Answer:

240 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Charges offered by Prestige car rentals for renting a midsize vehicle:

Fixed charges = $47

Per mile charges for renting a midsize vehicle = $0.07

Charges offered by Gateway Auto for renting a midsize vehicle:

Fixed charges = $35

Per mile charges for renting a midsize vehicle = $0.12

To find:

Number of miles for which both the companies charge the same price?

Solution:

Let the number of miles for which both the companies will charge the same price = x miles

Charges for one mile by Prestige car rentals = $0.07

Charges for x miles by Prestige car rentals = $0.07x

Total charges by Prestige Car rentals = $47 + $0.07x

Charges for one mile by Gateway Auto = $0.12

Charges for x miles by Gateway Auto = $0.12x

Total charges by Gateway Auto = $35 + $0.12x

As per question statement, the charges are same:

\$47 + \$0.07x = \$35 + \$0.12x\\\Rightarrow 12=0.05x\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1200}{5}\\\Rightarrow \bold{x=240\ miles}

22. Draw Conclusions lf two angles are complementary, each angle is called
stiks02 [169]
A. A complementary angle is an angle that, with another angle, adds up to 360°. If m∡A = 77°, its complementary angle must be 283° because 360-77=283.

b. If two different angles are complementary to the same angle, they must have the same measure, because only one number can add with the one number to get the same answer.

Hope this helps!
