A tiling company completes two jobs. The first job has $1200 in labor expenses for 40 hours worked, while the second job has $15

60 in labor expenses for 52 hours worked. The relationship between the labor expenses and the hours worked is linear. Which equation can be used to calculate the y-intercept of the linear equation?
1200 = 40(40) + b
1560 = 30(40) + b
1560 = 30(52) + b
1200 = 52(30) + b

Answer:

The correct equation is 1560 = 30(52) + b

C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

A tiling company completes two jobs.

The first job has $1200 in labor expenses for 40 hours worked.

Point: (40,1200)

The second job has $1560 in labor expenses for 52 hours worked.

Point: (52,1560)

Using two point we make linear equation.

First we find the slope of line

$m=\dfrac{1560-1200}{52-40}$

$m=\dfrac{360}{12}$

$m=30$

Slope intercept form: y=mx+b

where, b is y-intercept

y=30x+b

Passing points: (52,1560) and (40,1200)

Possible equation to find y-intercept

1200 = 30(40) + b

1560 = 30(52) + b

Hence, The correct equation is 1560 = 30(52) + b

The closest i can think of that makes since is 1560=30(52)+b, mainly because
30 x 52 = 1560 so that's what i think it is and if im wrong sry.

In each box is a step in the process of solving a max/min problem like the one in Question 8. Number these steps in order (1-8)

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The steps are numbered below

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve a maximum/minimum problem, the steps are as follows.

1. Make a drawing.

2. Assign variables to quantities that change.

3. Identify and write down a formula for the quantity that is being optimized.

4. Identify the endpoints, that is, the domain of the function being optimized.

5. Identify the constraint equation.

6. Use the constraint equation to write a new formula for the quantity being optimized that is a function of one variable.

7. Find the derivative and then the critical points of the function being optimized.

8. Evaluate the y-values of the critical points and endpoints by plugging them into the function being optimized. The largest y- value is the global maximum, and the smallest y-value is the global minimum.

A North American river otter wants to cross the North Saskatchewan river. It can swim at a speed of 2.75 m/s. In that location,

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

time to cross will be the distance divided by the velocity in that direction.

a) t = d/v = 45/2.75 = 16.363636... 16.4 s

In the same time that the otter is swimming cross stream, the stream is also moving perpendicularly at its own pace.

b) d = vt = 2.5(16.36) = 40.9090... 40.9 m

As velocity is a vector, An observer on the bank would see the velocity as the vector addition of the cross stream and down stream velocities

c) v = √(2.75² + 2.5²) = 3.716517... 3.72 m/s magnitude

θ = arctan2.5/2.75 = 42.2736... 42.3° downstream of a line straight across

Please help me with this problem, please

Harman [31]

Answer:

sin(x) = 5/13

cos(y) = 5/12

Therefore, sin(x) = cos(y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Trig ratios:

$sin(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{H}\\\\\\cos(\theta)=\dfrac{A}{H}\\\\\\tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}$

where $\theta$ is the angle, O is the measure of the side opposite the angle, A is the measure of the side adjacent to the angle and H is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle

We have been given the measures of the two legs, so we can find the measure of the hypotenuse by using Pythagoras' Theorem $a^2+b^2=c^2$

(where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle)

$\implies 5^2+12^2=c"\\\\\implies 169=c^2\\\\\implies c=\sqrt{169}\\\\ \implies c=13$

Now we can use the trig ratios:

$\implies sin(x)=\dfrac{5}{13}$

$\implies cos(y)=\dfrac{5}{13}$

Therefore, sin(x) = cos(y)
