Company A charges $331.35 per week for a compact car with unlimited miles. Company B charges $175 per week plus $0.53 per mile,

for the same car. How many miles must be driven in a week so that company A is a better deal than company B?

Answer:

Company A is a better deal than Company B for the number of miles greater than 295 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y ----> the charge per week in dollars

x ----> the number of miles

we have

<em>Company A</em>

y=331.35 -----> equation A

<em>Company B</em>

y=0.53x+175 -----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

Equate equation A and equation B and solve for x

331.35=0.53x+175

0.53x=331.35-175\\0.53x=156.35\\x=295\ mi

For x=295 miles the charge in Company A and Company B is the same

therefore

Company A is a better deal than Company B for the number of miles greater than 295 miles

yawa3891 [41]
The total of the running backs' salaries need to be added together first. So, $1 000 000 + $850 000 + $750 000 + $500 000 = $3 100 000. Now we divide the total number of salaries by the running back salaries: $3 100 000/$33 000 000 = 0.094 x 100 = 9.4 %.
Round off to nearest percent = 9.00 %.

Graph a line with a slope of -2/5 that contains the point (-3,5)
kotykmax [81]

y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{19}{5}

Further explanation:

We have to find the equation of the line first to graph the line.

The general form of slope-intercept form of equation of line is:

y=mx+b

Given

m=-\frac{2}{5}

Putting the value of slope in the equation

y=-\frac{2}{5}x+b

To find the value of b, putting the point (-3,5) in equation

5=-\frac{2}{5}(-3)+b\\5=\frac{6}{5}+b\\5-\frac{6}{5}+b\\b=\frac{25-6}{5}\\b=\frac{19}{5}

Putting the values of b and m

y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{19}{5}

The graph is made by using online graphing tool Desmos.

Keywords: Equation of line, graph of line

A commercial jet can fly 868 miles in 2 hours with a tailwind but only 792 miles in 2 hours into a headwind. Find the speed of t
erik [133]

Answer:

The speed of the jet in still air is 415 mph and the speed of the wind is 19 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

Let

x -----> the speed of the wind in miles per hour

y ----> the speed of the jet in still air in miles per hour

we know that

<em>With a tailwind</em>

y+x=\frac{868}{2}

y+x=434 ----> equation A

<em>With a headwind</em>

y-x=\frac{792}{2}

y-x=396 ----> equation B

solve the system of equations A and B by elimination

Adds equation A and equation B

y+x=434\\y-x=396\\------\\y+y=434+396\\2y=830\\y=415

<em>Find the value of x</em>

y+x=434

415+x=434

x=434-415

x=19

therefore

The speed of the jet in still air is 415 mph and the speed of the wind is 19 mph
