I am setting the week hourly rate to x, and the weekend to y. Here is how the equation is set up:
13x + 14y = $250.90
15x + 8y = $204.70
This is a system of equations, and we can solve it by multiplying the top equation by 4, and the bottom equation by -7. Now it equals:
52x + 56y = $1003.60
-105x - 56y = -$1432.90
Now we add these two equations together to get:
-53x = -$429.30 --> 53x = $429.30 --> (divide both sides by 53) x = 8.10. This is how much she makes per hour on a week day.
Now we can plug in our answer for x to find y. I am going to use the first equation, but you could use either.
$105.30 + 14y = $250.90. Subtract $105.30 from both sides --> 14y = $145.60 divide by 14 --> y = $10.40
Now we know that she makes $8.10 per hour on the week days, and $10.40 per hour on the weekends. Subtracting 8.1 from 10.4, we figure out that she makes $2.30 more per hour on the weekends than week days.
Answer:
2.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the length of segment AB and the length of segment BC. To find their midpoints, we can divide their length by 2.
Let's find the midpoint of AB.
- Segment AB: 10 cm
- Midpoint of AB: 10/2 = 5 cm
Next let's find the midpoint of BC.
- Segment BC: 5.2 cm
- Midpoint of BC: 5.2/2 = 2.6 cm
In order to find the difference between these midpoints, we can subtract the midpoint of AB by the midpoint of BC.
Therefore, the difference between the midpoints of AB and BC is 2.4 cm.

Answer:
slope = 3
y-intercept = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
m = slope; b = y-intercept
y = 3x - 5
y = 3x + (-5)
m = 3 = slope
b = -5 = y-intercept
