Answer:5,600 - 3,500 = 2,100

2,100 is what percent of 3,500?

2,100 = X*3,500

X = 2,100 / 3,500

X = .60 or 60%

An average of 15% increase per year.

A local company rents a moving truck for $750 plus $0.59 per mile driven over 1000 mi. What is the maximum number of miles the t

Katen [24]

The maximum number of miles the truck can be driven so that the rental cost is at most $\$1000$ is $\boxed{1423{\text{ miles}}}.$

Further explanation:

Given:

A local company rents a moving truck for $\$ 750.$

Rent per mile is $\$ 0.59$ if the truck moves more than 1000 miles.

Explanation:

The rental cost of the truck is $\$ 750$ if he drove less than 1000 miles.

${\text{Cost}} = \$ 750{\text{ }}x \leqslant 1000$

The rental cost of the truck can be expressed as follows,

${\text{Cost}} = 750 + 0.59x{\text{ }}x > 1000$

The rental cost is at most $\$1000.$

$750 + 0.59x \leqslant 1000$

The maximum number of miles can be obtained as follows,

$\begin{aligned}0.59x &\leqslant 1000 - 750\\0.59x &\leqslant 250\\x &\leqslant \frac{{250}}{{0.59}}\\x &\leqslant 423.7\\\end{aligned}$

The maximum number of miles can be obtained as follows,

$\begin{aligned}{\text{Maximum miles}} &= 1000 + 423\\&= 1423 \\\end{aligned}$

The maximum number of miles the truck can be driven so that the rental cost is at most $\$1000$ is $\boxed{1423{\text{ miles}}}.$

If you know the answer to these plz answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can readily see from the diagram, above, that the side length of the middle cube will be between 3 and 4. You want to determine to the nearest hundredth what value between 3 and 4 represents the side length of the cube whose volume is 45 units^3.

Please note: the middle cube has been mislabeled. Instead of volume = 30 units^3, the volume should be 45 units^3.

Here's the procedure:

Guess an appropriate s value. Let's try s = side length = 3.5

Cube this: (3.5 units)^3 = 42.875. Too small. Choose a larger possible side length, such as 3.7: 3.7^3 = 50.653. Too large.

Try s = 3.6: 3.6^3 = 46.66. Too large.

Choose a smaller s, one between 3.5 and 3.6: 3.55^3 = 44.73. This is the best estimate yet for s. Continue this work just a little further. Try s = 3.57. Cube it. How close is the result to 45 cubic units?
