The expression which can be used to solve this problem is 5.50h + 1.5h.

Since the given data is 44.5 hour week, all we need to do is substitute the given data to the expression. Since it takes 56 hours a week for a complete office/working hour without overtime, Joel's 44.5 hour week means he did not have overtime hours. Therefore the solution is,

5.50(44.5) = 244.75 Dollars.

The graphs below are both absolute value functions. The equation of the redgraph is f(x) = |xl. Which of these is the equation o

grigory [225]

ANSWER

$\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}|x|$

EXPLANATION

We want to find the absolute value function for the line in blue.

The general form of an absolute value function is:

$y=a|x-h|+k$

where (h, k) = vertex

From the line, the vertex of the graph in blue is:

$(0,0)$

To find a, we have to pick a point (x, y) on the line and input it into the general function.

Let us pick (2, 1).

Therefore, we have:

$\begin{gathered} 1=a|2-0|+0 \\ 1=a|2|=2a \\ \Rightarrow a=\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the absolute value function is:

$\begin{gathered} y=\frac{1}{2}|x-0|+0 \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}|x| \end{gathered}$

Mark studies a group of 30 whales. If each whale weighed approximately 3.8 x 105 pounds, find the total weight of all 30 whales.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

$= 1.14 \times 10^{7}pounds$

Step-by-step explanation:

If each whales weighed

$3.8 \times {10}^{5}$

Then 30 whales weighed

$30 \times 3.8 \times {10}^{5}$

$=114 \times {10}^{5}$

$= 1.14 \times 10^{2} \times {10}^{10}$

Applying the law of indices we obtain

$= 1.14 \times 10^{(2+ 5)}$

$=1.14 \times 10^{7}pounds$
