Step-by-step explanation:

x is the number of miles driven, and I'm assuming that's supposed to say that he plans on driving 500 miles per day and has $210 to spend. We need a cost equation for his trip. $68.64 is the flat fee the company charges regardless of how many miles, x, are driven. If they charge $.12 per mile, that's the rate per mile of the equation which is the same thing as the slope of the linear equation. The cost equation is

y = .12x + 68.64

If he has $210 to spend, let's see how many miles he can go on that by subbing in 210 for y:

210 = .12x + 68.64 and

141.36 = .12x so

x = 1178

He can drive a total of 1178 miles with $210. If he drives 500 miles per day, 1178/500 = 2.356 days. So depending upon when he has to return the car and assuming it's in the morning, he can keep the car for 2 full days and stay within his budget.

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b. this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes. this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes. this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes. this makes them dependent events.
