Answer:

11 hours she worked at the grocery store

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming,

the number of hours worked at tutoring = x

the number of hours worked at grocery store = y

which means,

the amount she made at tutoring = x* $15

the amount she made at grocery store = y*$9

we have 2 equations

<em>total number of hours</em>

1) x+y= 15  

<em>total amount she earned</em>

2) x* $15+ y* $9= $159

From equation 1

x+y= 15  

x=15-y

<em>we replace this x value in equation 2</em>

x* $15+ y* $9= $159

(15-y)* $15+ y* $9= $159

(15*15)- 15y+9y=159

225-6y=159

225-159=6y

66=6y

66/6=y

<u>11=y</u>  <em>the number of hours she worked at grocery store. </em>

<em>we place y=11 in our derived x equation</em>

x=15-y

x=15-11

<u><em>x=4 </em></u><em>the number of hours she worked at tutoring. </em>

Drag each figure to show if it is similar to the figure shown or why it is not similar.
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar figures have the same shape but the same size.

Moving from left to right:

The first figure is similar because the ratio is 6:14 which is the same as the figure 3:7.

The second figure is not similar because of shape

The third figure is is not similar because the ratio is 6:12 which is not the same as the figure 3:7

The fourth figure is similar because it is rotated

The fifth figure is not similar because of shape

The sixth figure is not similar because of the ratio of 2:3.5 which is not the same as the figure's ratio of 3:7

Can someone please help me please I really need help please help me.
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I can't get to act correctly either.

The answer is 1 day and 7 items.

Ariana

y = 5x + 2

Julie

y = 7x

The ys have to be the same so equate the right hand side.

7x = 5x + 2                      Subtract 5x from both sides.

7x - 5x = 5x - 5x + 2

2x = 2                             Divide by 2

2x/2 = 2/2

x = 1

Explain, with a test, why the two triangles in each figure are similar. Find the
frutty [35]

Answer:

x = 3, y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached,

If ΔADE and ΔABC are similar triangles, their corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.

By this property,

\frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{AC}{AE}=\frac{BC}{DE}

\frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{AC}{AE}

\frac{AD+BD}{AD}=\frac{AE+EC}{AE}

\frac{3}{2}=\frac{x+1.5}{x}

3x = 2x + 3

3x - 2x = 3

x = 3

Similarly, \frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{BC}{DE}

\frac{3}{2}=\frac{y}{4}

y = \frac{3\times 4}{2}

y = 6

Can someone pls help me
Yuri [45]

Answer:

I'm not sure, but I'll try

Step-by-step explanation:

(Side)^2 = (Hypotenuse)^2 - (Side)^2

(Side)^2 = (9)^2 - ( √ 65 )^2

(Side)^2 = (81) - (65)

(Side)^2 = 16

Take root of answer

Side = √16

Side = 4

Answer = 4

Find f(2) given f(x) = -3x^3 + x^2 – 3
aleksley [76]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -3x^3 + x^2 – 3       f(2) means that wherever you see a x, put in a 2.

f(2)= -3(2)^3 + (2)^2 - 3

f(2) = -3*8 + 4 - 3

f(2) = - 24 + 1

f(2) = - 23
