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

<h3>What is the increase in total cost?</h3>

The first step is to determine the relationship between the weight of apples and their total cost.

Relationship between weight and total cost = $2 / 1 = $2

Increase in total cost = $2 x 4 = $8

Determine which line is perpendicular to y = - 7/5x-2.​
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

y = 5/7 x  - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

For two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slope must be -1

The slope of the given function is -7/5

Let the slope of the required function be m

m * -7/5 = -1

7/5 m = 1

7 = 5m

m = 5/7

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line is 5/7

The required equation (using any value of the y-intercept) is expressed as;

y = 5/7 x  - 6

Note that the y-intercept value was assumed and any value can be used
