The cost to rent a moving truck is a flat fee of $25 plus $0.60 per mile. the equation c = 25 + 0.6m models the cost, c, in dollars for the number of miles, m, traveled in the truck. identify the independent and dependent variables.

For this case we have the following equation:

c = 25 + 0.6m

Where,

m: number of miles

c: total cost of rent

We note that the cost of rent depends on the number of miles the truck travels. Therefore, we have:

Independent variable: m

Dependent variable: c

The independent and dependent variables are:

Independent variable: m

Dependent variable: c

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
