Answer: 500 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sergio and Lizeth have planned to rent a car from a company that charges $75 a week plus $0.25 a mile.

i.e. Fixed charge= $75

Rate per mile = $0.25

Let x denotes the number of miles.

Then, Total charges = Fixed charge+ Rate per mile x No. of miles traveled

=  $75+ $0.25x

To keep budget within $200, we have following equation.

75+0.25x=200\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.25=200-75\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.25=125\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{125}{0.25}=\dfrac{12500}{25}=500

Hence, they can travel 500 miles and still keep within their $200 budget.

Thank you for your question!

In order to get the cost of 1 kg of cabbage, divide the cost by the quantity:

1.20/2.5
0.48

Now, multiply the amount for 1 kg to 3.75, because you need 3.75 times the amount.

0.48 * 3.75
1.80

So, it would cost 1.80 pounds for 3.75 kg.
Hope this helped!

yanalaym [24]

Answer:the uncle is 54 years old.

The woman is 18 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the age of the uncle.

Let y represent the age of the woman that he married.

In the film, an actor played an elderly uncle character is criticized for marrying a woman when he is 3 times her age. This means that

x = 3y

He wittily replies, "Ah, but in 18 years time I shall only be twice her age. It means that

x + 18 = 2(y + 18)

x + 18 = 2y + 36 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 3y into equation 1, it becomes

3y + 18 = 2y + 36

3y - 2y = 36 - 18

y = 18

x = 3y = 3 × 18

x = 54

Using the formula a^2+b^2=c^2you can fill in the numbers so that a=height of mattress in inches,b=40 inches or distance from base of the bed and c=48 or length of the ramp. a^2+40^2=48^2a^2+1600=2304
So then it becomes2304-1600=a^2704=a^2 26.5+=aSo, The top of the mattress(after rounding) is 26.5 inches off the ground.
