Answer:

  • 300 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

  • y- the amount of charge,
  • x - the number of miles

The equations as per question are below

<u>Crazy Curly's</u>

  • y = 0.3x + 20

<u>Bill's Beauties</u>

  • y = 0.2x + 50

Solve the system by substitution

  • 0.3x + 20 = 0.2x + 50
  • 0.3x - 0.2x = 50 - 20
  • 0.1x = 30
  • x = 30/0.1
  • x = 300

Liula [17]

Answer:

2/5 or 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

10 students like building snowmen but do not like skiing

so students who like both building snowman and skiing = 60 - 10 = 50

Total number of students who does not like building snowman and also does not like skiing = 80 - 60 = 20

Therefore, the probability that  a student who does not like building snowmen also does not like skiing = 20/50 = 0.4

Select the correct answer.

You use the FOIL method, and how you do this is -

(x - 7) (x + 8)

Multiply the first x by both numbers in the second factor. Which means, you multiply x by x and 8, the two in (x + 8).

With this, you get -
x^2 + 8x

Then do the same thing with -7.

-7x - 56

Then combine the two.
x^2 + 8x - 7x - 56

Combine like terms.

x^2 + x - 56

So now, 7 x 8 is 56
And -7 + 8 would be 1. And that is the value of “x” which is b in the form a^2x + bx + c.

Now with this, you take those two numbers and make the factors =
(x + 8) (x - 7)

Then you set these equal to 0.

x + 8 = 0

Subtract the 8 from both sides.

x = -8

————

x - 7 = 0

Add the 7 on both sides.

x = 7
