The number of days for both Companies to have the same total amount is

6.4 days

<h3>Word Problem leading to Algebraic expression</h3>

 

Given Data

  • Let the total payment be y
  • Let the number of days be x

Company A

  • Charges per day = $57
  • Flat fee = $32

y = 57x+ 32 -----------------1

Company B

  • Charges per day = $62
  • Flat fee = $0

y = 62x + 0-----------------2

Equating 1 and 2 we have

57x+ 32 = 62x+ 0

Solving for x we have

62x-57x = 32

5x = 32

Divide both sides by 5

x = 32/5

x = 6.4 days

Sole m-2/12=1/6<br> a.4<br> b.1<br> c.0<br> d.2
riadik2000 [5.3K]
The answer would be A. 4
Here’s what I would do.
Multiply both sides by 12 so u can get m- 2 by itself.
m-2= 2
How’d I get the two? It comes from when I multiplied 12 on both sides. 12/6= 2
Now ur equation should be
m-2=2
Do the opposite and add two to both sides to get the variable by itself.
m=4

Hope this helps :)))

What is the measure for the following ∠?<br> m∠BOA<br><br> 20<br> 40<br> 60
kaheart [24]

Hello!

First, find angle BOA on the protractor. To do this, look for point B, point O, and point A.

Now, we see some markings that mark what degree point B and point A are at. Point B is marked at 60 degrees, and Point A 40 degrees.

Now, all that's left to do, is subtract the two measurements.

60 degrees - 40 degrees = 20 degrees

Therefore, your answer is 20.

Hope this helps!

Calculate the specific heat of a metal (in calories/gram-degree C) from the following data. A container made of the metal has a
Arisa [49]

Answer:

<h2>The specific heat of the metal is 0.274951 calories/gram-degree C.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the specific heat of the container is x calories/gram-degree C.

The container and water gains (18 - 15) = 3 degrees C.

Hence, the transfer of heat is 3(18.1\times1000\times1) + 3(3.77x\times1000).

The metal, which is dropped in the water, losses (164 - 18)= 144 degrees C.

Hence, the transfer of heat is 144\times 1.45\times1000x.

As per the given conditions,

3(18.1\times1000) + 3(3.77x\times1000) = 144\times1.45\times1000x\\54.3 + 11.31x = 208.8x\\197.49x = 54.3\\x = 0.274951.
