What is the value of the expression below 476 \17

The cost of a car rental is $25 per day plus 22 per mile. You are on a daily budget of $90. Write and solve an inequality to f

Answer: You can drive, at most, 2.95 miles per day.

x ≤ 2.95

Step-by-step explanation:

In a single day, you can spend at most $90

Then if C represents the cost of renting the car, then we will have the inequality:

C ≤ $90

Now let's find the equation for C.

We know that we have a fixed cost of $25 plus $22 per mile, then if you drive x miles, the total cost will be $25 plus x times $22, or:

C = $25 + x*$22.

We can now replace that in the inequality:

$25 + x*$22 ≤ $90

Now let's isolate the variable x

x*$22 ≤ $90 - $25

x*$22 ≤ $65

x ≤ $65/$22 = 2.95

x ≤ 2.95

You can drive at most, 2.95 miles per day.

To find other inequalities with the same solution we can start with the solution:

x ≤ 2.95

Now let's multiply both sides by a number (the units of the number can be dollars, in that way we can make a similar problem)

Let's multiply both sides by $10:

x*$10 ≤ 2.95*$10 = $29.5

x*$10 ≤ $29.5

Now let's add the same number in both sides, for example, $5.

x*$10 + $5 ≤ $29.5 + $5 = $34.5

x*$10 + $5 ≤ $34.5

We could write this problem as:

"To rent a cab in your city, you have an initial cost of $5, plus $10 for each mile driven. How many miles could you drive if at most you can spend $34.50?"

You could be more creative with the problem, but this is the way in which you can craft problems of this type when you already know the solution.

Area of semi circle: you know the radius is 5. 5^2 * pi = 25pi/2 = 12.5pi
For triangle: bh/2 = (10 * 10)/2 = 50
Add them together: 12.5pi + 50
12.5pi = 39.25
39.25 + 50 = 89.25
It’s closest to D

If the given values in a right triangle are cos A =

Vlad1618 [11]

See the picture attached to better understand the problem

we know that
in the right triangle ABC
cos A=AC/AB
cos A=1/3
so
1/3=AC/AB----->AB=3*AC-----> square----> AB²=9*AC²----> equation 1

applying the Pythagoras Theorem
BC²+AC²=AB²-----> 2²+AC²=AB²---> 4+AC²=AB²----> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2
4+AC²=9*AC²----> 8*AC²=4----> AC²=1/2----> AC=√2/2
so
AB²=9*AC²----> AB²=9*(√2/2)²----> AB=(3√2)/2

the answer is
the hypotenuse is (3√2)/2
