Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

She worked for 3 Hours on Monday.

Step-by-step explanation:

7.5$ per hour

7.5+2$ per hour on Sundays.

In August:

Sunday, Monday, Wednesday.

# of hours for Monday =Wednesday

Sunday= 4 hrs (which would mean 9.5$ * 4)

Monday and Wednesday will be modeled by X

X + 38$ (earned sunday)= 83$

-38

X= 45$

Since X represents BOTH monday and wednesday, divide by 2

45/2 = 22.5$

CHECK YOUR WORK

22.5$ (monday) + 22.5$ (wednesday) + 38$ (sunday)= 83???

45=38=83???

83=83 YES

Now, to determine how many hours that is, we divide the earned wages by the wage per hour.

22.5 / 7.5 = 3 HOURS

CHECK YOUR WORK

3 hours * 7.5 per hour = 22.5???

22.5 = 22.5 YES

Hope this helps

The point R(-3,a,-1) is the midpoint of the line segment jointing the points P(1,2,b)
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The values are:

  • a = -5/2
  • b = -6
  • c = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • P = (x₁, y₁, z₁) = (1, 2, b)  
  • Q =  (x₂, y₂, z₂) = (c, -7, 4)  
  • m = R = (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1)

To Determine:

a = ?

b = ?

c = ?

Determining the values of a, b, and c

Using the mid-point formula

m\:=\:\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\:\frac{y_1+y_2}{2},\:\frac{z_1+z_2}{2}\right)

  • As the point R(-3, a, -1) is the midpoint of the line segment jointing the points P(1,2,b)  and Q(c,-7,4), so
  • m = R = (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1)

Using the mid-point formula

m\:=\:\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\:\frac{y_1+y_2}{2},\:\frac{z_1+z_2}{2}\right)

given

(x₁, y₁, z₁) = (1, 2, b) = P

(x₂, y₂, z₂) = (c, -7, 4) = Q

m = (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1) = R

substituting the value of (x₁, y₁, z₁) = (1, 2, b) = P,   (x₂, y₂, z₂) = (c, -7, 4) = Q, and m = (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1) = R in the mid-point formula

m\:=\:\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\:\frac{y_1+y_2}{2},\:\frac{z_1+z_2}{2}\right)

\left(x,\:y,\:z\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)

as (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1), so

\left(-3,\:a,\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)

<u>Determining 'c'</u>

-3 = (1+c) / (2)

-3 × 2 = 1+c

1+c = -6

c = -6 - 1

c = -7

<u>Determining 'a'</u>

a = (2+(-7)) / 2

2a = 2-7

2a = -5

a = -5/2

<u>Determining 'b'</u>

-1 = (b+4) / 2

-2 = b+4

b = -2-4

b = -6

Therefore, the values are:

  • a = -5/2
  • b = -6
  • c = -7

In the figure, m∠B = m∠C and ∠D is a right angle. cos B =
Rasek [7]

Answer: The correct option is (a), i.e., cos B= sin A.

Explanation:

It is given that the ∠B = ∠C and ∠D is a right angle.

Since two corresponding angles of both triangles are same, so by angel sum property three angles are also equal. Therefore by AAA rule both triangles are similar.

It is given that,

\angle B=\angle C

\cos B=\cos C

Using angle sum property angle C is written as,

\cos B=\cos (180-\angle D-\angle A)

\cos B=\cos (180-90-\angle A)

\cos B=\cos (90-\angle A)

By using quadrant concepts.

\cos B=\sin A

Therefore option A is correct.

The first step in solving the equation 3x+4=20 is to ____ from each side. This is an example of the ________ Property of _______
ki77a [65]

3x+ 4 = 20

First you SUBTRACT 4 from both sides . Since these are inequalities we do reverse PEMDAS (Parentheses , Exponents , Multiply , Divide , Add ,Subtract). Then you will have an equivalent equation of

3x=16

Now we have to isolate X . So we divide 3 by both sides . Which will get 5.3333...

Therefore , The answer will be

The first step in solving the equation is to<u> SUBTRACT </u> from each side . This is an example of the <u>subtraction</u> property of <u>EQUALITY</u>
