x = the number of miles
y = the total cost
Company A:
0.60x + 60 = y [Company A charges $60 plus $0.60 per mile(x)]
Company B:
0.90x + 30 = y [Company B charges $30 plus $0.90 per mile(x)]
To find the number of miles where the costs for both companies are the same, you can set the equations equal to each other as the costs(y) are the same:
y = y Substitute the equations into "y" (substitute (0.60x + 60) and (0.90x + 30) into "y" since y = 0.60x + 60 and y = 0.90x + 30)
0.60x + 60 = 0.90x + 30 To find x, isolate/get the variable "x" by itself. Subtract 30 on both sides
0.60x + 60 - 30 = 0.90x + 30 - 30
0.60x + 30 = 0.90x Subtract 0.60x on both sides to get "x" on one side of the equation
0.60x - 0.60x + 30 = 0.90x - 0.60x
30 = 0.30x Divide 0.30 on both sides to get "x" by itself
100 = x 100 miles
(if you need to find out the cost where both companies cost the same, you can substitute/plug in the value of x into one of the equations.)
0.60x + 60 = y Plug in 100 into "x" since x = 100
0.60(100) + 60 = y
120 = y At 100 miles, both companies cost $120
Answer:
2d
Step-by-step explanation:
Im guessing 2 is also being added. Well basically you add 8 2 and negative 10, which gives you zero, and the value that is left from that is 2d, so its 2d
There is missing information required in order to find the solution. I need the satellite speed
Answer:
A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 that cannot be formed by multiplying two smaller natural numbers.
