X axes are supposed to be positive and the y is negative.
Answer:
7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
let the total charges be y and the number of hours be x
Company A charges
$60 reservation fee plus another $15 per hour.
so
y=60+15x----------1
Company B charges
$25 reservation fee plus another $20 per hour
y=25+20x------------2
Step two:
equate the 2 expressions above we have
60+15x=25+20x
collect like terms
60-25=20x-15x
35=5x
divide both sides by 5
x= 35/5
x= 7 hours
You need to estimate the square root of 200 ft². Rewrite 200 as 2 x 100, then square root of (2*100) is:
10*sqrt(2). The sqrt(2) = 1.414, so the length of each side of the square will be 10*1.414 = 14.14 ft or about 14 ft.
7x-4=3x+ 8
-3x of both sides 4x-4=8
plus 4 to both sides 4x=12
12 divide by 4 = 3
