Answer:

He should work 6\frac{2}{3} hours in overtime.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the number of hours of regular time and y represents the number of hours of overtime,

Since, earnings are $24 per hour for regular time and $36 per hour for overtime,

Thus, total earning = (24x + 36y) dollars,

Here, x = 40 hours and total earning = $ 1200,

By substituting the values,

1200 = 24(40) + 36y

1200 = 960 + 36y

240 = 36y

⇒ y = 6\frac{2}{3}\text{ hours}

Hence, he should work 6\frac{2}{3} hours in overtime.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>According to the complex conjugate root theorem:</u>

if a complex number is a root of a polynomial, its conjugate is also the root of the polynomial

We are given all the roots of the polynomial and there is only one complex root

Since according to the complex conjugate root theorem, there can be either none or at least 2 complex roots of a polynomial

We can say that this set of roots of a polynomial is incorrect

Alona [7]

Answer:

It is 91% more likely that the tree was atmost 500 yards from the river.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

We are given with distance and height of 100 young trees near a river.

From that table, in total there are 55 trees which grow more than 3 ft during the year.

And among those 55 trees, 50 trees are atmost 50 yards from river.

Hence it is ≈91% more likely that the tree was atmost 50 yards from the river.
