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

A scale drawing of a school bus has a scale of 1/2 inch to 5feet. If the length of the school bus is 4 1/2 inches on the scale d
Sedaia [141]
Answer: actual length = 45 ft

Explanation:

Scale drawn:

1/2 inch = 5ft

Meaning that if the drawing scale is 0.5 inch then the actual bus would be 5ft.

If the length of the drawn school bus is 4 1/2 inches. We can write:

1/2 = 5
4 1/2 = x

=> x = (5 x 4 1/2)/1/2
Or x = (5 x 4.5)/0.5
x = 22.5/0.5
x = 45

Therefore the actual length of the bus is 45 ft

Prime numbers are those that cannot be divided by another number (other than themselves and 1). In other words, prime numbers have factors of themselves and 1.

For example, 3 is a prime number because its only factors are 3 and 1.

6 is not a prime number because it can be factored to 3*2.

Therefore, the correct answer is c. 3,11,23,31
