<h3>
Answer: n+15</h3>
=======================================================
Explanation:
- n = number of minutes
- cost of company X = 3n+30
- cost of company Y = 2n+15
To find out how much more company X charges, we subtract the two cost expressions
CompanyX - CompanyY = (3n+30)-(2n+15) = 3n+30-2n-15 = n+15 which is the final answer.
--------------
An example:
Let's say you talk on the phone for n = 20 minutes.
Company X would charge you 3n+30 = 3*20+30 = 90 cents
Company Y would charge you 2n+15 = 2*20+15 = 55 cents
The difference of which is 90-55 = 35 cents.
If you plugged n = 20 into the n+15 expression we got, then n+15 = 20+15 = 35 matches up with the previous 35 cents.
This example helps confirm the answer. I'll let you try out other examples.
RhTh + RsTs = 180 (Rh = 70, Rs=20 , Th = Ts)
70Th + 20Th = 180
90 Th = 180
Th = 2
since Th = Ts,
thus, Ts = 2
.444444 divided by 3/8 = 0.01666666666
Answer:
15 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Fernell's speed
mph
Dabney's speed
mph
Denote:
- distance covered by Fernell
- distance covered by Dabney
- Fernell's time
- Dabney's time
1. If Fernell drove for 3 hours longer than Dabney, then his time is 3 hours more than Dabney's time and

2. If Fernell covered 18 miles less than Dabney, then

Use formula 

Subtract from the first equation the second equation and equate it to 18:
