A car rental agency advertising a car for $27.95 per day and $0.28 per mile. If Shawn rents his car for 2 days, how many whole miles can he drive on a $200 budget?

Lets walk you through this.

First times 27.95*2 to reperesent the initial cost of days. Which gives us 27.95*2=55.9 since thats the equation we need for the money per day.

So to find the diffrence that he can spend for the rest of his $200 dollar budget we need to make an equation. And solve for X:

55.9+0.28x=200

So first things first. Subtract 55.9 from each side.

Leaving you with:

0.28x=144.1

Next we need x by itself. So dived 0.28 from each side:

Which leaves you with a long decimal form which is 514.64285714. Or we can just say 144.1/0.28 which is the same thing. And ussaly they like the fraction form better. Hope this helps ( ´•₎౩•` )

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )

you would need to know all the numbers that are on there
