r plus $30 for supplies. The equations give the total cost for x hours of work for each painter. For how many hours of work are Otis's and Shireen's costs equal? What is the cost for this number of hours? Y= 45x + 75 - Otis Y= 55x + 30 - Shireen​

Step-by-step explanation:

you should only make one equation:

75 + 45x = 30 + 55x

subtract the 30 frim both sides, then subtract 45x from both sides. you are left with:

45 = 10x

Divide by 10 and get:

4.5 = x

After 4.5 hours, the cost is equal for either worker.

Answer:

The cost will be equal at 4.5 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Otis paints the interior of a home for $45 per hour plus $ 75. Shireen paints the interior of a home for $ 55 per hour plus $30.

The total cost Y of Otis and Shireen's  for x hours are

Y= 45x + 75

Y= 55x + 30

For the cost to be equal

45x + 75  =  55x + 30

collect like terms

75 - 30 = 55x - 45x

45 = 10x

divide both sides by 10

x = 45/10

x = 4.5 hrs

The cost will be equal at 4.5 hrs

Divide x^3-3x^2-10x+24 by x-1
lesya [120]

Answer:

x^2 - 2x - 12 with remainder 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Synthetic division is the fastest way in which to carry out this division.

The divisor (x - 1) from long division corresponds to the divisor 1 in synthetic division.  Setting up synthetic division, we get:

1     /      1     -3     -10     24

                     1      -2     -12

      --------------------------------

             1      -2     -12      12

The first three digits {1, -2, -12} are the coefficients of the quotient, and 12 represents the remainder:

The quotient is 1x^2 - 2x - 12 and the remainder is 12.
