Answer:
$3 for Syd and $5 for Mark
Step-by-step explanation:
when Mark worked 8 hours and Syd worked 10 hours they earned $80
when Mark worked 9h Syd worked 5h they earned $65
we can make a equation out of these information
8M + 10S = $80
9M + 5S = $65 we can use the systems of equations by eliminating method
multiply second equation by -2
-2 × (9M + 5S) = $65
-18M - 10S = -$130 now add up the new equation with the first one
8M + 10S - 18M - 10S = $80 - $130 (10S will eliminate -10S)
-10M = -$50
10M = $50
M = $5
we can use hourly rate we found for M (Mark) to find the hourly rate for S (Syd)
9×5 + 5S = $65
45 + 5S = $65
5S = $15
S = $3
They're not equivalent.
(vertical bars) represents the absolute value of x. How it works is that it turns negative numbers positive but leaves 0 and positive numbers alone (hence it gets a number's distance from 0 on the number line).
(square brackets) usually represents the floor function, which returns the largest integer that is less than or equal to x. (The floor of x can also be written as
--- it depends on what your textbook/source says).
To solve
, you first transform it into the equivalent equation
. Then by definition of absolute value, there are only two solutions for the first equation: x = 10 or x = -10.
[x] = 10 has infinitely many solutions. For example, the floor of 10 is 10, so
, thus a solution for the second equation is x = 10
The floor of 10.1 is 10, so
, thus another solution for the second equation is x = 10.1.
The two equations do not have the same solution set (as x = 10.1 does not solve |x| - 3 = 7 but solves [x] = 10), so they're not equivalent.
Answer:
4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to divide that 200 ft among those 50 sections to get what amount of feet goes into each section.
Answer:
D. (-5,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
1st reflection = reflection across the line k with the rule:
(x,y)→(-y,-x)
So,
(2,5)→(-5,-2)
2nd reflection = reflection across the x-axis with the rule
(x,y)→(x,-y)
So,
(-5,-2)→(-5,2)
After two consecutive reflections
(2,5)→(5,2)
