Options

Which statement is true:

a) Jill will make less money if they each work 4 hours.

b) Jill's hourly rate is $3 more than kara's.

c) Kara charges $14 and hour for babysitting two children.

d) Kara's fee for the second child is $5.

Answer:

(D)Kara's fee for the second child is $5.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c}$Time(hr)&$Jill: Cost for Two Children& $Kara: Cost for Two Children\\-----&------&-----\\1&11&14=9+5\\2&22&23=9(2)+5\\3&33&32=9(3)+5\end{array}\right|$

From the table above,

Jill Charges an hourly rate of $11

Kara charges an hourly rate of $9 and an additional $5 charge for more than one child. Therefore, the statement that is true is Option D.

Kara's fee for the second child is $5.

All other options are incorrect.

Check

Option A: In four hours, Jill will make $44 while Kara will make $41

Option B: Jill's hourly rate is $2 more than Kara's, NOT $3.

Option C: Kara charges $9 an hour, NOT $14.

4. Gloria the grasshopper is working on her hops.

aivan3 [116]

The path that Gloria follows when she jumped is a path of parabola.

The equation of the parabola that describes the path of her jump is $\mathbf{y = -\frac{5}{49}(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{Height = 20}$

$\mathbf{Length = 28}$

Assume she starts from the origin (0,0)

The midpoint would be:

$\mathbf{Mid = \frac 12 \times Length}$

$\mathbf{Mid = \frac 12 \times 28}$

$\mathbf{Mid = 14}$

So, the vertex of the parabola is:

$\mathbf{Vertex = (Mid,Height)}$

Express properly as:

$\mathbf{(h,k) = (14,20)}$

A point on the graph would be:

$\mathbf{(x,y) = (28,0)}$

The equation of a parabola is calculated using:

$\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}$

Substitute $\mathbf{(h,k) = (14,20)}$ in $\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}$

$\mathbf{y = a(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

Substitute $\mathbf{(x,y) = (28,0)}$ in $\mathbf{y = a(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

$\mathbf{0 = a(28 - 14)^2 + 20}$

$\mathbf{0 = a(14)^2 + 20}$

Collect like terms

$\mathbf{a(14)^2 =- 20}$

Solve for a

$\mathbf{a =- \frac{20}{14^2}}$

$\mathbf{a =- \frac{20}{196}}$

Simplify

$\mathbf{a =- \frac{5}{49}}$

Substitute $\mathbf{a =- \frac{5}{49}}$ in $\mathbf{y = a(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

$\mathbf{y = -\frac{5}{49}(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

Hence, the equation of the parabola that describes the path of her jump is $\mathbf{y = -\frac{5}{49}(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

mrs_skeptik [129]

$\frac{3x^{2}+6x}{x^{2}-2x-8} = \frac{3x(x+2)}{(x-4)(x+2)}= \frac{3x}{x-4} 
\\ \\ \frac{3x}{x-4} , x \neq 4$
