Answer:

<u>The number of associates = 6  and the number of partners = 4</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of associates = x

let the number of partners  = y

The law firm assigned a total of 10 lawyers

∴ x + y = 10

∴ y = 10 - x ⇒ (1)

$8000 per day charged for these lawyers, The daily rate charged to the client for each associate is $600 and the daily rate for each partner is $1100.

∴ 600x + 1100 y = 8000 ⇒ (2)

By substitute from (1) at (2)

600 x + 1100 (10 - x) = 8000

solve for x

600 x + 11000 - 1100 x = 8000

-500 x = -3000

x = -3000/-500 = 6

At (1) to find y

y = 10 - 6 = 4

<u>So, the number of associates = 6  and the number of partners = 4</u>

None of the offered choices is correct.

The radical cannot be simplified. If rewritten, it must be written as something like
x \sqrt[3]{ \frac{6}{x}}
or
\frac{6x}{ \sqrt[3]{36x}}

The simplified form of -6.3x+14 and 1.5x-6 is -4.8x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to simplify the following

-6.3x+14 and 1.5x-6

it can be written as:

=(-6.3x+14) + (1.5x-6)

Adding the like terms

=(-6.3x+1.5x)+(14-6)

= (-4.8x)+(8)

= -4.8x+8

So, the simplified form of -6.3x+14 and 1.5x-6 is -4.8x+8

What is a fraction of a fraction
Vikentia [17]
<h3> - - - - - - - - - - - - - ~<u>Hello There</u>!~ - - - - - - - - - - - - - </h3>

➷ When it comes to dividing fractions, there is a rule you must now.

It's called Keep Flip Change.

I'll give you an example:

\frac{2}{7} / \frac{4}{6}

Keep the first fraction exactly as it is

Flip the second fraction upside down (switch the numerator and denominator around)

Change the sign to a multiplication.

This is how it should look:

\frac{2}{7} *\frac{6}{4}

Now you just multiply them as you normally would to get an answer of:

\frac{12}{28}

➶Hope This Helps You!

➶Good Luck :)

➶Have A Great Day ^-^
