Allushta [10]

Answer:

115 = 15 x + 40

the charge is $5 dollars per mile

Step-by-step explanation:

He truck is rented at $40 per day plus they charge per mile of use the truck travel 15 miles in one day and the total charge was 115

LEt x  be  the charge in dollars per hour

Initial charge is 40 and 15 miles travelled  in one day

total charge = 15x + 40

Given : total charge is 115

So the equation becomes

115 = 15 x + 40

Now we solve for x

Subtract 40 from both sides

75= 15 x

Divide both sides by 15

x= 5

so , the charge is $5 dollars per mile

Write out the following proportions in words. a. 7 :28 = 2 : 8 b. 3⁄1 = 18⁄6 c. 9 : 72 = 2 : 16 d. 81⁄9 = 45⁄5
Lerok [7]
1) Proportion a.

7 : 28 = 2 : 8

That means that the ratio 7 / 28 is equal to the ratio 2 : 8. 

You can verify the equality by simplifying to the simplest form:

     7 : 28 = 1 / 4 simplest form
     2 : 8 = 1 / 4 simplest form, then the proportion is right.

In words that is 7 is to 28 as 1 is to 4 ← answer


2) Proportion b.<span>. 3⁄1 = 18⁄6
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>In words: 3 is to q as 18 is to 6 ← answer
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>You can verify the proportion by simplifiying the second fraction:
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>     18 / 6 = [18 / 6] / [ 6 / 6] = 3 / 1
</span><span>

</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>In words: 9 is to 72 as 2 is to 16 ← answer

</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>     9 / 72 = 1 / 8

</span><span>
</span><span>4) Proportion d. 81⁄9 = 45⁄5</span>

In words: 81 is to 9 as 45 is to 5 ← answer


Proove it: 
      81 / 9 = 9
      45 / 9 = 9

David's dinner cost $24. He wants to leave a 20% tip. The tax rate is 8%. What is the total he will pay? (not $31.10)
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

$30.72

Step-by-step explanation:

You were right with your answer, the teacher is probably just wanting you to tip on the subtotal (before tax) instead of the total total. Instead of doing total+tax+tip, we're going to figure out the tax and tip separately and then add it all together.

<u>Tipping on the subtotal (what your teacher wanted)</u>

20% of $24 = $4.80

8% of $24 = $1.92

$24+$4.80+$1.92=$30.72

<u>Tipping on the total (what you did)</u>

8% of $24 is $1.92

New total is $25.92

20% of $25.92 is $5.18

$25.92 + $5.18 = $31.10
