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>

What is true about AngleQRT? Select two options.
stiv31 [10]

The complete question is

"Triangle QST is isosceles, and Line segment R T bisects AngleT. Triangle Q S T is cut by bisector R T. The lengths of sides S T and Q T are congruent. Line segments S R and R Q are congruent. Angles S T R and R T Q are congruent. What is true about AngleQRT?

Select two options. Measure of angleQRT = 90° Measure of angleQRT = Measure of angleSRT AngleQRT Is-congruent-to AngleSTQ Measure of angleQRT = 2*Measure of angleRTQ AngleQRT Is-congruent-to AngleRTQ"

The true about AngleQRT options are A abd B; ∠QRT = 90 and ∠QRT = ∠SRT

<h3>What is the congruent triangle?</h3>

Two triangles are said to be congruent if the length of the sides is equal, a measure of the angles are equal and they can be superimposed.

Given information;

The triangle QST is isosceles with QT ≅ ST.

The ∠STR and ∠RTQ are congruent.

Now, consider two triangles ∠QTR and ∠STR

In the following triangle

TR  ≅  TR

QTR ≅ STR

QT ≅ ST

Now, according to SAS rule, two congruent triangles have congruent corresponding to their sides,

1. QR ≅ SR

2. QRT ≅ SRT

Since the above two angles are congruent so, they will have the same measure

That will be 90 degree.

Hence, The correct options are; ∠QRT = 90 and ∠QRT = ∠SRT

The average weight of full-grown beef cows is 1,470 pounds with a standard deviation of 230 pounds. if the weights are normally
creativ13 [48]

Answer: The percentile is 89

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using concept for t tables

In a normal distribution the curve. \mu= 1470 ,  \sigma = 230, x=1750

The relationship between z score, mean and standard deviation is given by

x = \mu+z\sigma

So the z value according to this is given by the formula

1750=1470+z(230)\\ z=\frac{280}{230} \\\\z = 1.217

From the z table we can infer that p value for z=+1.217 is 88.82

So 1750 is 89th percentile
