0.75 hours more is needed to practice to meet his goal

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Goal per week of Joel = 4\frac{1}{2} = \frac{2 \times 4 + 1}{2} = \frac{9}{2}

From given,

<em><u>The list below shows the number of hours Joel has a practiced so far for the week</u></em>

Monday = 1\frac{1}{2}\ hours = \frac{3}{2}\ hours

Wednesday = 1\frac{1}{4}\ hours = \frac{5}{4}\ hours\\\\Thursday = 1\ hour

<em><u>How many more hours does he need to practice this week to meet his goal</u></em>

Find the difference

Hours needed = Goal per week of Joel - (monday + wednesday + thursday)

Hours\ needed = \frac{9}{2} - (\frac{3}{2} + \frac{5}{4} + 1)\\\\Hours\ needed = 4.5-(1.5+1.25+1)\\\\Hours\ needed = 4.5 - 3.75 = 0.75\\\\Hours\ needed = 0.75 = \frac{3}{4}

Thus 0.75 hours more is needed to practice to meet his goal

A sales person is paid a weekly salary of $760, plus a commission of 7.5% of all her sales for the week. Express her weekly inco
Elis [28]

Answer:

1. We can see that salesperson's weekly income is the sum of her constant weekly salary ($760) and a commission which is variable and depends on her weekly sales.

So, if we say that y is her weekly income and x is her weekly sales, we can write this as:

y = 760 + 0.075x

Note that we had to change percentage to decimal number dividing it by 100.

2  Since for each value of x there is only one corresponding value of y, we can say that this is a function. For any value of x we input there is only one solution we get - that is the main feature of function and a way to tell if something is really a function.

Since this is a function, it can also be written as:

f(x) = 760 + 0.075x

3. Domain of a function is, basically, set of all values of x for which the function can work. That practically means that, since x is weekly sale, it can not be negative (one cannot make -$500 sale, for example). However, it is possible that she doesn't make a sale one week, making it possible for x to be 0. Also, the value of her sales doesn't have to be integer (it is quite possible that she makes $673.50 sale).

All this means that appropriate domain for this function are positive real numbers including 0.

Find the balance at the end of 4 years if $10,000 is deposited at a rate of 1.5% simple interest.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Principal amount (P) = $10,000

Rate (R) = 1.5%

Time (T) = 4 years

Simple interest, I = P X R X T / 100

= 10000 X 1.5 X 4 /100

= 60000 / 100

= $600

Therefore, Balance = P + I

= 10000 + 600

= $10600

A farmer Has 900 yards of fencing to enclose a rectangular pasture for her goats. Since one side of the pasture borders a river,
horsena [70]

Answer:

Length, l=450 yards

Width, b=225 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the long side be x and since the length is twice the width, then the width is half of that length hence 0.5x. Since we only have three parts to fence as one long side doesn't require fencing, then the perimeter will be given by x+0.5x+0.5x=2x=900 yards

X=900/2=450 yards for long side.

The short side is 0.5x hence 0.5*450=225 yards

In conclusion, the long side is 450 yards while short side is 225 yards.
