Answer:
A: C=45h+30
B: C=$322.50
Step-by-step explanation:
A: We'll start with the equation for the total charge. Juan is saying he will pay a one time fee of $30, meaning there is 30 dollars added to what ever the hourly wage is. This can be represented by the +30. Now if "h" represents the variable for which the hourly wage will be calculated, and he pays $45 dollars per hour this will be represented as 45h. <em>As an example if I pay you 2 dollars per hour using the same variable "h", this would be represented as 2h. So if you worked for two hours you would get 4 dollars, this is proven by the fact the 2(2) (remeber im replacing the "h" with the hours you worked) obviously 2 times 2 is 4 proving my point. </em>This information will give you the equation you see above.
B: Onto solving for how much Juan will pay. Now you say youre supposed to have 9 answer but this can't be true. All you need to do is plug the hours given into "h" and solve the equation. It should look something like:
<u>C=45h+30</u>
<u>C=45(6.5)+30</u>
Im using a decimal because it should be clear 1/2=0.5
<u>C= 292.5+30</u>
45x6.5 always go with PEMDAS, we are multiplying first. Then add 292.5 plus 30
This results in the answer of:
<u>C=$322.50</u>
Answer:
2.) 7.8
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
5^2 + 6^2 = c^2
25+36 = c^2
61 = c^2
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(61) = sqrt(c^2)
7.810249676 = c
4500 tons, which by the way is very unlikely
In this question, you are given the average speed of the car(70miles per hour) and the time of car travel(4.5 hours). The information is enough to find the car travelling distance. The equation would be:
Distance traveled= average speed * duration= 70miles/h * 4.5 h= 315miles
