Answer:

22 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

A towing company charges $50 plus $4 per mile

let the number of miles be x

the expression for the charges for x miles y is given as

y= 50+4x

for y= 138

138= 50+4x

138-50= 4x

88= 4x

x= 88/4

x= 22 miles

Hence the distance is 22 miles

he two-way table shows the medal count for the top-performing countries in the 2012 Summer Olympics. A 5-column table has 5 rows
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The all-time medal table for all Olympic Games from 1896 to 2018, including Summer Olympic Games, Winter Olympic Games, and a combined total of both, is tabulated below. These Olympic medal counts do not include the 1906 Intercalated Games which are no longer recognized by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) as official Games. The IOC itself does not publish all-time tables, and publishes unofficial tables only per single Games. This table was thus compiled by adding up single entries from the IOC database.[1]

The results are attributed to the IOC country code as currently displayed by the IOC database. Usually, a single code corresponds to a single National Olympic Committee (NOC). When different codes are displayed for different years, medal counts are combined in the case of a simple change of IOC code (such as from HOL to NED for the Netherlands) or simple change of country name (such as from Ceylon to Sri Lanka). As the medals are attributed to each NOC, not all totals include medals won by athletes from that country for another NOC, such as before independence of that country. Names in italic are national entities that no longer exist. The totals of NOCs are not combined with those of their predecessors and successors.

To solve the inequality m/-7<(or equal to) 14 , what should be done to both sides?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

\large\boxed{m\geq-98}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{m}{-7}\leq14\\\\-\dfrac{m}{7}\leq14\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\\dfrac{m}{7}\geq-14\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 7}\\\\7\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\dfrac{m}{7\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\geq(7)(-14)\\\\m\geq-98

Catherine invested a principal of $1,650 in her bank account with interest rate 3.1 % How much interest did she earn in 14 years
never [62]

Answer:

$693

Step-by-step explanation:

Catherine invested a principal of $1,650 in her bank account with;

interest rate of 3.1%

How much interest did she earn in 14 years?

To find the amount accumulated in the 14 years, we use the formula:

A = P(1 + rt)

Where A is the amount accumulated, P is the principal, r is the interest rate and t is the time.

A = $1650(1 + \frac{3}{100}(14))

A = $1650 + $693 = $2343

Interest = Amount (A) - Principal (P) = $2343 - $1650 = $693
