Carlos and Mike earn same amount for 10 hours of part time work

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "x" be the number of hours worked by Carlos and mike

Given that,

<em><u>Carlos earns $7.25 per hour plus a $10 bonus</u></em>

Thus, total amount earned by Carlos for "x" hours is given by:

total earned = 7.25(number of hours) + $ 10

total earned = 7.25x + 10 ----- eqn 1

<em><u>Mike earns $7.75 per hour plus a $5 bonus</u></em>

Thus, total amount earned by Mike for "x" hours is given by:

total earned = 7.75(number of hours) + $ 5

total earned = 7.75x + 5 ------- eqn 2

To find number of hours, they earn same amount, equate eqn 1 and eqn 2

7.25x + 10 = 7.75x + 5

7.75x - 7.25x = 10 - 5

0.5x = 5

x = 10

Thus for 10 hours, they earn the same amount

What are the coordinates of point B on \overline{AC} such that AB = 1/2 BC
marta [7]

Answer:

C. B(x,y) = \left(3,-\frac{16}{3} \right)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A(x,y) = (6,-7), B(x,y) = (x,y) and C(x,y) = (-3,-2). From statement we know that AB = \frac{1}{2}\cdot BC, which is equivalent to the following linear algebraic formula:

B(x,y) -A(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot [C(x,y)-B(x,y)] (1)

B(x,y)-A(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot C(x,y)-\frac{1}{2}\cdot B(x,y)

\frac{3}{2}\cdot B(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot C(x,y)+A(x,y)

B(x,y) = \frac{1}{3}\cdot C(x,y) +\frac{2}{3}\cdot A(x,y) (2)

Then, the coordinates of point B on AC are:

B(x,y) = \frac{1}{3}\cdot (-3,-2)+\frac{2}{3}\cdot (6,-7)

B(x,y) = \left(-1, -\frac{2}{3}\right)+\left(4, -\frac{14}{3} \right)

B(x,y) = \left(3,-\frac{16}{3} \right)

Which means that correct answer is C.

The ratio of change in angular position to change in time is defined as the angular velocity. Thus, the slope of an angular position versus time graph gives the angular velocity of the <span>object being graphed.
The rank of the given graphs can be written as follow,positive graphs are listed first.
The line B is the line with the greater positive slope.
</span><span>The line B is the line with  positive slope but is less than the slope of line B.
</span><span>The lines A,t ,and F are the lines with the zero slope.
</span>The lines D and E are parallel to each other and have same negative slope.<span />
