Brandon, an analyst at Agency A, rents a car at $40 per day. Due to a rental company discount, if a car is rented for 4 or more consecutive days, the customer gets the last day free and pays only $30 per day for the other days. Brandon rents a car for 6 consecutive days. Another analyst, Whitney, rents a car for 3 consecutive days. The average daily rate paid by Brandon is what percentage of the average daily rate paid by Whitney?
133.33%
160%
62.5%
75%
65.5%

62.5%

Explanation:

In this example, Brandon rented the car for 6 consecutive days. This means that he was able to take advantage of the promotion. Therefore, he only paid for five days (got one day free) at a rate of $30 per day (as opposed to $40). Therefore, he paid:

$30 * 5 = 150

On the other hand, Whitney rented a car for three days. She did not qualify for the discount, which means that she paid for all her days, at a rate of $40 per day. Therefore, she paid:

$40 * 3 = 120

To obtain the average daily rate of each person, we would need to divide this final rate by the number of days each person used a car. That would look like this:

Brandon: $150 / 6 = $25

Whitney: $120 / 3 = $40

Therefore, when comparing these two numbers, we see that the average daily rate paid by Brandon is 62.5% percentage of the average daily rate paid by Whitney.

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'
