Answer:

He did not work for 6 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam is hired for a 20-day period.

Let x be the no. of days he did not work

So, No. of days he worked = 20-x

he earns per working day = $60

So, he earns for (20-x) days = 60(20-x)

For each day that he does not work, $30 is subtracted from his earnings.

So, Amount deducted for x days = 30x

So, His earning for 20 days =60(20-x)-30x

We are given that At the end of the 20-day period, he received $660

So, 60(20-x)-30x=660

1200-60x-30x=660

1200-90x=660

1200-660=90x

540=90x

\frac{540}{90}=x

6=x

So, he did not work for 6 days

So, Option C is true

Answer:

x = 12.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of measure of all the arcs of a circle = 360°

m(arc CD) + m(arc CED) = 360°

Since, m(arc CED) = (20x)°

And m(arc CD) = (8x + 6)°

By substituting these measures in teh expression,

(20x)° + (8x + 6)° = 360°

(20x + 8x) + 6 = 360

28x = 360 - 6

28x = 354

x = \frac{354}{28}

x = 12.64

x = 12.6

compare the coefficients of the x term

--> 2a=16 --> a=8

---> x^2+16a+64=(x+8)^2
