<span>Answer: Roma Sherry drove 330 miles from her hometown to Tucson. During her return trip, she was able to increase her speed by 11 mph. If her return trip took 1 hour less time, find her original speed and her speed returning home. : Let s = original speed then (s+11) = return speed : Write a time equation: Time = distance%2Fspeed : Original time = return time + 1 hr 330%2Fs = 330%2F%28%28s%2B11%29%29 + 1 : Multiply equation by s(s+11) and you have: 330(s+11) = 330s + s(s+11) : 330s + 3630 = 330s + s^2 + 11s : 0 = 330s - 330s + s^2 + 11s - 3630 : A quadratic equation: s^2 + 11s - 3630 = 0 Factor this to: (s + 66)(s - 55) = 0 Positive solution s = 55 mph is original speed. : Find the time 330/55 = 6 hr, original time and 330/66 = 5 hrs, faster time; confirms our solution.</span>

Ruth works at a farmer's market and gets paid $50. she also gets paid $0.65 for each jar of jelly "j" she sells. which equation
34kurt

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ruth's salary is s(j), where s represents salary and j the number of jars she sells.

At the very beginning, she receives $50.  Only answer 'd' could be correct.

But also, the equation has the variable part 0.65j, or

$0.65j, which is directly proportional to the unit price of the jars of jelly.

*

Summing up the fixed and variable parts, we get

s = $50 + ($0.65j), or s = $50 + ($0.65/jar)j    This is Answer D.

How to round in math im confused
Nastasia [14]
If the number you are rounding is 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, it goes to ten. If the numbers are 4, 3, 2, or 1, then round down. For example,, 37 is rounded to 40. 34 is rounded to 30.
