To determine how many oil changes you will need the first year, you can calculate the number of miles driven the first year and then use that to determine how many groups of 3000 miles you will drive after the first 5000 miles.


1. 52 x 250 = 13000 miles

2. 13000 miles - 5000 miles (1 oil change) = 8000 miles

3. 8000 miles - 3000 miles (1 oil change) - 3000 miles (1 oil change) = 2000 miles


The first year, you will need 3 oil changes.

How are triangles different in spherical geometry as opposed to euclidean geometry?
Ivan
Euclidean geometry, is simply plane and solid geometry. It is named after the Greek mathematician, Euclid, when he proposed his five postulates which serve as basis of drawing plane and solid figures. So, in a nutshell, a triangle in Euclidean geometry is a two-dimensional figure composed of three sides and whose interior angles sum up to 180°. A triangle in spherical geometry, on the other hand, is a triangle formed by three arcs. Thus, it is three-dimensional, and the interior angles sum up to more than 180°. The difference is shown in the attached picture.

Which quadratic equation is equivalent to (x – 4)2 – (x – 4) – 6 = 0?
Viktor [21]

I hope choices must be given in the problem.

I am showing the method to find the equivalent equation of the above equation. You can match with your given choices.

First step is to expand the first term. So,

(x-4)² = (x - 4)(x - 4) Since a²= a*a

= x² - 4x - 4x + 4 * 4 By multiplying.

= x² -8x + 16 Combine the like terms.

So, (x - 4)² - (x -4) - 6

= x² - 8x + 16 - x + 4 - 6

= x² - 9x + 14 Combine the like terms.

So, equivalent equation of the above equation is x² - 9x + 14 = 0.

Why might working on a commission basis make dealing with finances more difficult
Kobotan [32]
<span>Dealing with finances becomes more difficult when working on a commission basis because unlike working on a salary basis, there is no regular pay. A commission means that earnings are based on rate of sale or number of completed tasks. Income may be reduced if you do not sell enough, or fail to complete enough tasks.</span>

A while back, either James borrowed $12 from his friend Rita or she borrowed $12 from him, but he can’t quite remember which. Ei
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

First option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let amounts of money James may have after he sees Rita be x.

It is given that either James borrowed $12 from his friend Rita or she borrowed $12 from him.

So meeting Rita second time either he will $12 or he will receive $12.

The amounts of money James may have after second meeting with Rita is:

Case 1: If he pays $12.

x=42.80-12             .... (1)

Case 1: If he receives $12.

x=42.80+12           .... (2)

On combining equation (1) and (2), we get

x=42.80\pm 12

Subtract 42.80 from both sides.

x-42.80=\pm 12

It can be written as

|x-42.80|=12

Therefore first option is correct.
