Answer:

Kevin is going to be able to have enough money for the concert the fastest

Philip needs at least 4 weeks

Kevin needs at least 3 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Philip</u>

  • $8.75/hour * 6 hours/weekend * 1 weekend/week = $52.5/week
  • $45 saved

Let's call x to the number of weeks Philip needs to reach $225.

52.5*x + 45 = 225

52.5*x = 225 - 45

x = 180/52.5

x = 3.43

He needs at least 4 weeks

<u>Kevin</u>

  • 3 hours/day * $7.5/hour *3 days/week = $67.5/week
  • $30 saved

Let's call y to the number of weeks Kevin needs to reach $225.

67.5*y + 30 = 225

67.5*y = 225 - 30

y = 195/67.5

y = 2.9

He needs at least 3 weeks

Given that the endpoints of a diameter are (7,-3) and (-1,7), determine the equation of the circle.
Margaret [11]

The equation of a circle is written as (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^r

H and k are the x and y coordinates of the center of the circle and r is the radius.

You are given the diameter coordinates so find the halfway point for the center then calculate the radius

Midpoint = (x1 +x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2

Midpoint = (7 + -1)/2, (-3 +7)/2

Midpoint = 6/2, 4/2

Midpoint = 3,2

So h = 3 and k = 2

Now find radius by finding the distance between the center point and an end point.

Distance = sqrt(41)

Equation of the circle:

(X-3)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 41

The table below describes the smoking habits of a group of asthma sufferers. If one of the 1156 people is randomly selected, fin
Rashid [163]

Answer:

0.554

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, the table is shown

Total people: 1156

Nonsmoker men + occasional smoker men + regular smoker men + heavy smoker men + heavy smoker women = men + heavy smoker women = 601 + 39 = 640

Probability that the person is a  man or a heavy smoker = 640/1156 = 0.554

(Notice that if you directly add heavy smoker and total men you will count twice heavy smoker men)
