If last week Salazar played 13 more tennis games than Perry and they played a combined total of 53 games, then Salazar played a total of 33 games.

Let the total number of games played by Perry be x.

It is given that, Salazar played 13 more tennis games than Perry.

⇒ Total games played by Salazar = x + 13

Also, Salazar and Perry played a combined of 53 games.

Hence, total number of tennis games played by Salazar and Perry = 53

⇒ Games played by Salazar + Games played by Perry = 53

⇒ x + (x + 13) = 53

2x + 13 = 53

2x = 53 - 13

2x = 40

x = 40 / 2

x = 20

Therefore, total number of games played by Salazar = x+13

= 20 + 13

= 33

Thus, Salazar played total 33 games.

A scientist finds the distances d that two snakes travel in a time of t seconds. the equation 16t = d represents the relationshi

wlad13 [49]

From the equation given, the time for the black mamba snake to cover distance d, will be d/16 while that for the the rought-scaled snake would be d/1.5.
Assume that the distance covered by both snakes is 200 meters;
Then,
Time taken by the black mamba is 200/16 = 12.5 seconds, and
Time taken by the rought-scaled snake is 200/1.5 = 133.33 seconds
Clearly the black mamba is faster at 12.5 seconds compared with the rought-scaled snake.

Find the solution set of this inequality|10x+20| ≤10

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

solution is

[-3,-1]

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

$|10x+20|\leq 10$

Firstly, we will find critical values

so, let's assume it is equal

$|10x+20|= 10$

now, we can break absolute sign

For $|10x+20|= -(10x+20)$ :

$-(10x+20)= 10$

we can solve for x

$-10x-20= 10$

Add both sides by 20

$-10x-20+20= 10+20$

$-10x= 30$

Divide both sides by -10

and we get

$x=-3$

For $|10x+20|= (10x+20)$ :

$(10x+20)= 10$

we can solve for x

$10x+20= 10$

Subtract both sides by 20

$10x+20-20= 10-20$

$10x= -10$

Divide both sides by 10

and we get

$x=-1$

so, critical values are

$x=-3$

$x=-1$

now, we can draw a number line and locate these values

and then we can check inequality on each intervals

For $(-\infty,-3)$ :

We can select any random value from this interval and plug that in inequality

and we get

we can plug x=-5

$|10\times -5+20|\leq 10$

$|-50+20|\leq 10$

$30\leq 10$

so, this is FALSE

For $[-3,-1]$ :

We can select any random value from this interval and plug that in inequality

and we get

we can plug x=-2

$|10\times -2+20|\leq 10$

$|-20+20|\leq 10$

$0\leq 10$

so, this is TRUE

For $(-1,\infty)$ :

We can select any random value from this interval and plug that in inequality

and we get

we can plug x=0

$|10\times 0+20|\leq 10$

$|0+20|\leq 10$

$20\leq 10$

so, this is FALSE

so, solution is

[-3,-1]

Alicia is a nurse.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

2% increase on 1750=

1750 * 1.02 = 1785

1785 per month gives 1785 * 12 = 21420 per year.

Divide 21420 by 48 weeks = 446.25 per week

Divide 446.25 by 45 hours = 9.92 per hour
