We have been given that to determine the number of deer in a game preserve, a conservationist catches 594 deer, tags them and lets them loose. Later, 748 deer are caught; 187 of them are tagged. We are asked to find the number of deer in the preserve.
We will use proportions to solve our given problem.
Therefore, there are 2376 deer in the preserve.
Hi DeidreFauscett965,
To solve this problem first you have to figure out how much the employee earned during the first 40 hours. You do this by multiplying $11.25 by 40.
To multiply decimals you multiply regularly, ignoring the decimal points.
11.25 x 40 = 45000
Then, add the decimal points by looking at how many decimal points your original numbers had combined, which was two from 11.25, so:
11.25 x 40 = 450.00
So the employee earned $450 during the first 40 hours. Now, you have to subtract $450 from $622 to see how much they earned in overtime.
622-450 = $172 earned in overtime
To figure out how many hours they worked in overtime you have to divide $172 by $16 because that is what they were paid for each overtime hour.
172 / 16 = 10.75 (image attached)
So the employee worked 10.75 overtime hours.
the answer is go on math///way. take out the slashes.
Answer:
The answer is 24
I found this answer because the smaller triangles base is 5
and the bigger triangle is 15
5x3 = 15
8x3 = 24
Plug in 10 for x in h(x) then simplify
h(10)=2(10)-8
h(10)=20-8
h(10)=12
h(10) is 12 so put 12 in for g(x)
g(h(10))=12-4
g(h(10))=8
Here’s everything together
g(h(10))=(2(10)-8)-4
=(20-8)-4
=(12)-4
=8
This is what I’ve always done. I can’t really tell what your answers are so sorry if this isn’t right at all.
