Rashid is paid by the hour. He earned $50 for 4 hour workday. How much does he earn for a 5 1/2 hour workday?

-----------------

Use a proportion:

x/(5 1/2) = 50/4

--------

x = (11/2)(50/4)

--------

x = 550/8

----

x = $68.75

Colin has a pad with x pieces of paper on it. For his first class, he wrote on 5 fewer than half of the pieces of paper in the p

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Colin has 8 sheets left for his third class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total Number of pieces of papers = $x$

Number of pieces of papers used for 1st class = 5 fewer than half of the pieces in the pad

Writing the equation:

$\text{Number of pieces of papers used for 1st class =} \dfrac{x}{2} -5 ...... (1)$

Also, Given that number of pieces of papers used for the 2nd class are 2 more than that of papers used in the 1st class.

$\text{Number of pieces of papers used for 2nd class =} \dfrac{x}{2} -5+2 = \dfrac{x}2 -3 ...... (2)$

Now, number of pieces of papers left for the third class = Total number of pieces of papers in the pad - Number of pieces of papers used in the first class - Number of pieces of papers used in the first class

$\text{number of pieces of papers left for the third class = }x-(\dfrac{x}{2}-5)-(\dfrac{x}{2}-3)\\\Rightarrow x-\dfrac{x}2-\dfrac{x}2+5+3\\\Rightarrow x-x+5+3\\\Rightarrow 8$

So, the answer is:

Colin has 8 sheets left for his third class.

In a function, y varies inversely with x. The constant of variation is 4. Which table could represent the function?

Colt1911 [192]

I don't see a table but I can give you the means to answer it yourself. The inverse function is represented by this: $y= \frac{k}{x}$ where k is your constant. You are given a k value of 4. If you solve this for k then you will get xy=4. In your tables, multiply your x value by your y value within your coordinate points and if you get a product of 4 each time you multiply x by y, then that table is your answer.
