A carpenter charges $720 for 18 hours of work. She charges the same amount of money for each hour of work.
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off, you know 18 hours= 720

So you could automatically get rid of B and D since 19 and 17 are not 18.

After that, you have it down to A and C. The way you would find how much she charges for one hour is dividing 720 by 18. When you do that it means you are divding 720$ into 18 different groups each group representing an hour. When you divide 720 by 18 you should get 40. So every hour she makes 40 dollars. 40x 2 hours is 80. I hope I helped you!

What are the zeros of the function f(x) =(x^2 - 3x - 10)(x + 4)<br> !!Please help!!!
murzikaleks [220]
F(x) = (x² - 3x - 10)(x + 4) becomes (x - 5)(x + 2)(x + 4) when completely factored. Now set each binomial equal to zero. 

x - 5 = 0
x = 5

x + 2 = 0
x = - 2

x + 4 = 0
x = - 4

Your zeros are at x = - 4, - 2, and 5. Or at (- 4, 0), (- 2, 0), and (5, 0).

Is anyone good with this? I need help finding the answer.
scoray [572]

Answer:

parallel:

7x - 8y = 60

perpendicular:

8x + 7y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

original line:

-7x + 8y = 4

m = 7/8

parallel:

m = 7/8

L: 7x - 8y = k

(4, -4) -> L

28 + 32 = 60 = k

L: 7x - 8y = 60

perpendicular:

m = -8/7

L: -8x + 7y = k

(4, -4) -> L

-32 + 28 = -4 = k

L: -8x -7y = -4

=> 8x + 7y = 4

If the customer's order came to $6.22 and he gave you $20.25 what is his change
taurus [48]
He'll get $14.03 because 20.25 is what he gave but it only came up to 6.22 so 20.25-6.22=14.03
