A jet ski company charges a flat fee of $26.00 plus $3.25 per hour to rent a jet ski. Another company charges a fee of $24.00 plus $3.50 per hour to rent the same jet ski.

Using a graphing calculator, find the number of hours for which the costs are the same. Round your answer to the nearest whole hour.

9 answers

26.00+3.25x=24.00+3.50.
The Answer is 8!
correct

make sure your equation is

26.00+3.25x=24.00+3.50x
Yep thanks.
A candy store makes a 9-pound mixture of gummy candy, jelly beans, and hard candy. The cost of gummy candy is $2.00 per pound, jelly beans cost $3.00 per pound, and hard candy costs $3.00 per pound. The mixture calls for two times as many gummy candy pieces as jelly beans. The total cost of the mixture is $23.00. How much of each ingredient did the store use?

A.
3 lbs. gummy candy, 2 lbs. jelly beans, 4 lbs. hard candy
B.
4 lbs. gummy candy, 2 lbs. jelly beans, 3 lbs. hard candy
C.
4 lbs. gummy candy, 3 lbs. jelly beans, 2 lbs. hard candy
D.
2 lbs. gummy candy, 3 lbs. jelly beans, 4 lbs. hard candy
What is the minimum value for z=3x-1/2y over the feasibility region defined by the constraints?
a.-4
b.-5
c.-3
d.-6

constraints
x greater than or equal to 0
y less than or equal to 8
y greater than or equal to x
y greater than or equal to -1/2x+6
X Lbs. of jelly beans.
2x Lbs. of gummy candy.
9-(x+2x) = (9-3x) Lbs. of hard candy.

3*x + 2*2x + 3*(9-3x) = 23.00.
3x + 4x + 27-9x = 23
X = 2.0 Lbs. of jelly beans.

2x = 2 * 2 = 4 Lbs. of gummy candy.

9-3x = 9-3*2 = 3 Lbs. of hard candy.
For the gummy equation you dont really need to do anything. Just look and see which answer has two times as many gummies as jelly beans. The answer is B.
