Charley's rent a truck agency charges $47 per day plus 8 cents per mile to rent a certain truck. Hugh's rent a truck charges $40 per day plus 15 cents per mile to rent the same truck. How much miles will have to be driven in one day for the cost of charley's car to equal the cost of hugh's truck?

100 miles must be driven in one day for the cost of charley's car to equal the cost of hugh's truck.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of miles that must be driven in one day for the cost of charley's car to equal the cost of hugh's truck.

Charley's rent a truck agency charges $47 per day plus 8 cents per mile to rent a certain truck. It means that the cost of renting this truck and driving x miles in a day is

47 + 0.08x

Hugh's rent a truck charges $40 per day plus 15 cents per mile to rent the same truck. It means that the cost of renting this truck and driving x miles in a day is

40 + 0.15x

For the cost of both trucks to be the same, the number of miles would be

40 + 0.15x = 47 + 0.08x

0.15x - 0.08x = 47 - 40

0.07x = 7

x = 7/0.07

x = 100 miles

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.
