Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic charged $55 per hour, and the second mechanic charged $60 per hour. The mechanics worked for a combined total of 20 hours, and together they charged a total of $1125. How long did each mechanic work?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15 and 5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Call x the time taken by the first chap, and y the second.

[tex]\left \{ {{x+y = 20 \atop {55x+60y=1125}} \right.[/tex]

Let's divide by 5 and play with the LHS of the first equation a bit:

[tex]11x+ 11y +y = 225\\11(x+y)+y= 225[/tex] we know how much x+y is ( first equation!) let's solve.

[tex]11(20) +y = 225 \rightarrow y=5[/tex] At this point it's easy to check that [tex]x=15[/tex]

Write the equation of a line that
passes through the following points
:
Point 2: (0,-8)
Point 1: (-3,0)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{-8}{3}x - 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for the equation of the line with two points:

Let's remind ourself of the slope - intercept formula:    [tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

We first have to find the slope of the line. This is found by using the formula :

[tex]\frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}[/tex]

We have to find the change in y (Δy) and divide it by the change in x (Δx)

We then have to plug in a coordinate given to us, and use the point's x and y value to find the y - intercept

Step 1: Slope

Let's use the slope formula

[tex]\frac{0 - (-8)}{-3 - 0} = \frac{8}{-3}[/tex]

Slope = -8/3

Step 2: Y - Intercept

To find the y - intercept, we'll update our slope - intercept formula with the slope, and plugin a point. Let's use (-3,0)

[tex]y = \frac{-8}{3}x + b[/tex]

[tex]0 = \frac{-8}{3}(-3) + b[/tex]

[tex]0 = \frac{24}{3} + b[/tex]

[tex]0 = 8 + b[/tex]

[tex]b = -8[/tex]

Step 3: Equation

Let's input our slope and y - intercept to the equation     [tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Slope = -8/3

Y - Intercept = -8

Equation:    [tex]y = \frac{-8}{3}x - 8[/tex]

I’m not sure how to answer this in a Graph, Diagram, and Algebra(algebraic reasoning too) for a,b,c, and d. Can someone please help me?

Answers

The outline that that illustrate how k values change so that the solutions are the ones in the question are as follows

(a) The number line solution contains zero

Using algebra, we have;

The given quadratic inequality is; -x² + 4 ≥ x + k

The number line solution is the expression of the solution on the number line.

We have;

-x² + 4 ≥ x + k

-x²  - x + 4 - k ≥ 0

Dividing by (-1), we get;

x² + x - 4 + k ≤ 0

When - 4 + k = -2

k = 2, we get;

x² + x - 4 + 2 ≤ 0

x² + x - 2 ≤ 0

(x - 1)·(x + 2) ≤ 0

Given that the result of the product is less than zero, we have;

((-3) - 1)·((-3) + 2) > 0

Therefore, the solution are;

x ≤ 1, or x ≥ -2

Which gives

-2 ≤ x ≤ 1

Using diagram;

The solution of the above inequality includes 0 as shown in the attached number line

Graphically;    

The graph of the inequality is plotted using MS Excel, showing the solution set, of -2 ≤ x ≤ 1

(b) There are no solution to the inequality

In the present case, we have;

((-1)² - 4×(-1) × (4 - k) <  0

17 - 4·k < 0

[tex]k > \dfrac{17}{4}[/tex]

Let k = 5, we have;

-x² + 4 ≥ x + k

-x² - x + 4 - 5 ≥ 0

-x² - x  -1 ≥ 0

The discriminant, is (1² - 4×(-1)×(-1)) = -3 < 0, therefore, there are no real

roots to inequality, and -x² - x  -1 is not equal to zero.

Graphically

Please find attached the graph of the function, which does not intersect with the x-axis, and therefore, has no values at which y = 0

(c) The solution is a single number

-x² + 4 ≥ x + k

When k = x + 5, we have;

0 ≥ x² + 2·x + 1

0 ≥ (x + 1)²

Therefore;

The only solution is; x = -1

Using diagrams:

Please find attached the solution of the function on the number line

Explanation:

This is a 30-60-90 triangle as shown by the angles. These types of triangles have their shortest leg opposite the smallest angle, and the connection between the short and long legs is

long = short*sqrt(3)

We see that the long leg is 16*sqrt(3) units long, which must mean the short leg is 16 units. This doubles to 32 when we go from short leg to hypotenuse

hypotenuse = short*2

scenario 3:

let m= cost per minute for WDE, let b= flat fee for WDE

42.5=50m+b

65=100m+b

subtract the two equations

65-42.5=50m

m= .45 (this is the cost per minute on WDE wireless)

plug in m=.45 into the first equation

42.5=50(.45)+b

b= 20 (this is the fixed monthly fee for WDE wireless)

HTR offers .25 per minute, whereas WDE offers .45 a minute which means that HTR has the cheaper per minute rate

htr has the equation .25x+30

WDE has the equation .45x+30

set them equal to each other and solve for x .25x+30=.45x+20

x= 50 minutes

Scenario 4:

Same deal as last question, let m=cost/movie, b=flat fee

41.25=5m+b

57.5=10m+b

subtract the two equations and solve for m

57.5-41.25=10m-5m+b-b

m= 3.25 (slope)

b=25  (y intercept)

y=3.25x+25

y=3.25(125)+25  = 431.25

3.25x+25=2.75x+35

.5x= 10

x= 20

Find the values of x and y

Answers

Answer:

y=30

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle has all sides equal therefore all the angles are equal.

For all the angles to be equal and add up to 180 (sum of angles in a triangle is 180), each angle has to be 60.

Therefore y=90-60

=30

x=180-(30+90)

=60

The value of a new car in 2015 was 40,000 dollar. It depreciates each year by 7%. How much will the car be worth in 2026?

Answers

Answer: $30,800

Step-by-step explanation: First you have to subtract 2026 - 2015, which is 11 years. Since it depreciates by 7% each year, you would multiply 7 by 11, which is 77. 77 is the percent of depreciation of the car. After that, you would divide 40000 by 100, which is 400. Then you multiply 400 by 77 to get you final answer.
