The equation that we can create from this situation is:

i = (190 – 5 x) * (29 + x)

where i is the income and x is the increase in daily rate

Expanding the equation:

i = 5510 + 190x – 145x - 5x^2

i = -5x^2 + 45x + 5510

Taking the 1st derivative:

di/dx = -10x +45

Set to zero to get the maxima:

-10x + 45 = 0

x = 4.5

 

So the cars should be rented at:

29 + x = 33.5 dollars per day

 

The maximum income is:

i = (190 – 5*4.5) * (33.5)

i = 5,611.25 dollars

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

AD is Congruent to BC and it's given, (given just means that it was already said or stated, and you don't need to do the work to find it) Angle DAC would be congruent to angle BAC (if that doesn't work, rearrange them to look like angle CAB). AC would be congruent to DB. Triangle ADC would be congruent to triangle BCD by (since i don't know exactly which way the letters are arranged is would either be SAS or SSA) and that's because you know two of the sides are congruent to each other and one angle.

I tried hard to sketch out what the shape looked like based on the information given, and that's because I need a visual of what the shape looks like. Sorry, this took so long to answer.
