Income Vincent earns $15 per hour during the week and $18 per hour for overtime

Step-by-step explanation:

1) let's say X will be next to our 15 dollars and y next to 18 dollars

15x + 18y = 252

it also tells us that the weekdays is 3 times as many hours as y. In other words:

x = 3y

2) As the question asks for the number of weekend hours, let's solve for y.

Here, it's easier to just substitute x in the original equation. If you put 3y as a replacement of x, the equation becomes:

(15*3y) + 18y = 252

expand to:

45y + 18y = 252

add on

63y = 252

divide both by 13

y=4

Therefore Vincent works 4 hours on the weekend so during the weeks he works 20 hours

Answer:

They should purchase the snack with the purple box. This is the answer for 23, i don't know what 24 is sorry.

Step-by-step explanation:

24÷3=8

8×5=40

so the first snacks would cost them $40.

then:

24÷4=6

6×6=36

so the second snacks would cost them $36

Amy is pulling a wagon with a force of 30 pounds up a hill at an angle of 25°. Give the force exerted on the wagon as a vector a

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Vector (ordered pair - rectangular form)

$\vec F = (27.189,12.679)\,[lbf]$

Vector (ordered pair - polar form)

$\vec F = (30\,lbf, 25^{\circ})$

Sum of vectorial components (linear combination)

$\vec F = 27.189\cdot \hat{i} + 12.679\cdot \hat{j}\,[N]$

Step-by-step explanation:

From statement we know that force exerted on the wagon has a magnitude of 30 pounds-force and an angle of 25° above the horizontal, which corresponds to the +x semiaxis, whereas the vertical is represented by the +y semiaxis.

The force ( $\vec F$ ), in pounds-force, can be modelled in two forms:

Vector (ordered pair - rectangular form)

$\vec F = \left(\|\vec F\|\cdot \cos \theta, \|\vec F\|\cdot \sin \theta\right)$ (1)

Vector (ordered pair - polar form)

$\vec F = \left(\|\vec F\|, \theta\right)$

Sum of vectorial components (linear combination)

$\vec {F} = \left(\|\vec F\|\cdot \cos \theta\right)\cdot \hat{i} + \left(\|\vec F\|\cdot \sin \theta \right)\cdot \hat{j}$ (2)

Where:

$\|\vec F\|$ - Norm of the vector force, in newtons.

$\theta$ - Direction of the vector force with regard to the horizontal, in sexagesimal degrees.

$\hat{i}$ , $\hat{j}$ - Orthogonal axes, no unit.

If we know that $\|\vec F\| = 30\,lbf$ and $\theta = 25^{\circ}$ , then the force exerted on the wagon is:

Vector (ordered pair - rectangular form)

$\vec F= \left(30\cdot \cos 25^{\circ}, 30\cdot \sin 25^{\circ}\right)\,[lbf]$

$\vec F = (27.189,12.679)\,[lbf]$

Vector (ordered pair - polar form)

$\vec F = (30\,lbf, 25^{\circ})$

Sum of vectorial components (linear combination)

$\vec F = (30\cdot \cos 25^{\circ})\cdot \hat{i} + (30\cdot \sin 25^{\circ})\cdot \hat{j}\,[N]$

$\vec F = 27.189\cdot \hat{i} + 12.679\cdot \hat{j}\,[N]$
