Given: 

Let t = number of hours worked
Let p = money in the paycheck

And the relationship between the two variables varies DIRECTLY, thus they are equated with one another. 

Well anyway, you can write this simple equation for their relationship:

16t=124p

Then you derive if you want to get the number of hours or the amount paid:

1) 16t/16= 124p
t = 124p/16
t=7.75p

or 

2) 124p=16t
124p/124= 16t/124
p = 0.129t

Answer:

p=7.75t

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the amount of a persons paycheck p varies directly with the numbers of hours worked t.

Since we know that the equation for direct variation is in form: y=kx, where, k represents the constant of variation.

We are also told that for 16 hours of work, the paycheck is $124.00. We can represent our given information as:

p=k*t

Upon substituting p=124 and t=16 in directly proportional equation we will get,

124=k*16

Let us divide both sides of our equation by 16 to solve for k.

\frac{124}{16}=\frac{k*16}{16}

7.75=k

Upon substituting the value of constant of variation in our equation we will get,

p=7.75t

Therefore, the equation p=7.75t represents the relationship between hours of work and pay.

What number equals 100 when squared?
vfiekz [6]

Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation: Remember that squaring a number is multiplying a number by itself. 100 = 10² because 10 x 10 = 100.

write and equation of the line parallel to the line  2 x + 4 y = 20 2 x + 4 y = 20 and containing the point  ( −
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

m represents the slope of the line

c represents the y intercept

The equation of the given line is

2x + 4y = 20

4y = - 2x + 20

Dividing through by 4, it becomes

y = - x/2 + 5

Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = - 1/2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 6, 3) is - 1/2

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute m = - 1/2, x = - 6 and y = 3 into y = mx + c. It becomes

3 = - 1/2 × - 6 + c

3 = 3 + c

c = 3 - 3 = 0

The equation becomes

y = - x/2

Can someone solve these please using the formula AB | a - b |<br><br> And can you show work
Lana71 [14]

Answer: 1) AC = 13

The formua does not actually apply to all of the problems.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The absolute value of -8 is added to the absolute value of 5. 8+5=13

2) Subtract the length of the EF from EG to get the length of FG 21 -6 = 15

3) Take what's given and create an equation to solve. 4x + 15 +39 =110. 4x = 110 - (15+39).

4x =110-54. 4x =56. x=56/4. x=14

4) Create another equation. You have two segments that add up to the length of EG, given =23

EF+FG=EG

(2x-12)+(3x-15)=23

5x - 27 = 23

5x= 23+27 5x =50. x = 10

Substitute 10 for x

EF=2(10) -12 EF=8

FG=3(10)-15. FG=15

EF+FG =EG.

8 + 15 = 23

5) 2/5 of 25 is 10 So EF is 10. Subtract from 25 to get FG

FG = 15

I hope this helps you.
