The final bill is $544
The parts is a one time bill of $265
The labor is $48 per hour, and lets call the hours 'h'

So we can make the equation as:

544 = 265 + 48h

Subtract 265 n both sides

279 = 48h

Divide by 48 on both sides

h = <span>5.8125

So the number of hours of labor spent repairing the car is </span><span>5.8125.</span>

The equation would be
544 = 265 + 48x

The first step is to subtract 265 from both sides.
279 = 48x

The next step is to divide by 48 on both sides.
x=5.8125

That means that the mechanic worked for 5.8125 hours.

. Mrs. Rojas deposited $8000 into an account paying 4% interest annually. After 8 months Mrs. Rojas withdrew the $6000 plus inte

Mashcka [7]

well, keeping in mind that a year has 12 months, that means that 8 months is 8/12 of a year, when Mrs Rojas pull her money out.

$~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P(1+rt)\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$6000\\ r=rate\to 4\%\to \frac{4}{100}\dotfill &0.04\\ t=years\to \frac{8}{12}\dotfill &\frac{2}{3} \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=6000[1+(0.04)(\frac{2}{3})]\implies A=6000\left( \frac{77}{75} \right)\implies A=6160$

well, she put in 6000 bucks, got back 160 extra, that's the interest earned in the 8 months.

what if she had left her money for 1 whole year, then

$~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P(1+rt)\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$6000\\ r=rate\to 4\%\to \frac{4}{100}\dotfill &0.04\\ t=years\dotfill &1 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=6000[1+(0.04)(1)]\implies A=6240$

so had she left it in for a year, she'd have gotten 6240, namely 240 in interest, well, what fraction of a year's interest was earned? or worded differently, what fraction is 160(8 months) of 240(1 year)?

$\cfrac{\stackrel{\textit{for 8 months}}{160}}{\underset{\textit{for 12 months}}{240}}\implies \cfrac{2}{3}$

What is the median value of the data set shown on the line plot? Enter your answer in the box. A line plot with twenty-two data

Bogdan [553]

Answer: the median is 6.

Please see the picture attached.

A line plot shows the number of occurrences (crosses) of each number of a data set.

The median is the central value, the middle number, of a data set ordered from least to greatest. When there are two middle numbers, the median will be the mean between the two.

In order to find the median, look at the line plot: count how many values you have (22), then add 1 (23) and divide by two (11.5). Since we have an even number of values, we will have two middle numbers, which will be in the eleventh and twelfth position.

Count the crosses from the left, the eleventh and twelfth crosses both correspond to the number 6, therefore the median is 6.

You can also write all the numbers in increasing order and divide them into two equal groups:
1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6 | 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 11

The median will be the average between the two central numbers, therefore 6 (again).

A line is shown in the graph below.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

This means that if a line is perpendicular to a line that has slope m, then the slope of the line is -1 / m. For example, we found that the slope of the line y = (1/2)x + 3 is 1/2. This is why any line that is perpendicular to this line would have slope -2 /1 = -2.

Robert went to the grocery store and purchased cans of soup and frozen dinners. each can of soup has 300 mg of sodium and each f

Paraphin [41]

There are 9 cans of soup and 5 cans of frozen dinner.

The variables used for soup and frozen dinner are x and y respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Soup = x

Frozen Dinner = y

According to given statement of sodium;

300x + 500y = 5200 eqn 1

And,

x + y = 14 eqn 2

$Multiplying\ equation\ 2\ with\ 300\\300(x+y=14)\\300x+300y=4200\ Eqn 3\\$

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 1;

$(300x+500y)-(300x+300y)=5200-4200\\300x+500y-300x-300y=1000\\200y=1000\\y=\frac{1000}{200} \\y=5$

Putting value of y in Eqn 1;

$300x+500(5)=5200\\300x+2500=5200\\\\Subtracting\ 2500\ from\ both\ sides\ \\300x+2500-2500=5200-2500\\300x=2700\\x=\frac{2700}{300} \\x=9$

There are 9 cans of soup and 5 cans of frozen dinner.

The variables used for soup and frozen dinner are x and y respectively.
