Joe's Painting: 20x + 100 = y

Steve's Painting: 15x + 120 = y

x = hours worked

y = total income

We can find when the two equations intersect by making them equal to each other. That means we put an equal sign in the middle. So, it would look something like this:

20x + 100 = 15x + 120

First, we have to move the 100 by subtracting it from both sides.

20x = 15x + 120 - (100)

20x = 15x + 20

Then, we need to move the 15x by subtracting it from both sides.

20 - (15x) = 20

5x = 20

Lastly, we need to divide 5 from both sides.

5x = 20/5

x = 4

Therefore, Joe and Steve would have to work for 4 hours in order for their models to be equal to each other.

Does anyone get this question?
masya89 [10]

Answer:

a= 121°

b=62°

c=59°

Step-by-step explanation:

I first found b because they are vertical angles

Because I know the measure of angle b I take 180 (total sum of a triangle) and subtracted 62 from 180 which gave me 59 and because both base angles are equal to each other I divided 118 by 2 which gave me 59. Giving me the measure of angle c.

By adding angles b and c they would give me the measure of angle a.

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-20, 18) and (30, 14)​
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The slope is -2/25.

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(14-18)/(30-(-20))

m=-4/(30+20)

m=-4/50

simplify

m=-2/25
