When Susan babysat for 8 hours and did odd jobs for 3 hours, she made a total of $39. When she babysat for 2 hours and did odd jobs for 5 hours, she made a total of $31. How much does she charge per hour for babysitting and for doing odd jobs?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = charge for babysitting = $3

y = charge for doing odd jobs = $5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = charge for babysitting

y = charge for doing odd jobs

8x + 3y = 39 (1)

2x + 5y = 31 (2)

Multiply (1) by 5and (2) by 3

40x + 15y = 195 (3)

6x + 15y = 93 (4)

Subtract (4) from (3)

40x - 6x = 195 - 93

34x = 102

Divide both sides by 34

x = 102 / 34

= 3

x = $3

Substitute x = 3 into (1)

8x + 3y = 39

8(3) + 3y = 39

24 + 3y = 39

3y = 39 - 24

3y = 15

y = 15 / 3

= 5

y = $5

x = charge for babysitting = $3

y = charge for doing odd jobs = $5

a city has a garden in the shape of an equilateral triangle with 40 feet sides. there is a walkway that runs from a gate located at the midpoint of one side of the equilateral triangle to a fountain at the opposite vertex. approximately how long is the walkway?

Answers

Answer:

The walkway is approximately 34.64 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the sides of the equilateral triangle shaped the city garden = 40 feet

The path of the walkway = From the midpoint of a side to the opposite vertex

Therefore, we have;

Let x, represent the length of the walkway

We have that the x, a side of the equilateral triangle, and half the side of the location of the gate, forms a right triangle, with a side of the equilateral triangle representing the hypotenuse side

Therefore, we have;

40² = x² + (40/2)²

40² = x² + 20²

x² = 40² - 20² = 1200

x = √1200 = 20·√3

The length of the walkway = x = 20·√3 ≈ 34.64 feet.

The carnival fundraiser at Westville Elementary School raised $300 on Friday. On Saturday, the carnival will raise 480 percent of that amount. Which statements are true about the amount of money that the carnival will raise on Saturday? Check all that apply.

Answers

The missing options in the question are:

a.) The answer will be less than $300 because 100 is less than 480.

b.) The answer will be greater than $300 because 480 is greater than 100.

c.) (100)(3) = 300, so 480(3) is the amount of money that the carnival will raise on Saturday.

d.) 480 + 300 is the amount of money that the carnival raised on Saturday.

e.) The carnival raised $780 on Saturday.

f.) The carnival raised $1,440 on Saturday.

Answer:

The correct options are: (b), (c), (f)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The carnival fundraiser raised $300 on Friday

On Saturday, It was stated that the carnival fundraiser will raise 480 percent of the amount raised on Friday;

i.e.

= (480% × 300)

[tex]= \dfrac{480}{100} \times 300[/tex]

= 480 (3)

= $1440

So; we are to check the given option and choose the statements that are true about the amount of money that will be raised at the carnival on Saturday.

From the above explanation;

The true statements are:

The answer will be greater than $300 because 480 is greater than 100.

(100)(3) = 300, so 480(3) is the amount of money that the carnival will raise on Saturday.

The carnival raised $1,440 on Saturday.

2   2

divide two in both sides to get y by itself

y=1

Answer:

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

6 = 2 (y + 2)

Distribuite:

2 * y = 2y

2 * 2 = 4

2y + 4 = 6

Use additive inverses. The additive inverse of addition is subtraction.

Subtract 4 from both sides:

2y + 4 - 4 = 6 - 4

6 - 4 = 2

2y ÷ 2 = 2 ÷ 2

2y ÷ 2 = y

2 ÷ 2 = 1

To check our answer we multiply how much y is (which is 1) by 2.

2(1) + 4 = 6

2 * 1 = 2

2 + 4 = 6.

A store had 250 bottles of water. Each week, 40% of the bottles were sold and 48 new bottles arrived in shipments.

Which recursive function best represents the number of bottles of water in the store, given that f(0) = 250?


A. f(n) = f(n − 1) ⋅ 0.6 + 48, n > 0

B. f(n) = 250 − f(n − 1) ⋅ 0.4 + 48, n > 0

C. f(n) = f(n − 1) ⋅ 0.4 + 48, n > 0

D. f(n) = 250 − f(n − 1) ⋅ 0.6 + 48, n > 0

pls give reason

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  

Initial number of bottles = 250

Every week = 40% is sold and 48 bottles arrive.

Week 1 = 250 - (250 x 0.40) + 48 = 250 - 100 + 48 = 198

Week 2 = 198 - (198 x 0.40) + 48 = 198 - 79 + 48 = 167

Answer is: A. f(n ) = f(n - 1) • 0.6 + 48, n > 0.
