A cab company charges $3.10 flat rate in addition to $0.85 per mile. Rex has no more than $15 to spend on a ride. Write an inequality that represents Rex's situation. How many miles can Rex travel without exceeding his limit? Round off your answer to nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of miles Rex can travel be x;

If a cab company charges $0.85 per mile, then x miles will cost $0.85x

If the flat rate rate charge is $3.10, the total price for x miles will be;

0.85x + 3.10

Since Rex has no more than $15 to spend on a ride, the inequality to represent the equation will be;

0.85x + 3.10 ≤ 15 (less than or equal to means that the total value cannot exceed $15)

Next is to solve for x

Given

0.85x + 3.10 ≤ 15

subtract 3.10 from both sides

0.85x + 3.10-3.10 ≤ 15-3.10

0.85x ≤ 15-3.10

0.85x ≤ 11.90

x ≤  11.90/0.85

x ≤ 14

This means that Rex can travel 14 miles without exceeding his limit

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]3.10 + 0.85m \leq 15[/tex]

[tex]m \leq 14.0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Flat\ Rate = \$3.10[/tex]

[tex]Addition = \$0.85[/tex] (per mile)

[tex]Maximum\ Amount = \$15[/tex]

Required

Determine the inequality that represents the scenario and solve

Let the number of miles be represented by m.

The company's charges can be calculated using:

[tex]Flat\ Rate + Additional\ Charges * m[/tex]

Substitute values

[tex]\$3.10 + \$0.85 * m[/tex]

Rex can't exceed $15 implies that the company's charges can't exceed Rex's budget.

This is expressed as:

[tex]\$3.10 + \$0.85 * m \leq \$15[/tex]

[tex]\$3.10 + \$0.85m \leq \$15[/tex]

[tex]3.10 + 0.85m \leq 15[/tex] ---- The inequality

Solving for m: Collect Like Terms

[tex]0.85m \leq 15 - 3.10[/tex]

[tex]0.85m \leq 11.9[/tex]

Divide through by 0.85

[tex]m \leq 11.9/0.85[/tex]

[tex]m \leq 14.0[/tex] ---- The solution

Question 2 (1 point) Which ordered pair is a solution to the equation below? -4x + 2y = 16 O (-3, 2) O (4, -1) (2-3)​

Answers

Answer:

A. (-3, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is to revert the equation into y = mx  + b form.

-4x + 2y = 16 turns into y = 2x+8

Now just plug in the points given to see which one matches.

(-3,2) the x is -3 so if you plug that into the equation it should get you 2 which is the y.

2 = 2(-3) + 8

2 = 2

So we know that (-3, 2) is the solution.

If you plug in the other points they wont come out equal. For example, (4,-1)

-1 = 2(4) + 8

-1 = 16

So (4,-1) cant be a solution. The same thing applies for (2, -3).

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The three figures are 480 km, 240 km, and 300 km.

b) Kenzi has driven 60 km further than Jafar.

We have,

a)

The three figures bearing B from A are:

1 cm = 200 km

This means,

AB = 2.4 cm

So,

2.4 x 200 = 480 km

And,

BC has two parts:

1.2 cm and 1.5 cm

1.2 cm x 200 km = 240 km

1.5 x 200 km = 300 km

The three figures are 480 km, 240 km, and 300 km.

Now,

Jafar distance.

= AB

= 480 km

Kenzi distance.

= BC

= 240 km + 300 km

= 540 km

The difference between the distance driven.

= 540 km - 480 km

= 60 km

This means,

Kenzi has driven 60 km further than Jafar.

Thus,

The three figures are 480 km, 240 km, and 300 km.

Kenzi has driven 60 km further than Jafar.

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the sides "d" and "f." Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

f = 10·√3/3 ≈ 5.774

d = 5·√3/3 ≈ 2.887

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The angles opposite the 90°, right angle, = 60° and 30°

The length of the leg opposite the 60° angle = 5

Therefore, by Pythagorean Theorem, we have;

f² = d² + 5²

However, by trigonometry, we have;

sin(θ) = Opposite/Hypotenuse

For the angle of the triangle, θ = 30°, we have;

sin(30°) = d/f = 0.5

∴ d = f × 0.5 = 0.5·f

Substituting the value of d in the equation given by Pythagorean Theorem, we have;

f² = (0.5·f)² + 5² = 0.25·f² + 5²

f² = 0.25·f² + 5²

f² - 0.25·f² = 5²

0.75·f² = 5²

f² = 5²/0.75 = 100/3

f = 10/√3 = 10·√3/3

f = 10·√3/3

d = f × 0.5 = 10·√3/3 × 0.5 = 5·√3/3

d = 5·√3/3.

Jonathan increased his rate of walking by 25% at halfway to his destination and therefore arrived half an hour earlier than was planned. How long did it take for Jonathan walk to his destination?O

Answers

Answer:

1.67 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original speed of Jonathan = [tex]x[/tex] units/hr

Let the original time taken by Jonathan = [tex]y[/tex] hours

Let the distance = [tex]D[/tex] units

Formula for distance is given as:

[tex]Distance = Speed \times Time[/tex]

Given that half the distance is covered by original speed.

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{D}{2} = \dfrac{x}{2}\times \dfrac{y}{2}\\\Rightarrow D = \dfrac{xy}{2} ..... (1)[/tex]

Half the distance is covered by increasing the rate by 25%.

i.e. increased speed:

[tex]\dfrac{5}{4}x\ units/hr[/tex]

Hence, Time taken:

[tex]\dfrac{y}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Distance traveled is half of the total distance:

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{D}{2} = \dfrac{5x}{4}\times (\dfrac{y}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2})\\\Rightarrow D = \dfrac{5x}{2}\times (\dfrac{y}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}) .... (2)[/tex]

Dividing (1) by (2):

[tex]\dfrac{xy\times 4}{2\times 5x(y-1)} = 1\\\Rightarrow 2y=5y-5\\\Rightarrow 3y=5\\\Rightarrow y =1.67\ hours[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

a. The correct option is C. No, because you will probably have to pay for service and insurance with either plan.

b. The correct option is A.Yes, the total cost of the car at the end of the lease is $47,400.

c. The correct option is D. Not all of the money is needed up front and you have years to decide if you want to buy the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore given as follows:

You are deciding whether to buy a car for $21,000 or to accept a lease agreement. The lease entails a $800 fee plus monthly payments of $250 for 48 months. Under the lease agreement, you are responsible for service on the car and insurance. At the end of the lease, you may purchase the car for $9000. Complete parts a through c below.

a. Should the cost of service and insurance determine which option you choose?

A. Yes, because you probably don't have to pay for services when you buy the car.

B. No, because it is cheaper to lease the car than to buy it.

C. No, because you will probably have to pay for service and insurance with either plan.

D. Yes, because you get a discount on your insurance when you lease the car.

b. Does the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement exceed the cost of purchasing the car at the outset?

A.Yes, the total cost of the car at the end of the lease is $___ (fill in the blank)

B. No, the total cost of the car at the end of the lease is $___(fill in the blank)

c. What are some possible advantages of leasing the car?

A. You can sell the car whenever you want and you can make money on the car when you sell it.

B. The insurance costs less and you get a service discount.

C. You can give the car back whenever you want and you can get a new car whenever you want.

D. Not all of the money is needed up front and you have years to decide if you want to buy the car.

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

a. Should the cost of service and insurance determine which option you choose?

No matter the option, wither buy or lease, that is chosen, the car will still have to be serviced and the insurance cost will have to be paid for. Therefore, the cost of service and insurance should not determine which option to choose.

Therefore, the correct option is C. No, because you will probably have to pay for service and insurance with either plan.

b. Does the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement exceed the cost of purchasing the car at the outset?

From part a above, it is stated that the cost of service and insurance should not determine which option to choose.  Therefore, the cost of service and insurance should not be included in calculating the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement.

This implies the only relevant costs to use in calculating the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement are the $800 monthly fee and the $9,000 cost of purchase at the end of the lease.

Therefore, the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement can be calculated as follows:

Total lease cost = (Monthly fee * Number of months) + Cost of Purchase = ($800 * 48) + $9,000 = $38,400 + $9,000 = $47,400

Therefore, the correct option is A.Yes, the total cost of the car at the end of the lease is $47,400.

c. What are some possible advantages of leasing the car?

Under a lease agreement, there is no need to pay all the money required to buy an item at once. The leasing of an item also enables one to examine the item in details to decide whether to buy it or not at the end of the lease agreement.

Based on the explanation above, the correct option is D. Not all of the money is needed up front and you have years to decide if you want to buy the car.

Twice as many students go to the park than to the theater. Five more students go to the theater than to the museum. If 16 students go to the park, how many students go to the museum?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice as many students go to the park than to the theater :

Let number who go the theater = t

Number who goes to park = 2t

5 more students go to the theater than to the museum

Number who goes to museum = t - 5

If number of students who goes to park = 16

How many students goes to the museum :

2t = 16

t = 16/2

t = 8

Number who goes to museum = t - 5

t - 5 = 8 - 5 = 3

Hence, number of students who goes to the museum = 3
