We have $8.50 an hour gross minus $2.15 an hour tax and bennys. Then $3.75 daily expense. In one week our net take-away y after x hours is
y = x(8.50 - 2.15) - 5(3.75)
That's the answer, or we can simplify it to
Answer: y = 6.35 x - 18.75
Answer: The slope, 6.35, is the net dollars per hour <em>before weekly expenses.</em>
Answer: The y intercept, -18.75, is the weekly expense, negative because it's an expense.
To make $120 in a week, we solve for x where y=120
120 = 6.35x - 18.75
138.75 = 6.35 x
x = 138.75 / 6.35 = 21.8503937007874
That wasn't the nice round number I was expecting/hoping for. I don't see a mistake so let's go with
Answer: 21.85 hours to make $120
Answer:x=31.4919
Step-by-step explanation:
Step1:isolate a square root on the left hand side√x+3=√2x-1-2
Step2:eliminate the radicals on the left hand side
Raise both sides to the second power
√x+3)^2=(√2x-1-2)^2
After squaring
x+3=2x-1+4-4-4√2x-1
Step3:get the remaining radicals by itself
x+3=2x-1+4-4√2x-1
Isolate radical on the left hand side
4√2x-1=-x-3+2x-1+4
4√2x-1=x
Step4:eliminate the radicals on the left hand side
Raise both side to the second power
(4√2x-1)^2=x^2
After squaring
32x-16=x^2
Step 5:solve the quadratic equation
x^2-32x-16
This equation has two real roots
x1=32+√960/2=31.4919
x2=32-√960/2=0.5081
Step6:check that the first solution is correct
Put in 31.4919 for x
√31.4919+3=√2•31.4919-1-2
√34.492=5.873
x=31.4919
Step7:check that the second solution is correct
√x+3=√2x-1-2
Put in 0.5081 for x
√0.5081+3=√2•0.5081-1-2
√3.508=-1.873
1.873#-1.873
One solution was found
x=31.4919
Target: ratio of pizza places / person < 0.01
<span>The
population of 15 blocks of the north side of town is 221 people per
block, but there are already 32 pizza places in the area.
population = 15*221 = 3,315
ratio: 32 pizza places / 3315 people = 0.0097 pizza places per person
Which indeed is less than 0.01 => this area is good for their purpose.
The population
of 22 blocks of the south area is 150 people per block, and there are
28 pizza places in the area.</span>
population: 22*150 = 3300
ratio: 28 pizza places / 3300 people = 0.00085 which is also less than 0.01
Both places meet the target of less than 0.01 places per person, but the south area seems better than north area.
Answer:
20 years
Step-by-step explanation:
20 is the lowest common multiple for 5,4,2
Constant rate of change is just saying how much the x or y value is going up or down. hoped this helped :)
