Mr. Malone is contemplating which chauffeured car service to take to the airport. The first costs $28 upfront and $2 per mile. The second costs $13 plus $5 per mile. For a certain driving distance, the two companies charge the same total fare. What is the distance?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance is 8 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to write an equation for each of chauffeured car services.

The first one = 28 + 2x = ?

The second one = 13 + 5x = ?

Next, we need to figure out what x is. Usually I just plug in random numbers, but I'm sure there's a better way to do it.

I first plugged in 2 as x.

28 + 4 = 32

13 + 10 = 23

That didn't work, so I then plugged in 5.

28 + 10 = 38

13 + 25 = 38

So 5 would be the correct answer for what is the distance.

If (x - 3) represents the side of a cube, what is the
polynomial that represents its volume?​

Answers

Answer:

x³ - 9x² + 27x - 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a cube is calculated as

V = s³ ( s is the measure of the side ) , thus

V = (x - 3)³

   = (x - 3)(x - 3)(x - 3) ← expand the second/ third factors using FOIL

   = (x - 3)(x² - 6x + 9) ← distribute

   = x³ - 6x² + 9x - 3x² + 18x - 27 ← collect like terms

   = x³ - 9x² + 27x - 27

The angle on the opposite side is 40 degrees as well because they are vertical angles

6x-8 = 40 degrees

Add 8 to each side

During the 2010 baseball​ season, the number of wins for three teams was three consecutive integers. Of these three​ teams, the first team had the most wins. The last team had the least wins. The total number of wins by these three teams was 252. How many wins did each team have in the 2010​ season?

Answers

Answer: 83,84 and 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of win for the teams be x, x+1 and x+2 respectively. From the question, we are told that the total number of wins by these three teams was 252 for the 2010​ season. Therefore,

x+x+1+x+2 = 252

3x+3 = 252

3x = 252 - 3

3x = 249

x = 249/3

x = 83

This means that the team with least wins has 83 while the second team has 84 and the team with most wins has 85.

Mr. Smith had 4 daughters. Each daughter had 4 brothers. How many kids does Mr. Smith have?​

Answers

General Formulas and ConceptsLogicCritical ThinkingAnalyzation

ApplicationStep 1: Define

Let's organize what the problem gives us:

Mr. Smith had 4 daughters.Each daughter had 4 brothers.We want to find how many kids Mr. Smith has.

Step 2: Work

We can already tell that the initial amount of kids Mr. Smith has before we factor in the brother count is equal to 4, for the 4 daughters that were stated as a given in the problem.

Now, the tricky part comes in the form of "each daughter had 4 brothers." Remember that within a family, everyone has the same siblings. It doesn't matter which family member's perspective you are looking from, but your siblings will always stay the same. We can show this with an example:

Suppose I had a family of 4 kids total. I had 2 daughters and 2 sons. Their names were Rose, Sakura, David, and Andrew. Rose would then have 3 siblings: Sakura, David, and Andrew. Sakura would also have 3 siblings: Rose, David, and Andrew, so on and so forth.

Applying this example and knowledge to our current problem, if Mr. Smith's daughters each had 4 brothers, then the total number of kids Mr. Smith has is 8 total kids (4 daughters + 4 sons) since each daughter's brother would be the same sibling.

This would be called double-counting if you counted that each daughter would have 4 different siblings, resulting in a false answer of 16 kids (4 daughters multiplied by 4 brothers for each daughter).

Answer

∴ Mr. Smith has 8 kids.

The price of a gallon milk was $2.65 the price rose why dollars after the last hurricane then the price dropped $.15 and later Rosie came by five cents which expression represents the current price of milk

Answers

Answer:

p =  y + 2.55

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

Please have a look at the attached photo.  

The price of a gallon of milk was $2.65. The price rose y dollars after the last hurricane. Then the price dropped $0.15 and later rose again by $0.05. Which expression represents the current price of milk

My answer:

Let p is the price of milk

Given the information:

Stage 1: The price of a gallon milk was $2.65

<=> p = 2.65  

Stage 2: rose y dollar

<=> p = 2.65   + y

Stage 3:  price dropped $.15

<=> p =  2.65   + y  - 0.15

Stage 4: rose again by $0.05

<=> p = 2.65  + y  - 0.15  + 0.05

<=> p =  y + 2.55

Hope it will find you well.

In football seasons, a team gets 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 points for a loss. In a particular season, a team played 34 games and lost 6 games. If the team had a total of 70 points at the end of the season, what is the difference between games won and games lost?

Answers

Answer:

The difference between games won and games lost is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the team played 34 games and lost 6, the number of games where they got points is 28, therefore the number of wins plus draws, must be equal to that:

[tex]win + draws = 28[/tex]

Since each win values 3 points, while each draw values 1 point, then the number of points earned is given by:

[tex]3*win + draws = 70\\[/tex]

We now have a system of equations, which we can solve.

[tex]win + draws = 28\\3*win + draws = 70\\[/tex]

Multiplying the first equation by -1:

[tex]-win- draws = -28\\3*win + draws = 70[/tex]

Adding both equations:

[tex]2*win = 42\\win = 21[/tex]

Since the team won 21 games and lost 6, the difference is 15.

[tex]x = 1 +/- \frac{i\sqrt{10} }{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is:

[tex]2x^2 = 4x - 7\\\\2x^2 - 4x + 7 = 0[/tex]

Using quadratic formula:

[tex]x = \frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}[/tex]

From the question:

a = 2, b = -4, c = 7

Therefore:

[tex]x = \frac{4 +/- \sqrt{(-4)^2 - 4 * 2 * 7} }{2 * 2}\\\\x = \frac{4 +/- \sqrt{(16 - 56)} }{4}\\\\x = \frac{4 +/- \sqrt{-40} }{4}\\[/tex]

=> [tex]x = 1 +/- \frac{i\sqrt{10} }{2}[/tex]

The solution of given quadratic equation is given as   [tex]x = 1 \pm i\dfrac{\sqrt{10}}{2}[/tex]

Given the quadratic equation:

[tex]2x^2 = 4x -7[/tex]

Formula for finding roots of quadratic equation [tex]ax^2 + bx + c = 0[/tex] is given by:

[tex]x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \\[/tex]

Here, we get a = 2, b = -4, and c = 7.

Thus, the roots can be found as:

[tex]x = \dfrac{4 \pm \sqrt{16 - 56}}{4} \\\\x = \dfrac{4 \pm \sqrt{-40}}{4} \\\\x = \dfrac{4 \pm 2i\sqrt{10}}{4} \\\\\\x = 1 \pm i\dfrac{\sqrt{10}}{2}[/tex]

Answer:

z = 6√2 = 8.49

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are to find the value of the length z.

Mathematically, using Pythagoras’s theorem we can do this.

The Pythagoras’ theorem states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the length of the squares of the two other sides.

Kindly note that the hypotenuse is the side that faces the angle 90

These are the points needed to solve for z

Using Pythagoras,

z^2 = y^2 + 4^2

z^2 = y^2 + 16 •••••••(i)

x^2 + z^2 = 20^2

x^2 + z^2 = 400 •••••••••(ii)

z^2 + 16^2 = x^2. ••••••••(iii)

Substitute iii into ii

z^2 + 16^2 + z^2 = 400

2z^2 + 256 = 400

2z^2 = 400-256

2z^2 = 144

z^2 = 72
