Answer:

<em>22=\frac{350+12x}{x}</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Samantha's weekly paycheck is $350 and she earns $12 in tips each hour. So, 12x represents the amount she earns in tips for working x hours. To find the total amount Samantha earns after working x hours, add the amount of her weekly paycheck and her amount earned in tips.

350+12x

Next, to find Samantha's average hourly earnings over the course of a week, divide the total amount that she earns in a week by the number of hours that she works, x.

\frac{350+12x}{x}

It is given that the average amount earned per hour for one particular week was $22. Therefore, set the above expression equal to 22 in order to create the rational equation that can be used to determine the number of hours Samantha worked that week.

22=\frac{350+12x}{x}

Answer:(350+12x)/x

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find the amount of money Samantha can earn throughout the week. This is represented by 12x+350

Then, divide that by the number of hours worked in a week (x).

Then, set it equal to 22 (the average hours worked).

Answer:

B) 3.2 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The midpoints: midpoint formula = <em>((x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁+ y₂)/2)</em>

upper = ((6 + -4)/2, (8 + 0)/2) --><em> (1, 4)</em>

lower = ((-8 + 2)/2, (3 + -5)/2) --><em> (-3, -1)</em>

2. Distance: distance formula = <em>√((x₁ - x₂)² + (y₁ - y₂)²)</em>

√((1 + 3)² + (4 + 1)²) = √(16 + 25) = √41 ≈ 6.403... ≈ <em>6.4</em>

3. Scale: 6.4 * 0.5 mi = 3.2 mi
