David keeps records of his monthly earnings. Last month he worked 120 hours and earned $2700. This month he worked 100 hours and

earned $2300. Which equation could you use to find f(x), the amount he would earn at this rate if he worked x hours?
f(x)=120x+400

f(x)=400x

f(x)=100x+300

f(x)=20x+300

and tell me why it's the answer.... please. ^-^"

F(x) = 20x+300
you sub in the x values (120 hours and 100 hours) for each equation
the only one they both work for is the last one
f(x) = 20x + 300
f(100) = (20 * 100) + 300 = 2000 + 300 = 2300

f(120) = (20 * 120) + 300 = 2400 + 300 = 2700

Substitute x in the equations for numbers of hours worked, and you should look for the one that gets the right amount of money.

If you use 120 hours, you should look for the equation that gives you the answer of 2700:

f(x)=120x+400
120(120) + 400 =14800

f(x)=400x
400(120) = 48000

f(x)=100x+300
100(120) + 300 =12300

<span>f(x)=20x+300
</span>20(120) + 300 = 2700

Just to check, use the other number of hours: 100 hours.. You should expect to see an answer of 2300:
f(x)=20x+300
20(100) + 300 = 2300

the equation you want is f(x)=20x+300

On a beach trip, Lucy rents a bike from “Wheels by the Waves”, where they rent bikes for $12 plus $3 per hour. If Lucy spent $30
Paul [167]

Answer: 6 hours

Step-by-step explanation: If you write an equation for this scenario it would be y = 12+3x. 12 is the starting value and x represents how many hours the bike is rented, therefore 3 dollars would be added to the initial 12 each hour. So if Lucy spent $30 then it would change to 30= 12+3x. Now you essentially just need to work backwards. Rearrange the equation and move 12 to the left of the equal sign to make 30-12=3x. Combine vairable to make 18=3x. Divide 3x by 3 to isolate x and divide 18 by 3 as well to make it even. This looks like 18/3=3x/3. Meaning it would end up as 6=x.

Two lines, A and B, are represented by the equations given below:
SashulF [63]
Given:
Line A: 2x +  2y = 8
Line B:    x + y = 4

x = 4 - y
2(4-y) + 2y = 8
8 - 2y + 2y = 0
0 = -8

y = 4 - x
2x + 2(4-x) = 8
2x + 8 - 2x = 8
0 = 0

There is no solution.

Find the area pls- i need help
Tresset [83]

Answer:

1. 36 sq un

2. 40 sq un

3. 20 sq un

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer for number one is 36 square units because the rectangular area is 24 sq un and the triangular area is 12 sq un so I added them to get 36 sq un. The second answer is 40 sq un because if you cut the shape into 2 shapes you get 2 equal trapezoids. Each trapezoid is 20 sq un so I multiplied it by two to get 40 sq un. The third answer is 20 because the side triangles are 2 sq un each and the square on the bottom is 16 sq un. By the way, sq un means square units lol.
