Luke owns a trucking company. For every truck that goes out, Luke must pay the driver $17 per hour of driving and also has an expense of $1.75 per mile driven for gas and maintenance. On one particular day, the driver drove an average of 40 miles per hour and Luke's total expenses for the driver, gas and truck maintenance were $522. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of hours the driver worked and the number of miles the truck drove. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

17h+1.75m=522 m=40h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h=  {the number of hours the driver drove}

Let m=  the number of miles driven

The driver makes $17 for each hour working, so if the driver worked for hh hours, Luke would have to pay him 17h17h dollars. The cost of gas and maintenance is $1.75 per mile, so for mm miles Luke's costs would be 1.75m1.75m dollars. The total cost of the route 17h+1.75m17h+1.75m equals \$522:$522:

17h+1.75m=522

17h+1.75m=522

Since the driver drove an avearge of 40 miles per hour, if the driver drove  hour, he would have driven 40 miles, and if the driver drove hh hours, he would have driven 40h40h miles, therefore mm equals 40h:40h:

m=40h

m=40h

Write System of Equations:

17h+1.75m= 522

m=40h

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

the domain is the set { -2, 0, 2, 3}

discussion:

the domain is the set of x values in the ordered pairs (x,y). taking the x, or first component, of each ordered pair gives   -2, 0, 2, 3.
