Easy to Find, a computer data base, charges $30/h during peak hours to access its records. The charge during off-peak hours is $

12/h. Indigo Research was billed $876.00 last month for 40 hours of access time. Using a system of equations, find the number of hours charged for usage during peak times. A) 16 hours B) 18 hours C) 22 hours D) 24 hours

Let x be the amount of peak time and y be the amount of off-peak time.

30x + 12y = 876.00

x + y = 40

Lets multiply the second equation by 12.

12x + 12y = 480

We can now subtract the two equations from each other to cancel out the y term.

30x + 12y = 876

12x + 12y = 480

18x + 0 = 396

Next, we can solve for x.

18x = 396

x = 22

Lastly, we can plug this value into one of the equations to solve for y.

22 + y = 40

y = 18

So, the number of peak hours was 22 and the number of off-peak hours was 18. The answer is C.

Answer:

when x=6, y=30

when x=7.5, y=37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Just plug in the value of x into the equation y=5x

so when x=6, the equation will be y=5(6).  In this case y=30

when x =7.5, the equation will be y=5(7.5). So y=37.5

What is the length of AB
Anettt [7]

Answer:

\boxed{\boxed{\overline{AB}=16}}

Step-by-step explanation:

In the triangle ABC, m∠ABC=90°. Hence, it is right angle triangle.

\tan \theta=\dfrac{p}{b}=\dfrac{AB}{64}  --------1

In the triangle ABD, m∠ABD=90°. Hence, it is right angle triangle.

\cot (90-\theta)=\dfrac{b}{p}=\dfrac{4}{AB}

As \cot (90-\theta)=\tan \theta, so

\tan \theta=\dfrac{b}{p}=\dfrac{4}{AB}  ---------2

From equation 1 and 2,

\Rightarrow \dfrac{AB}{64}=\dfrac{4}{AB}

\Rightarrow AB^2=64\times 4

\Rightarrow AB^2=256

\Rightarrow AB=\sqrt{256}

\Rightarrow AB=16
