The first mechanic worked for 10 hours and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Charges of first mechanic = $95 per hour

Charges of second mechanic = $115 per hour

Total hours = 25

Total amount charged = $2675

Let,

The number of hours worked by first mechanic = x

The number of hours worked by second mechanic = y

According to given statement;

x+y=25    Eqn 1

95x+115y=2675     Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 95

95(x+y=25)\\95x+95y=2375\ \ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(95x+115y)-(95x+95y)=2675-2375\\95x+115y-95x-95y=300\\20y=300

Dividing both sides by 20

\frac{20y}{20}=\frac{300}{20}\\y=15

Putting y=15 in Eqn 1

x+15=25\\x=25-15\\x=10

The first mechanic worked for 10 hours and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours.

An executive in the home construction industry is interested in how house size (House) is influenced by family income (Income),
Harman [31]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

P-value of income and size is 0.0003 and 0.0001 respectively. Both are less than 0.05 level of significance. So these are significant ot the model. Option D is correct.

(b)

The model is

House_size = -1.6335+0.4485*income + 4.2615*family_size -0.6517*school

Here we have income = 85600/1000 = 85.6

family_size = 6

school = 13

So the predicted house size is

House_size = -1.6335+0.4485*85.6 + 4.2615*6 -0.6517*13=53.855

the predicted house size (in hundreds of square feet) is 53.86. hence, option B is correct.

3)

Here we have income = 100000/1000 = 100

family_size = 10

school = 16

So the predicted house size is

House_size = -1.6335+0.4485*100 + 4.2615*10 -0.6517*16=75.40

Residual : observed value- predicted value = 70 - 75.40 = -5.40

Option C is correct.

Answer:

A) 2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, regular polygons have equal sides and angles. Therefore, each side of the regular hexagon must be equal. Since one side is marked as 2 cm, the length of PQ must also be 2 cm.

What is the volume of a hemisphere with a diameter of 7.6 m, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter?
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

114.9 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

v=(2/3)πr^3

diameter=2r

r=7.6/2

r=3.8

(2/3)π* (3.8)^3

~36.58π meter

if the teacher wants you to use 3.14 as π (like instead of writing the symbol of π), then 36.58*3.14=114.9 meter
