Two architects bid for a small government project, both
blondinia [14]

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the total number of hours

Amazing design total charge = 45x+250

super structures total charge = 60x+100

both companies charge the same amount when both equation equals

45x+250=60x+100

60x-45x=250-100

15x=150

x=10

therefore at 10 hours both companies will charge the same amount

There must be more than 4 campers in a group during free play and the difference between the number of boys, x, and the number o
Hoochie [10]
Answer:
The graph in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> the number of boys
y -----> the number of girls

----->inequality A
The solution of the inequality A is the shaded area above the solid line
The slope of the solid line is positive
The y-intercept of the solid line is (0,-5)
The x-intercept of the solid line is (5,0)
-----> equation B
The solution of the inequality B is the shaded area above the dashed line
The slope of the dashed line is negative
The y-intercept of the solid line is (0,4)
The x-intercept of the solid line is (4,0)
using a graphing tool
the solution of the system of inequalities is the shaded area between the solid line and the dashed line
see the attached figure

214 people used a public swimming pool. $1.50 for kids and $2.25 for adults. The receipt totaled to $390 How many children and h
zysi [14]

Answer:the number of kids that used the public pool that day is 122

the number of adults that used the public pool that day is 92

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of kids that used the public pool that day.

Let y represent the number of adults that used the public pool that day.

214 people used a public swimming pool. This means that

x + y = 214

1.50 for kids and $2.25 for adults. The receipt totaled to $390. This means that

1.5x + 2.25y = 390 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 214 - y into equation 1, it becomes

1.5x

1.5(214 - y) + 2.25y = 390

321 - 1.5y + 2.25y = 390

- 1.5y + 2.25y = 390 - 321

0.75y = 69

y = 69/0.75 = 92

Substituting y = 92 into x = 214 - y, it becomes

x = 214 - 92 = 122

How does multiplying a vector by a scalar value of 2x change the vector?
GalinKa [24]
Recall that the direction of a vector can be seen from its slope, namely b/a.

let's take a peek at a couple of vectors, and multiply them by a scalar of 2.

hmmm say < 3 , 7 > , it has a slope of 7/3, now if we use a scalar of 2

2<3,7> => < 6 , 14 >, now, the slope of that is 14/6 which simplifies to, yeap, you guessed it, to 7/3, no change in the slope.

and say hmmmm < 11 , -2 >, slope of -2/11, let's multiply it by 2

2<11,-2> => <22 , -4 >, slope is -4/22 which simplifies to -2/11.

so, the vector's magnitude gets blown up, but the slope remains the same.
