Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What you've provided is only a function. What's the complete question?
Set of equations that can be used to calculate rate for each plumber:
2A+8B+8C = 1,400 --- (1)
4A+7B+10C = 1,660 --- (2)
3A+9B+9C = 1,660 --- (3)
------------------------------------
2*(1) - (2)
------------------------------------
4A+16B+16C = 2,800
4A+7B+10C = 1,660 -
------------------------------------
9B+6C = 1,140 --- (4)
------------------------------------
3(2) -4(3)
-----------------------------------
12A+21B+30C = 4,980
12A+36B+36C = 6,600 -
-----------------------------------
-15B-6C = -1,620 --- (5)
------------------------------------
(4) + (5)
------------------------------------
9B+6C = 1140
-15B-6C = -1620 +
-------------------------------------
-6B = -480 => 6B = 480 => B = 480/6 = 80
-------------------------------------------------------
Using (4), 9(80)+6C = 1140
720+6C = 1140 => 6C = 1140-720 = 420 => C = 420/6 = 70
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using (1), 2A+8(80)+8(70) = 1400
2A+640+560 =1400 => 2A = 1400-640-560 = 200 => A = 200/2 = 100
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rates are:
A = $100
B = $80
C = $70
--------------------------------
On Thursday, number of calls: A = 4 hrs, B = 6 hrs, C = 3 hrs
Money earned = 4*100+6*80+3*70 = $1,090
Answer:
18.0 cm to 1 decimal point.
Step-by-step explanation:
First work out the unknown side (s) of the right triangle using the Pythagoras theorem:
s^2 = 13^2 - 5^2
= 169 - 25 = 144
s = sqrt 144 = 12 cm.
Now consider the other triangle:
s = 12
The missing angle = 180 - 65 - 40 = 75 degrees.
By the Sine Rule:
x / sin 75 = 12 / sin40
x = 12 sin 75 / sin 40
= 18.03
-
We can use proportion to get the result
10 ----------- 5%
x ------------- 100%
Crossmultiply proportion
5*x=10*100
5x=1000 /:5 divide both sides by 5
x=1000:5
x=200 - its the answer
