Answer:

48 assistants

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1 executive has an average of 1.5 assistants, let x represent the number of assistants that are employed if there are 32 executives in the office.

Thus:

1.5 assistants to 1 executive = x assistants to 32 executives

1.5 : 1 = x : 32

\frac{1.5}{1} = \frac{x}{32}

Cross multiply

1.5*32 = x*1

48 = x

Therefore, 48 assistants were employed in the office.

Linear model function
sveticcg [70]

Using equations of linear model function, the number of hours Jeremy wants to skate is calculated as 3.

<h3>How to Write the Equation of a Linear Model Function?</h3>

The equation that can represent a linear model function is, y = mx + b, where m is the unit rate and b is the initial value.

Equation for Rink A:

Unit rate (m) = (35 - 19)/(5 - 1) = 16/4 = 4

Substitute (x, y) = (1, 19) and m = 4 into y = mx + b to find b:

19 = 4(1) + b

19 - 4 = b

b = 15

Substitute m = 4 and b = 15 into y = mx + b:

y = 4x + 15 [equation for Rink A]

Equation for Rink B:

Unit rate (m) = (39 - 15)/(5 - 1) = 24/4 = 6

Substitute (x, y) = (1, 15) and m = 6 into y = mx + b to find b:

15 = 6(1) + b

15 - 6 = b

b = 9

Substitute m = 6 and b = 9 into y = mx + b:

y = 6x + 9 [equation for Rink B]

To find how many hours (x) both would cost the same (y), make both equation equal to each other

4x + 15 = 6x + 9

4x - 6x = -15 + 9

-2x = -6

x = 3

The hours Jeremy wants to skate is 3.

What is the least common denominator for adding the fractions 4/15, 1/12, and 3/8
il63 [147K]
I think you want the least common multipule (exg LCM of 2,3,4 is 12)

so we find the factors and include all of them so like this

15=3 times 5
12=2 times 2 times 3
8=2 times 2 times 2

so to include all of them we include 3 2's, 1 3 and 1 5 or 2 times 2 times 2 times 3 times 5 or 8 times 15 or 4 times 30 or 120

the LCM is 120

so 4/15=32/120
1/12=10/120
3/8=45/120

add 32/120+10/120+45/120=(32+10+45)/120=87/120

I’m too lazy to do all of this and I’m also a little confused on it, and I also have more hw besides this one, so ima need all t
Oliga [24]

Answer:

14. 70% of 20000 is 14000. 25% of 14000 is 3500. 3500 students applied.

15. The percentage of 4000 that 2600 equates to would be 65%.

16. 4% of 33000 is 1320.

16b. Double of 1320 is 2640.

17. 3% of 110 + 275 + 200 + 145 is 21.9. 97% of that is 711.1. Total is 730.

18. There are 1656 men working. Total of 1380 + 1656 is 3036. Two ways to solve this are:

Honestly I can't think of two. Sorry, my brain is completely fried today.

19. 760 in sales commissions to meet the wage amount.

20. The agency gets 21010. 30% of that is 6303. This is explained by owning a calculator or simple value elimination.
