Let number of hours needed to work = x
Multiply number of hours by rate: 15x
Add what you already have saved:
15x + 215
This needs to equal at least 800:
The equation becomes:
15x + 215 >= 800
Solve for x:
15x + 215 >= 800
Subtract 215 from both sides
15x >= 585
Divide both sides by 15
X >= 39
They have to work at least 39 hours.
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
−3x2−4x−4=0
Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=-3, b=-4, c=-4.
x=
−b±√b2−4ac
2a
x=
−(−4)±√(−4)2−4(−3)(−4)
2(−3)
x=
4±√−32
−6
Answer:
No real solutions.
The answer is No, they are not proportional. This is because 8/42 is not equal to 20/105.
