Let us assume that a person works for 8 hours a day.

Let us assume that the person works for 5 days a week.

Wage earned per hour = $15

So, wage earned in 8 hours = 15*8 = $120

Now, wage earned in 1 day = 120

So, wage earned in 5 days = 120*5 =$600

As the person works for 5 days in 1 week

So, in 50 weeks, he will work = 50*5 = 250 days

So, total number of hours he must have worked = 250*8 =2000 hours

Now, per hour wage = $15

wage in 2000 hours = 15*2000 = $30000

Hence, the estimated wage a person earns in 50 weeks = $30000

Answer:

a) Rumble: $1

Pedal: $0.6

b) more than 5 songs

c) No, should be integers only

d) No, has to be integers greater than or equal to 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

Rate per song is the slope.

Rumble:

Slope is 0.6

Rate is $0.6 per song

Pedal:

Slope: (4-2)/(2-0) = 1

Rate is $1 per song

Part b

Pedal would be a better deal if it's cost is lower than Rumble's

Rumble's cost: C = 2 + S

Pedal's cost: C = 4 + 0.6S

4 + 0.6S < 2 + S

0.4S > 2

S > 5

c) No, because no. of songs has to be positive integers only.

For example graph shows S = 2.5, but we know that's not possible

d) No, since the cost is 2 + S,

cost can't be in decimals either.

Cost too should be only integers greater than equal to 2

Solve for the equation, show all your work. This is an absolute value equation. You need to show both equations and the work for

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

$x=-1$ or $7$

Step-by-step explanation:

We use casework on when $3x-9=12$ and when $3x-9=-12$ .

For the first case, $3x-9=12$ , we add 9 to both sides to get

$3x=21$ .

Dividing both sides by 3 gives

$x=7.$

For the second case, $3x-9=-12$ , we add 9 to both sides to get

$3x=-3$ .

Dividing both sides by 3 gives

$x=-1$ .

Checking both cases, we plug in $x=7$ and $x=-1$ .

For the first case, we have $|3(7)-9|=|21-9|=|12|=12$ , which satisfies the equation.

For the second case, we have $|3(-1)-9|=|-3-9|=|-12|=12$ , which also satisfies the equation.

This gives us two solutions to the equation; $x=7$ and $x=-1$ .

ABCEDEFGH is a regular octagon. The minimum degree of rotation by which this octagon can map onto itself is . It will take incre

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

45 or multiples of 45 around the centre of octagon

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ABCDEFGH is a regular octagon. i.e. it has 8 sides.

Since regular ocagon, all interior angles would be equal.

Sum of all interior angles of octagon = 2(8)-4 right angles

= 12 right angles

Hence each angle = 12(90)/8 = 135 degrees

Thus the octagon when rotated will take the same shape if vertices interchange also due to the property that all sides and angles are equal

Since each angle is 135 imagine an octagon with one vertex at origin O, and adjacent vertex B on x axis. OB has to be coincident with BC the next side or the previous side to get it mapped onto itself

The centre will be at the middle with each side subtending an angle of 45 degrees.

Hence if rotation is done around the centre with 45 degrees we will get octagon mapped onto itself.

45, 90, 135 thus multiples of 45
