Answer:

$25

Step-by-step explanation:

Derive an equation to represent the cost of using each ride.

Sal's Car Rides:

Using 2 pairs of values from the table, (0, 40) and (20, 80), find the slope, m (fee per mile).

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{80 - 40}{20 - 0} = \frac{40}{20} = 2

The y-intercept, b, is the one-time fee for fuel. This is the value of the cost ($) when number of miles traveled is 0.

Thus, b = 40.

Substitute m = 2, and b = 40 into y = mx + b.

Equation for the total cost for Sal's Car Rides would be:

y = 2x + 40.

Find the total cost to be charged if a customer requires the a car service for 80 miles if he chooses Sal's Car Rides.

Simply substitute x = 80 in y = 2x + 40.

y = 2(80) + 40 = 200

The customer would pay $200.

Ray's Limo:

The equation that represents the total cost (y) to be charged for number of miles (x), given that $2.50 is charged per mile plus a one-time fee of $25 for fuel, would be:

y = 2.5x + 25.

If a customer uses Ray's Limo services for 80 miles, the cost charged would be:

Substitute x = 80 in y = 2.5x + 25.

Thus:

y = 2.5(80) + 25 = 225.

The fee the customer would pay = $225 for using Ray's Limo services.

Therefore, if the customer takes Sal's Car Rides instead of Ray's Limo, he would save, $225 - $200 = $25.

The customer would save $25.

Answer:

2x+12=24

first you subtract 12 from both sides

2x+12=24

-12. -12

The 12-12 should cancel itself, the rest of the equation you bring down to get

2x=12 (because 24-12=12)


Now you have 2x=12.
you then divide 2x by both sides.

2x=12

/2x=/2x

The 2x/2x cancels itself out so you then solve for 12/2x.

For this you just divide 12/2 which is 6!

x= 6 is your final answer.
to check this equation you can plug your number back into x to see if it is true! 2(6)+12=24.
6 times 2 is 12 and 12+12 is 24 so your answer (6) is true!


hope this helps! :D
