Answer:

179 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write an equation to represent the cost of the rental, and then you can solve the equation to find the number of hours.

Let m = number of minutes.

The total cost is the cost per minute plus the fee to start.

1 minute costs $0.12.

2 minutes cost $0.12 * 2

x minutes cost $0.12 * x, or simply 0.12x.

The fee to start is $2, so the total to rent for m minutes is 0.12m + 2.

The equation

c = 0.12m + 2

gives you the cost, c, for a rental of m minutes.

We are told the total cost was $23.48. Replace c with 23.48, and solve for m, the number of minutes.

23.48 = 0.12m + 2

Switch sides.

0.12m + 2 = 23.48

Subtract 2 from both sides.

0.12m = 21.48

Divide both sides by 0.12

m = 21.48/0.12

m = 179

Elza [17]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 100 lbs on Earth is 16.6 lbs on the moon.

a. The independent variable is weight. The gravity of the Moon and the gravity of the Earth are constant. Weight can change, but gravity is a constant.

b. An equation that relates the weight of someone on the Moon who travels to the Earth:

100 / 16.6 = 6.02. Take the Moon weight and multiply by 6.02:

Moon Weight * 6.02 = Earth Weight.

Proof:

16.6 * 6.024 = 99.99 - approximately 100 lbs Earth weight.

c. A 185 lb astronaut on Earth would weigh:

16.6 / 100 = .166. Take the Earth weight and multiply by .166:

185 * .166 = 30 lbs on the Moon.

d. A person who weighs 50 lbs on the Moon:

50 * 6.024 = 301.2 lbs on Earth.

Hope this helps! Have a good day and year! :)

How many times does the graph of the function below interect or touch the x-axis? y=-2x^2+3x+5
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Two times at (-1,0) and (2.5,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

When the graph intersects or touches x-axis, y is equal to 0

so y = -2x^2 + 3x + 5

=> 0 = -2x^2 + 3x + 5

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is equal to x = [-b +/-√(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a

so a = -2

    b = 3

    c = 5

substitute in the formula

x = [-3 +/- √(3^2 - 4x-2x5)]/2(-2)

x = [-3 +/- √(9 + 40)]/(-4)

x = [-3 +/- 7]/(-4)

x1 = (-3 + 7)/(-4) = 4/-4 = -1

x2 = (-3 - 7)/(-4) = -10/-4 = 5/2 = 2.5

so the graph has two x-intercepts (-1,0) and (2.5,0), therefore it intersects x-axis two times

Find the x-and y-intercepts of the graph of each equation<br>8. x+y=9​
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x- intercept let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x

x + 0 = 9

x = 9 ← x- intercept ⇒ (9, 0 )

To find the y- intercept let x = 0 in the equation and solve for y

0 + y = 9

y = 9 ← y- intercept ⇒ (0, 9 )
