Answer: Option 'b' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount Josh is able to save = $480

Number of hours of work each week = 5

Number of weeks = 3

So, Amount Josh makes is given  by

\dfrac{480}{5\times 3}\\\\=\dfrac{480}{15}\\\\=\$32

Similarly,

Number of hours of work each week by Greg = 8

Number of weeks = 3

So, Amount Greg makes is given by

\dfrac{480}{3\times 8}\\\\=\dfrac{480}{24}\\\\=\$20

More amount of money that Josh make than Greg is given by

32-20\\\\=\$12

Hence, Option 'b' is correct.

Josh = 480/15 or 32

Greg = 480/24 or 20

Let J = how much more Josh has than Greg.

J = 32 - 20

Solve for J to find your answer.

dsp73

Answer:

There are 60 total questions on the course exam.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of questions finished by Jasmine = 12

Percentage shown on the bar = 20%

The total number of questions will be 100%, therefore, 20% of the questions are equal to 12.

Let,

x be the total number of questions on the course exam

20% of x = 12

\frac{20}{100}x=12\\0.2x=12

Dividing both sides by 0.2

\frac{0.2x}{0.2}=\frac{12}{0.2}\\x=60

Hence,

There are 60 total questions on the course exam.

What is the equation of the line that has a y-intercept of 5 and is parallel to
victus00 [196]

Answer:

A) 2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, turn 2x - y = 16 into 2x - 16 = y by adding the <em>y</em> on both sides and subtracting 16 from both sides.

You'll see that option A is the only option that matches the original function that we're comparing to.

Graphs will always be parallel to each other if they have the same slope, and both these functions have the same slope of 2.

Write an equation for the nth term of the geometric sequence. Then find the 7th term. 2,-6,18,-54,...
Sonja [21]

soln,

from the series,

a = 2

t2 = -6

r = t2/a

=   \frac{ - 6}{2}

= -3

therefore, tn =

{ar}^{n - 1}

=  {2 \times  - 3}^{n - 1}

now,

seventh term =

{2 \times  - 3}^{7 - 1}

=  {2 \times  - 3}^{6}

= 2 \times 729

= 1458
