Dealership a has 15 salesmen, 30 mechanics, 9 advisors, and 4 managers. dealership b has 12 salesmen, 28 mechanics, 9 advisors, and 5 managers. both dealerships are rated equally. bob needs his transmission fixed and gets a quote from each dealership. dealership a has their mechanics quote $32 an hour at 8 hours for 3 days. dealership b has their mechanics quote $38 an hour at 8 hours for 2.5 days. only 1 mechanic works on a car at a time. managers work only on weekdays with 8 hours a day at $40 an hour. what is the price for the cheaper transmission fix? do not include $ in answer. example, if answer is $7, put 7

answer: the four apples you took away.

step-by-step explanation:

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places

answer: 40392

step-by-step explanation:

10098 x 4 = 40392

the solution, from the graphing of the two lines, is (3,2), i.e., x = 3, y = 2.
