Step-by-step explanation:

 This problem expects us to model the equation for the total cost of the services of the plumber given the conditions stated.

Say the fixed amount charged for coming to your house is $10

say the fix amount charged per is $3

and the time spent to do the job is X

Hence the scenario can be modeled as

Y= 3x+10

the equation is similar to the equation of a straight line

Y= mx+c

Twelve years ago, Jane was five times as old as Anne. In three years' time, Anne will be half Jane's
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Jane: 37 years old

Anne: 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Jane 12 years ago: 5x

Anne 12 years ago: x

In three years into the future:

Jane: 5x+15

Anne: x+15

CURRENT TIME:

Jane: 5x+12

Anne: x+12

Equation (using 3 years into the future ages): 5x+15=2(x+15)

5x+15=2x+30

(subtract 15 from both sides)

5x=2x+15

3x=15

x=5

Therefore, Jane is 37 years old and Anne is 17 years old.

1. A certain ceiling is made up of tiles. Every square meter of ceiling requires 10.75 tiles. Fill in the table with the missing
dybincka [34]

Given:

Consider the below table attached with this question.

Every square meter of ceiling requires 10.75 tiles.

To find:

The missing values in the table.

Solution:

We have,

1 square meter of ceiling =  10.75 tiles.      ...(i)

Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to 1 square meter of ceiling is 10.75.

Multiply both sides by 10.

10×1 square meter of ceiling =  10×10.75 tiles.

10 square meter of ceiling =  107.5 tiles.

Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to 10 square meter of ceiling is 107.5.

Divide both sides by 10.75 in (i).

\dfrac{1}{10.75} square meter of ceiling = 1 tile.

Multiply both sides by 100.

\dfrac{100}{10.75} square meter of ceiling = 100 tiles.

On approximating the value, we get

9.3 square meter of ceiling = 100 tiles.

Therefore, the square meters of ceiling corresponding to 100 tiles is about 9.3.

Multiply both sides by a in (i).

a×1 square meter of ceiling =  a×10.75 tiles.

a square meter of ceiling =  10.75a tiles.

Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to a square meter of ceiling is 10.75a.
