Let y = total charge for a car rental and x = miles driven
Proxy car equation: y = 0.32x + 18
YourPal equation: y = 0.36x + 12

Set equations right sides equal to each other... meaning their cost, y, are equal
0.32x + 18 = 0.36x + 12
18 = 0.04x + 12  (subtract 0.32x from both sides of the equation)
6 = 0.04x            (subtract 12 from both sides of the equation)
150 = x               (divide both sides of the equation by 0.04)

Answer:

2z + 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Add like terms like below:

(32 - 4) + (2z + 5) = 28 + 2z + 5

Combine like terms again:

(28 + 5) + 2z = 33 + 2z or 2z + 33

Which collection of three side lengths will not form a triangle
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Any collection of lengths (a, b, c) which do not satisfy the triangle inequalities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any collection (a, b, c) which do not satisfy the triangle inequalities. The inequalities:

a + b > c

b + c > a

a + c > b

You will need to test all of your options on the three inequalities above. If any one of the three fails, the collection won't work.

Can you solve this? I need help. I don't understand.
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

2 sqrt(5) OR 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to know Pythagorean theorem to solve this question.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

To use this theorem you have to have a right triangle. There are two right triangles in your image. The lower (larger) one has two sides labeled, so you can use Pythagorean thm to find the third side. There's a short cut, bc some right triangles have easy-to-memorize lengths of the sides. 3-4-5 is one of these number sets. A multiple of this is 6-8-10. We could've solved:

b^2 + 8^2 = 10^2

But it would've come out the same. The unlabeled side is 6.

We can use the 6 and the 4 on the smaller right triangle and use the Pythagorean thm again to solve for x.

4^2 + x^2 = 6^2

16 + x^2 = 36 subtract 16 from both sides.

x^2 = 20

Take the square root of both sides.

sqrt (x^2) = sqrt 20

x = 2 sqrt(5) which is approximately 4.472.

2 sqrt(5) is an exact answer if that is what they are asking for. 4.472 is an approximation to the nearest thousandth. It would be 4.47 to the nearest hundredth or 4.5 to the nearest tenth.
