I think multiplication but I’m not sure sorry
Hi there!
The word "of" is the same thing as a multiplication sign.
1)
20% = 0.2
0.2 × 20 = 4
2)
? × 30 = 15
divide each side of the equation by 30
? = 0.5
0.5 = 50%
3)
50% = 0.5
0.5 × ? = 50
divide each side of the equation by 0.5
? = 100
There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
You must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Two payment options to rent a car
Let "x" be the number of miles driven in one day
<em><u>You can pay $20 a day plus 25¢ a mile (Option A)</u></em>
25 cents is equal to 0.25 dollars
OPTION A : 20 + 0.25x
<em><u>You pay $10 a day plus 50¢ a mile (Option B)</u></em>
50 cents equal to 0.50 dollars
Option B: 10 + 0.50x
<em><u>For what amount of daily miles will option A be the cheaper plan ?</u></em>
For option A to be cheaper, Option A must be less than option B
Option A < Option B

Solve the inequality
Add -0.50x on both sides

Add - 20 on both sides,



Divide both sides by 0.25

Thus you must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan
The first incorrect is the second step so choice B. ,bc. the exponents need assuming not multiply

Step-by-step explanation:
-4x+1+6-(-9x)
-4x+7-(-9x)
