Answer:

Michael worked for 5.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money earned = $74.25  

Money Earned in tips = $38.50

Cost per hour = $6.50

Let number of hours he worked be x.

We need to find total hours he worked.

It can be find by;

Total money he earned is equal to Cost per hour multiplied by number of hours he worked plus money earned in tips.

Hence;

Cost per hour × number of hours he worked + Money Earned in tips = Total money earned

Computing in mathematical form we get;

6.5x+38.50 = 74.25\\6.5x = 74.25-38.50\\6.5x=35.75\\\\x= \frac{35.75}{6.5} =5.5

Hence Micheal worked for 5.5 hours.

Tom has a 10 gallon fish tank that he wants to fill with neon tetra
skelet666 [1.2K]

The equation representing the minimum and maximum number of fishes which would fit into the tank is : 5 ≤ x ≤ 9

From the table given ;

  • Method 2 will allow the maximum number of fish = 9
  • Method 1 will allow the minimum number of fish = 5

To represent the maximum and minimum number of fish that will fit into the tank;

We could use an inequality expression to represent these range :

Let x represent the Number of fishes that would fit into the tank :

  • Minimum ≤ x ≤ maximum

Therefore, the equation can be written thus :

  • 5 ≤ x ≤ 9

Given the points below, find XY. Round to the nearest hundredth.<br> X(-8,4) and Y (4, -6)
stepan [7]

Answer:

  15.62

Step-by-step explanation:

The length XY is found from the distance formula:

  d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)²)

  d = √((4 -(-8))² +(-6 -4)²) = √(12² +(-10)²) = √244

  d ≈ 15.62 . . . units

The length of XY is approximately 15.62 units.

A group of college students are going to a lake house for the weekend and plan on renting small cars and large cars to make the
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The students rented 3 small cars and 6 large cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a group of college students are going to a lake house for the weekend and plan on renting small cars and large cars to make the trip, and each small car can hold 4 people and each large car can hold 6 people, and the students rented twice as many large cars as small cars, which altogether can hold 48 people, to determine the number of small cars rented, X, and the number of large cars rented, Y, the following calculation must be performed:

4X + 6Y = 48

4x4 + 6x8 = 16 + 48 = 64

4x3 + 6x6 = 12 + 36 = 48

Thus, the students rented 3 small cars and 6 large cars.
