Niall owes $187 to his cousin. However, he doesn't have any money right now. He hopes to earn some money by painting a house. He

gets paid $34 for every 2 hours he paints. Which equation of a line models y, the amount of money he will have after paying back his cousin, in terms of x, the number of hours he spends painting?

The equation would be 34 x 2x-187= y.

Answer:

y=17x-187 where x>11

Step-by-step explanation:

Niall gets $34 for 2 hours.

So, he gets 34/2=17 dollars per hour.

Now he owes $187 to his cousin.

Let the number of hours he works be = x

Let the money left with him after paying his cousin be = y

So, the equation forms:

y=17x-187

Rather we can say it is :

y=17x-187 where x>11

If we want to know how many hours are needed to pay the debt, we can consider y = 0

17x-187=0

17x=187

x=187/17

So, x = 11 hours

He needs 11 hours of work to pay back his cousin and after that all his earnings is 'y'. When x>11 then 'y' will have some money left.

I need help, i have a quiz on it soon.
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

okay

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary angles are angles that add up to 90 degrees

so what you would do is take each number that you have and subtract it from 90

In the first one you would

1. take 90-80

2. you get your answer of 10!

i hope this helps :)

today a boat valued at $45,000.Thebvalue is expected to decrease at a rate of 8.5% each year.What is the value of the boat expec
Stels [109]

Current value of the boat = $45000

Rate at which the value decrease = 8.5%

Value decreased after 1 year = \frac{8.5}{100}\times45000=3825

Hence, value becomes = 45000-3825=41175

Value decreased after 2nd year =

\frac{8.5}{100}\times41175=3499.875

Hence, value becomes = 41175-3499.875=37675.125

Value decreased after 3 year =

\frac{8.5}{100}\times37675.125=3202.385

Hence, value becomes = 37675.125-3202.385=34472.74

So, value of the boat after 3 years becomes $34472.74

How do you find the center of dilation for a negetive dilation?​
Andrei [34K]

the Answer:

Notice that the "image" triangles are on the opposite side of the center of the dilation (vertices are on opposite side of O from the preimage). Also, notice that the triangles have been rotated 180º.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original but is a different size. The description of a dilation includes the scale factor (constant of dilation) and the center of the dilation. The center of dilation is a fixed point in the plane about which all points are expanded or contracted. The center is the only invariant (not changing) point under a dilation (k ≠1), and may be located inside, outside, or on a figure.

Note:

A dilation is NOT referred to as a rigid transformation (or isometry) because the image is NOT necessarily the same size as the pre-image (and rigid transformations preserve length).

What happens when scale factor k is a negative value?

If the value of scale factor k is negative, the dilation takes place in the opposite direction from the center of dilation on the same straight line containing the center and the pre-image point. (This "opposite" placement may be referred to as being a " directed segment" since it has the property of being located in a specific "direction" in relation to the center of dilation.)

Let's see how a negative dilation affects a triangle:

Notice that the "image" triangles are on the opposite side of the center of the dilation (vertices are on opposite side of O from the preimage). Also, notice that the triangles have been rotated 180º.

Find the value of k given that the line through (k,2) and (7,0) is perpendicular to the line y=x-28/5
Tanzania [10]
Y = x - 28/5. The slope here is 1. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -1.

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(k,2)....x1 = k and y1 = 2
(7,0)...x2 = 7 and y2 = 0
sub
slope = (0 - 2) / (7 - k)
slope = -2 / ?......now if we want the slope to be -1..that means the number where the question mark is has to be 2....for that to happen, k has to be 5...because 7 - 5 = 2.

so ur answer is : k = 5

Similar right triangle
adoni [48]

Answer: 6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Because corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional,

\frac{x}{2.5}=\frac{6+4}{4}\\\\x=2.5\left(\frac{6+4}{4} \right)=\boxed{6.25}
