Answer: $1,540

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following amount charged by a worker :

First 45 hours = $14 per hour

time and half for the next 10 hours

Double time for all hours after that:

If he worked for 80 hours :

First 45 hours = (45 × $14) = $630

Next 10 hours:

Time and half for 10 hours is equivalent to (10 × 1.5) = 15 hours

(15 × $14) = $210

Double time for all subsequent hours :

80 - (45 + 10) = 80 - 55 = 25

Double time : (2 × 25) = 50 hours

(50 × 14) = $700

Hence, total amount earned :

($630 + $210 + $700)

= $1,540

How would you use the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to determine the value(s) of b if the area under the graph g(x)=4x between
-BARSIC- [3]
The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus regarding geometry states that 
\int\limits^b_a g{(x)} \, dx = F(b)-F(a)

Where F is the indefinite integral of g(x)

The first step is to integrate g(x)
\int\ {4x} \, dx = \frac{4x^{1+1} }{1+1} = \frac{4x^{2} }{2} =2 x^{2}

Then substitute the value of b and a=1 into 2x^{2}

[2 (b)^{2}]-[2 (1)^{2}] = 240
2b^{2} -2=240
2b^{2}=240+2
2b^{2}=242
b^{2}= \frac{242}{2}
b^{2}=121
b=11

Hence the limit of the area under g(x) is between a=1 and b=11

For some value of x, the expression 2x - 3 is equal to 11. Without solving for x, determine the value of the following expressio
marishachu [46]
2x - 3 = 11
2x = 14
x = 7

Using this value, The answers would be the following:
A. 23/21 (assuming you are dividing 2 by 3x; if you multiplied 2/3 by x, the answer would then be 17/3) 

B. 21/2
