The total cost is given by the equation:
C(t) = 45 + 25(h-1) where h is the number of hours worked.

We can check for each option in turn:

Option A:

Inequality 5 < x ≤ 6 means the hour is between 5 hours (not inclusive) to 6 hours (inclusive)
Let's take the number of hours = 5
C(5) = 45 + (5-1)×25 = 145
Let's take the number of hours = 6
Then substitute into C(6) = 45 + (6-1)×25 = 170
We can't take 145 because the value '5' was not inclusive.


Option B:
The inequality is 6 < x ≤ 7
We take number of hours = 6
C(6) = 25(6-1) + 45 = 170
We take number of hours = 7
Then C(7) = 25(7-1) + 45 = 195

Option C:
The inequality is 5 < x ≤ 6
Take the number of hours = 5
C(5) = 25(5-1) + 45 = 145
Take the number of hours = 6
C(6) = 25(6-1) + 45 = 170
We can't take the value 145 as '5' was not inclusive in the range, but we can take 170

Option D:
6 < x ≤ 7
25(6-1) + 45 < C(t) ≤ 25(7-1) + 45
170 < C(t) ≤ 195

Correct answer: C

A bag contains yellow marbles and blue marbles, 37 in total. The number of yellow marbles is 7 more than 5 times the number of b
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

let b represent the number of blue marbles then

yellow = 5b + 7 and

b + 5b + 7 = 37, that is

6b + 7 = 37 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

6b = 30 ( divide both sides by 6 )

b = 5

Thus there are 5 blue and 5(5) + 7 = 25 + 7 = 32 yellow marbles

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sharon is conducting research on two species of birds at a bird sanctuary.

The number of birds of species A is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

S=2^x+12

The number of birds of species B is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

S=15x+35

To plot the above function, first find points by which they are passing.

For species A, At x=0 , S=1+12=13

At x=2 , S=2+12=14

Similarly find more points and plot curve on graph.

For species A, At x=0 , S=0+35=35

At x=2 , S=15+35=50

Plot a line with the help of these two points.

Now, from the graph the intersection of curve (for A) and line (for B) is at (7,140) which tells that After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.

What is the circumternence
AfilCa [17]
Circumference of a circle is the distance around the circle. This can be found by using the equation below

2*pi*radius

Our diameter, as shown, is 9cm. Since radius is half of the diameter, our radius is 4.5cm.

Therefore, our circumference is...

2 * pi * 4.5 = 9pi cm total
