I thank you should time the hour to his wages. 395.595

Assuming that no overtime was factored into his wages, Alex would have gotten a gross pay of $359.60. This was done by multiplying $7.86 x 45.75 hours.

Assuming that overtime was factored into his wages, Alex would have gotten a gross pay of $382.19. This was done by figuring out how much "time and a half" is for over time. "time" = 7.86; "and a half"= 7.86/2= 3.93

Time AND a half would equal 7.86 + 3.93= 11.79.

So, Alex would get an additional $11.79 for the hours OVER 40 hours which was 5 hours and 75 minutes..

11.79 x 5.75 = 67.79

Total hours for a 40 hour work week for Alex with 7.86 would equal a gross pay of 314.40. Plus 67.79. = 382.19

Solve the following system of linear equations: 3x1+6x2+6x3 = -9 -2x1–3x2-3x3 = 3 If the system has infinitely many solutions, y

choli [55]

Answer:

The set of solutions is $\{\left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}12\\-7-r\\r\end{array}\right]: \text{r is a real number} \}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The augmented matrix of the system is $\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}3&6&6&-9\\-2&-3&-3&3\end{array}\right]$ .

We will use rows operations for find the echelon form of the matrix.

In row 2 we subtract $\frac{2}{3}$ from row 1. (R2- 2/3R1) and we obtain the matrix $\left[\begin{array}{cccc}3&6&6&-9\\0&1&1&-7\end{array}\right]$
We multiply the row 1 by $\frac{1}{3}$ .

Now we solve for the unknown variables:

$x_2+x_3=-7$ , $x_2=-7-x_3$
$x_1+2x_2+2x_3=-2$ , $x_1+2(-7-x_3)+2x_3=-2$ then $x_1=12$

The system has a free variable, the the system has infinite solutions and the set of solutions is $\{\left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}12\\-7-r\\r\end{array}\right]: \text{r is a real number} \}$

6, 1, -4, -9,...

kykrilka [37]

Texaschic nailed it when saying that it's arithmetic

The recursive way to write this is to say

$a_1 = 6$
$a_n = a_{n-1} - 5$

which tells us "start at 6 and each time subtract off 5"

The $a_n$ portion is the nth term while $a_{n-1}$ is the term just before the nth term
