Mackenzie needed to get her computer fixed. She took it to the repair store. The technician at the store worked on the computer for 3.75 hours and charged her $157 for parts. The total was $400.75. Write and solve an equation which can be used to determine x, the cost of the labor per hour.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=65

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the given conditions, formulate: 157+3.75 X x=400.75

Rearrange unknown terms and Calculate the sum:

3.75x = 400.75 - 157

3.75x = 243.75

x=243.75 / 3.75

x=65

Answer 2

The cost of labour per hour is $65.

Given that, the technician at the store worked on the computer for 3.75 hours and charged her $157 for parts. The total was $400.75.

We need to write and solve an equation which can be used to determine x, the cost of the labour per hour.

What is a linear equation?

A linear equation is an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. It is also known as a one-degree equation. The standard form of a linear equation in one variable is of the form Ax + B = 0. Here, x is a variable, A is a coefficient and B is constant. The standard form of a linear equation in two variables is of the form Ax + By = C. Here, x and y are variables, A and B are coefficients and C is a constant.

Now, according to question 157+3.75×x=400.75

⇒3.75x=400.75-157

⇒3.75x=243.75

⇒x=243.75/3.75

⇒x=65

Therefore, the cost of labour per hour is $65.

A boy stands 12 metres from the foot of the building and observes the angle of elevation of the top of the building. The height is of the building is approximately

Answers

Answer:

10.07 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the angle of elevation is 40° and the boy is 12 meters from the building.

This means that in order to figure out the height of the building, we must use the tangent function which states that [tex]tan(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex].

The opposite side in this case is the height of the building in relation to the angle and the adjacent side is the distance the boy is away from the building.

Therefore, we can find the height of the building by plugging in our known information and solving for the opposite side:

[tex]tan(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

[tex]tan(40^\circ)=\frac{x}{12}[/tex]

[tex]12tan(40^\circ)=x[/tex]

[tex]x=12tan(40^\circ)[/tex]

[tex]x\approx10.07[/tex]

Therefore, the height of the building is approximately 10.07 meters.

HELP PLS

Answers

She got 60 correct and 15 wrong. She got 11.25% wrong

Answer: Sarah got 60 questions correct, 15 questions wrong, and she got 20% of the questions wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's solve for how many questions Sarah got correct.

80% as a fraction can be simplified as [tex]\frac{8}{10}[/tex]. To find how many questions Sarah answered correctly, we can set up a proprtional relationship as follows:

[tex]\frac{8}{10}=\frac{?}{75}[/tex]

Next, after we cross multiply, 8 X 75 = 600, and 600 ÷ 10 = 60

So, Sarah got 60 out of 75 questions correct.

To find how many she missed, we can simply subtract 60 from 75 to get 15.

So, Sarah got 15 out of 75 questions wrong.

Finally, to find the percentage of the questions that Sarah got wrong, we can use the 15 out of 75 incorrect questions that we found earlier to create a percentage.

15 ÷ 75 = 0.2

0.2 X 100 = 20

So, Sarah got 20% of the questions wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

16+13(10)=146

14(10)+6=146

Answer:

See answer below.

Step-by-step explanation:

# 3  x = number of boxes

     $16 + 13x = Tracy cost

     $6 + 14x = Brendan cost

     The costs are equal.  

    16 + 13x = 6 + 14x

     10 + 13x = 14x

      10 = x

#4   First plan                                                            second plan

      x = number of people at a table          x = number of people at a table

      y = number of people at a booths        y = number of people at a booths    

     

24x + 21y = 270       multiply by 23   ⇔   552x + 483y = 6210

 14x + 23y = 222      multiply by -21   ⇔ -294x  - 483y = -4662

                                                                   258x    =     1548

                                                                          x  = 6

Six people at each tables

 24 (6)  + 21y = 270                                      

   144 + 21y = 270

         21y = 126

            y = 6      

Answer: 6 people at each table; 6 people at each booth.

Labor unions arose in the nineteenth century as increasing numbers of Americans took jobs in factories, mines, and mills in the growing industrial economy.

The Knights of Labor, founded in 1869, was the first major labor organization in the United States. The Knights organized unskilled and skilled workers, campaigned for an eight hour workday, and aspired to form a cooperative society in which laborers owned the industries in which they worked.

The Knights’ membership collapsed following the 1886 Haymarket Square riot in Chicago. By 1886 the American Federation of Labor (AFL), an alliance of skilled workers’ trade unions, was growing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of y in the second equation is double the coefficient of y in the first. We can subtract twice the first equation from the second to eliminate y.

  (3x +4) -2(x +2y) = (4) -2(0)

  x = 4 . . . . . . . . . simplify

Substituting into the first equation, we have ...

  4 +2y = 0

  2 +y = 0 . . . . . . divide by 2

  y = -2 . . . . . . . . subtract 2

The solution is (x, y) = (4, -2).

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y = -5/6x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 2 points, (6,0) and (6,1), we can calculate for the slope by using the formula

Slope = m = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1) = (1-6)/(6-0) = -5/6

Then plug in m, x(from one of the point), and y(from one of the point) to the equation y = mx + b which get us 0 = -5/6*6+b if we use the point (6,0). Now we'll get b = 6. And then plug in -5/6 for m and 6 for b into the equation y = mx + b we'll get y = -5/6x + 6

The solution of the equation, when it is solved for y, has one variable term x with coefficient 8/7 and one constant term 23/7, 8/7x-23/7.

How to solve an equation for its variable?

The solution of an equation is the value of the variable of the equation, for which the equation is satisfied.

To solve an equation for its variable, isolate the variable on one side of the equation using the mathematical operations.

The given expression is,

[tex]8x - 7y = 23[/tex]

The expression has two variables, x and y. To solve it for y, subtract 8x from both sides,

[tex]8x - 7y -8x= 23-8x\\-7y=23-8x[/tex]

Divide with number 7 both sides and change the sign of the equation,

[tex]y=-\left(\dfrac{23-8x}{7}\right)\\y=\dfrac{8x-23}{7}\\y=\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{23}{7}[/tex]

given the function f(x)=-2x^4-16x^3-36x^2, determine all intervals on which f is both decreasing and concave down

Answers

Answer:

  (0, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

The only maximum, local or otherwise, is at x=0. Since the leading coefficient is negative, the function is decreasing and concave down for x-values greater than 0.

  0 < x < ∞ . . . . . decreasing and concave down

__

Since the leading coefficient of this even-degree function is negative, it will have a generally ∩ shape. It will be decreasing to the right of any local maximum.

The first derivative is negative only for x > 0, so that is the only region where the function is decreasing. Since that x=0 is a local maximum, the function must be concave downward in that neighborhood.

__

The attached graph shows the function and its first and second derivatives. The function is concave down where the second derivative is negative, to the right of the right-most point of inflection.

_____

Additional comment

A graphing calculator provides a quick answer to a question like this. You can find the same answer algebraically.

The first derivative is ...

  f'(x) = -8x^3 -48x^2 -72x = -8x(x^2 +6x +9) = -8x(x+3)^2

This has a zero at x=-3 where the graph of it touches the x-axis, but does not change sign. That means f(x) has a flat spot at x=-3, but is not decreasing except to the right of x=0.

The second derivative is ...

  f''(x) = -24x^2 -96x -72 = -24(x^2 +4x +3) = -24(x +1)(x +3)

The second derivative will be negative for x < -3 and x > -1, to the left and right of the points of inflection. This means f(x) is concave upward only for -3 < x < -1, and concave downward everywhere else.

The function is concave downward and decreasing for x > 0.
