Given:
Sprayer and generator

1st Job: 6 hours each for a total of $90
2nd Job: 4 hours sprayer and 8 hours generator for a total of $100

Let x = spayer ; y = generator

6x + 6y = 90
4x + 8y = 100

6x = 90 - 6y
x = 90/6 - 6y/6
x = 15 - y

4x + 8y = 100
4(15-y) + 8y = 100
60 - 4y + 8y = 100
4y = 100 - 60
4y = 40
y = 40/4
y = 10

x = 15 - y
x = 15 - 10
x = 5

Sprayer = 5 per hour ; generator = 10 per hour

To check:
6x + 6y = 90
6(5) + 6(10) = 90
30 + 60 = 90
90 = 90

<span>4x + 8y = 100
</span>4(5) + 8(10) = 100
20 + 80 = 100
100 = 100

How do you add and subtract decimals as easily as you do whole numbers?
777dan777 [17]

If you know how to add and subtract whole numbers, then you can add and subtract decimals! Just be sure to line up the terms so that all the decimal points are in a vertical line.
To add decimal numbers:

Put the numbers in a vertical column, aligning the decimal points
Add each column of digits, starting on the right and working left. If the sum of a column is more than ten, "carry" digits to the next column on the left.
Place the decimal point in the answer directly below the decimal points in the terms.
To subtract decimal numbers:

Put the numbers in a vertical column, aligning the decimal points.
Subtract each column, starting on the right and working left. If the digit being subtracted in a column is larger than the digit above it, "borrow" a digit from the next column to the left.
Place the decimal point in the answer directly below the decimal points in the terms.
Check your answer by adding the result to the number subtracted. The sum should equal the first number.

To add these numbers, first arrange the terms vertically, aligning the decimal points in each term. Don't forget, for a whole number like the first term, the decimal point lies just to the right of the ones column. You can add zeroes to the right of the decimal point to make it easier to align the columns. Then add the columns working from the right to the left, positioning the decimal point in the answer directly under the decimal points in.

To subtract these numbers, first arrange the terms vertically, aligning the decimal points in each term. You can add zeroes to the right of the decimal point, to make it easier to align the columns. Then subtract the columns working from the right to the left, putting the decimal point in the answer directly underneath the decimal points in the terms. Check your answer by adding it to the second term and making sure it equals the first.

Evgesh-ka [11]
The last option is correct. If two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. This is probably because the sides are equal.

OK so I have two questions to answer. So the first picture is question five in the second picture is question six.
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The slope is 2.25

The y-intercept is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming from the cut off picture, that we need to find the slope of ...

y=2.25x +3

y=mx+b form makes it easy to identify the slope and the y-intercept.

m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Anything number that is in place of m, is the slope; and any nother in place of b is the y-intercept.

In that case, 2.25 is the slope and 3 is the y-intercept

A sample with which of these variances has a standard deviation that is greater than the variance?
White raven [17]
Since the standard deviation is the square root of variance. The only times where the standard deviation is greater than the variance is when the variance is between the values 0 and 1 exclusively. For example, the square root of 0.25 is 0.5.

PLEASE IM DESPERATE<br> BRAINLIEST+THANKS***
Sloan [31]

ANSWER

Option B

and

Option D.

EXPLANATION

The graph of the function has an amplitude of 2 and a period of

\frac{2\pi}{3}

Choose all the equation that has an amplitude of 2 and a period of

\frac{2\pi}{3}

These are:

y = 2 \sin3(x -  \frac{2\pi}{3} )

and

y = 2 \sin(3x)

The second and the last options are correct.
