Each day, Deanne starts working at 10:00 a.m. and Stephanie starts working at noon. At which time each day are the earnings for Deanne equal to the earnings for Stephanie?
Answers
Answer:
Time when both earnings are equal = 5:00 Pm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total earning of Deanne = 6.50x
Total earning of Stephanie = 9.10(x -2)
Work started at 10:00 am
Find:
Time when both earnings are equal
Computation:
Total earning of Deanne = Total earning of Stephanie
6.50x = 9.10(x - 2)
6.5x = 9.1(x-2)
6.5x = 9.1x - 18.2
9.1x - 6.5x = 18.2
2.6x = 18.2
x = 18.2 / 2.6
x = 7 hour
So,
Time when both earnings are equal = Work started at 10:00 am + 7 hour
Time when both earnings are equal = 5:00 Pm

Num. 2: A = 25, Num. 3 = 63, Num. 4 = 80
Step-by-step explanation:

For number 2:
First, turn the triangle into a rectangle by cutting it in half and attaching it to the other half so it forms a rectangle.
Since you cut the triangle in half, you also have to split 5 in half, so the bottom length is now 2.5.
Now, simply multiply 2.5 by 10, and you have the area for number 2.
The area for number 2 is 25.
For number 3:
This one is much easier. Just think of the shape as a normal square that has been tipped to the side. That means that you would solve for area the same way: 9 x 7, which means that the area for number 3 is 63.
For number 4:
This one is also easy. Simply cut, and paste. Now the right side is 10, and the top side is 8. Multiply, and the area will be 80 m.
Please re-post 1 and 5, as I am not able to solve them. Sorry this answer took so long!

Complete Question
David bought a chain of fast food restaurants that operated 200 stores in 2009. The number of restaurants has grown at a rate of 12% annually.how many stores does the restaurant operate in 2020?
Answer:
[tex]N_{11} \approx 749[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Number of Fast Food Restaurants [tex]P=200[/tex]
Number of years [tex]t=11yrs[/tex]
Rate [tex]r=12%[/tex]
Generally the equation for the Number of restaurant in operation in 2020 is mathematically given by
[tex]N(t)=Pe^{rt}[/tex]
Therefore
For t=11
[tex]N_{11}=200*e^{0.12*11}[/tex]
[tex]N_{11}=748.7[/tex]
[tex]N_{11} \approx 749[/tex]

Work out the size of angle X ?
Answers
Answer:
x = 121°
Step-by-step explanation:
∠ 1 + 115° = 180°
∠ 1 = 180 - 115
∠ 1 = 65°
∠ 2 + 304° = 360°
∠2 = 360 - 304
∠ 2 = 56°
∠ 1 + ∠ 2 + ∠ 3 = 180°
65° + 56 ° + ∠ 3 = 180°
∠3 = 180 - 65 - 56
∠ 3 = 59°
∠3 + x = 180°
59° + x = 180°
x = 180 - 59
x = 121 °

Charlie's garage has a rectangular floor space. Its length is 3 times its width. Charlie extends the width of his garage to 6 m, providing a floor area of 45 m2. what is the percentage
Answers
Answer:
The percentage change is 140%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]L= 3W_1[/tex] ---- initial dimension
[tex]W_2 = 6m[/tex] --- new width
[tex]A_2 = 45m^2[/tex] --- new dimension
Required
The percentage increment
The length remains constant because only the width is extended.
The new area is:
[tex]Area =Length * Width[/tex]
[tex]A_2=L * W_2[/tex]
Make L the subject
[tex]L = \frac{A_2}{ W_2}[/tex]
Substitute values for A and W
[tex]L = \frac{45m^2}{6m}[/tex]
[tex]L = \frac{45m}{6}[/tex]
[tex]L = 7.5m[/tex] --- this is the length of the garden
Calculate the initial width:
[tex]L= 3W_1[/tex]
Make W1 the subject
[tex]W_1 = \frac{1}{3} * L[/tex]
[tex]W_1 = \frac{1}{3} * 7.5[/tex]
[tex]W_1 = 2.5[/tex]
So, the initial area is:
[tex]A_1 = L_1 * W_1[/tex]
[tex]A_1 = 2.5 * 7.5[/tex]
[tex]A_1 = 18.75[/tex]
The percentage change in area is:
[tex]\%A = \frac{A_2 - A_1}{A_1}[/tex]
[tex]\%A = \frac{45 - 18.75}{18.75}[/tex]
[tex]\%A = \frac{26.25}{18.75}[/tex]
[tex]\%A = 1.4[/tex]
Express as percentage
[tex]\%A = 1.4*100\%[/tex]
[tex]\%A = 140\%[/tex]

Chris is playing a card game with his friends. The game uses only the four aces from a standard deck of cards. For each move, a player draws one card, replaces it, and then draws the second card.
Answers
Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the aces for hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades. So, are red and [tex] c, s[/tex] is black.
Since the first card is replaced, the two picks are identical. This means that the sample space is given by all the possible couple
There are 16 such couples (we have four choices for the first card, and the same four choices for the second card). Now let's compute the odds in our favor to deduce the probability of winning:
If we want a player to draw two cards of the same color, the following couples are good:
so 8 possible couples over 16. This means that a player's probability of drawing two cards of the same color is 8/16 = 1/2.
Similarly, the probability of drawing a red ace first and then a black ace is represented by the following couples:
which are 4 over the same 16 as above, thus leading to a probability of 4/16 = 1/4.
