Mathematics Homework Help

wk 1) Research an advertised truck rental price plan that does not include unlimited miles and provide the details of the advertisement. (e.g., $50/day with 200 miles included and $0.10 per additional mile.)

Create your own similar truck rental price plan with different values. Be sure to not use the exact same values used in a previous post.

Based on your plan, write an equation that can be used to determine the daily cost, D(t) of the rental when t miles are needed, and use that equation to calculate the total cost when 300, 1,000, and 2,000 miles are used.

In your responses to peers, compare the total costs you calculated in Part 3 with those of at least two peers. Discuss the differences you notice and how they could have been foreseen by just comparing the formulas.

=================================================

wk 2) Use an outside source to search for a quadratic equation that models something from your daily life. (Be sure to cite the source you use.)

Solve the equation in two ways.

Discuss which method you liked better and why.

In your responses to peers, compare and contrast your preferences for how to solve quadratic equations.

wk 3) Your task for this discussion is as follows:

Fill in the table with what you are typically doing during each of the following times.

Time (T) Activity (A)

4 AM

8 AM

12 PM

4 PM

8 PM

12 AM

Represent your relation (T, A) in an alternative manner other than the table created in part (a). (i.e., as ordered pairs or with a mapping diagram.)

Determine whether or not your relation is a function. Why or why not?

In your responses to peers, comment on whether or not you think their relations are also functions.
