Jackie and Rachel both worked during last summer and made $960 each. Rachel worked 16 hours more than Jackie, but Rachel earned

Pavel [41]

Answer:

The number of hours Jackie worked = 80hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Last summer:

Jackie made $960

Rachel made $960

let number of hours Jackie worked = x

Rachel worked 16 hours more than Jackie:

Number of hours Rachel worked = x + 16

if Jackie earned $y per hour

Rachel earned $2 less per hour = y-2

Jackie: 960 = x × y = xy

Rachel: 960 = (x+16)(y-2)

960 = xy -2x +16y -32

recall xy = 960, insert the value for xy

960 = 960 - 2x +16y -32

- 2x +16y -32 = 0

2x -16y = -32

x-8y = -16

x = 8y-16

recall xy = 960, insert the expression for x

(8y-16)y = 960

8y² -16y = 960

y² -2y - 120 = 0

y²+10y-12y -120 = 0

y(y+10) -12(y+10) = 0

(y-12) = 0 or (y+10) = 0

y = 12 or -10

since y can't be negative, y = 12

x = 8y-16

x = 8(12) -16 = 80

The number of hours Jackie worked = x = 80 hours

If a 90 degree angle is a right angle, how does 360 degrees make a circle? Not for school,just for thought.

180 is a flat line and if you turn it’s not exactly a circle it seems that way but it just rotating

Mrs. Kim is teaching a 5th grade class. She is standing 48 feet in front of Lester. Carey is sitting to Lester's right. If Carey

victus00 [196]

Lester and Carey are 14 feet apart

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Kim is teaching a 5th grade class

She is standing 48 feet in front of Lester
Carey is sitting to Lester's right
Carey and Mrs. Kim are 50 feet apart

We need to find how far apart Lester and Carey

Look to the attached figure

The positions of Mrs. Kim, Lester, and Carey formed a right triangle

∵ The distance between Mrs. Kim and Carey is 50 feet

∴ The length of the hypotenuse of the Δ = 50 feet

∵ The distance between Mrs. Kim and Lester is 48 feet

∴ The length of one leg of the Δ = 48 feet

The formula of length of the sides of the right Δ is:

$(hypotenuse)^{2}=(leg_{1})^{2}+(leg_{2})^{2}$

Substitute the length of the hypotenuse and the length of the given leg in the formula above

∵ (50)² = (48)² + (leg)²

∴ 2500 = 2304 + (leg)²

- Subtract 2304 from both sides

∴ 196 = (leg)²

- Take square for both sides

∴ 14 = leg

∵ This leg represents the distance between Lester and Carey

∴ The distance between Lester and Carey = 14 feet

Lester and Carey are 14 feet apart

A bag contains six red marbles three blue marbles and five green marble the three marbles are drawn out of the bag what is the p

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Red = 6

Blue = 3

Green = 5

Total = 14

First marble = 6/14 = 3/7 You now have 5 reds and 13 total

Second Marble = 5 * 13 which brings you down to 4 red and 12 total.

Third Marble = 4/12 = 1/3

Result

P(3 Red) = 3/7 * 5/13 * 1/3 cancel the 3s

P(3 Red) = 1/7 * 5/13

P(3 Red) = 5/91

P(3 Red) = 0.0549 . Rounding to the nearest 1/100 depends on what you have been told about rounding. I would say the answer is 0.05 but your teacher may say something different.
