Let no of miles be y

  • A=0.7y+70
  • B=0.8y+20

\\ \sf\longmapsto A=B

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.7y+70=0.8y+20

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.8y-0.7y=70-20

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.1y=50

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=\dfrac{50}{0.1}

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=500miles

Answer:

  • 500 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of miles is x.

<u>Then for each company we have total charge of:</u>

  • A = 0.7x + 70
  • B = 0.8x + 20

<u>Since A = B, solve for x:</u>

  • 0.7x + 70 = 0.8x + 20
  • 0.8x - 0.7x = 70 - 20
  • 0.1x = 50
  • x = 50/0.1
  • x = 500 miles

You have no idea how much it would mean to me and make my day if you helped me with this question ! :)

So to do this, you would use the formula: 

Number of favorable outcomes
________________________

Total number of outcomes.


In the first question you are asked: Probability of an even number being spun. We can see that there are 4 even numbers, which is our favorable outcome and that over the number of outcomes, which is 8, would be 4/8 = 0.5 or 50%. Therefore the answer to #1 is 0.5 as a decimal or 50% as a percent. (Do it the way the directions tell you to).

In the second question you are asked the probability to spin a number greater than 3. This does not include 3, so you have 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. That is 5 numbers. 5 numbers divided by the total number of outcomes is 5/8, which is equal to 0.625, or 62.5%. Therefore the answer to #2 is 0.625 as a decimal or 62.5% as a percent.

The third question asks for the probability that an odd number would be spun. We can see the odd numbers are: 1,3,5,7. This is 4 favorable outcomes divided by 8, the total number of outcomes. 4/8 is equal to 0.5 or 50%. Therefore the answer to #3 is 50% as a percent or 0.5 as decimal.

Hope this helps. Please rate, leave a thanks, and mark a brainliest answer. (Not necessarily mine). Thanks, it really helps!
