number is x, then the given information is as follows

The quotient of \frac{4(x+3)}{2} is 0. So \frac{4(x+3)}{2} = 0.

Step 2; Now we solve the above equation. The denominator is taken to the RHS and the RHS remains zero.

\frac{4(x+3)}{2} = 0, 4(x+3)= 0, 4x+ 12 = 0, 4x = -12, x = \frac{-12}{4} = -3.

So the other number is -3.

tell whether the angles are adjacent or vertical then find the value of x. can someone help me please i need all the answers
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

3. adjacent; 49
4. adjacent; 71

5. verticle; 41

6. adjacent; 14

Step-by-step explanation:

ok basically if the angles are next to each other, then they're adjacent and if they're across from eachother they're verticle.

to find 3:

set both equations equal to each other and solve because verticle angles are equal

to find 4:

add the 2 equations together and set it equal to 180 because adjacent angles add up to equal either a complementary angle or supplementary depending on the problem

Find the product of (3.7 • 10^4) and 2.
Serga [27]

Answer:

7.4 · 10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

For scientific notation, multiplication is pretty simple.

In this case, you would only multiply the "regular" number by 2.

(3.7 · 2) · 10^4

= 7.4 · 10^4

However, if it were asking about multiplying the number with something else in scientific notation, in addition to what we did above, you'd add together the exponents.

I hope this helped!
