Frank and Gertrude mow lawns for extra money over the summer. Frank's income is determined by f(x) = 5x + 15, where x is the num

ber of hours. Gertrude's income is g(x) = 4x + 20. If Frank and Gertrude were to combine their efforts, their income would be h(x) = f(x) + g(x). Create the new function h(x). If Frank works 4 hours and Gertrude works 4 hours, and if they each get half of the money when they work together, will Frank make more money working alone or by teaming with Gertrude?

H(x)=5x+15+4x+20

if x=4, together it would be 5(4)+15+4(4)+20
h(x)=20+15+16+20=71
Divided by 2, they'd each get 35.5

If Frank worked alone, he'd get 5(4)+15= 35
He'd make more working together.

What is the approximate value of x in the diagram below? (Hint: You will need
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

B. 39.59

Step-by-step explanation:

So 43 degrees, you know the length of the opposite side (27) and the angle (43 degrees), the only unknown is the hypotenuse. So you're looking for a trigonometric ratio that uses the angle (all of them do, except technically the inverse don't), the opposite side, and the hypotenuse. Sine is defined as \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}. So let's plug in known values:

sin(43) = \frac{27}{x}

Multiply both sides by x

sin(43) * x = 27

divide both sides by sin(43)

x=\frac{27}{sin(43)}

Normally I would use a calculator, but in this case I'll use the approximation given in the problem of 0.682

x=\frac{27}{0.682}

simplify the fraction

x\approx39.59
