<h3>Hello there!</h3>

We are trying to find how much Mike earns when he worked for 10 hours

Lets make an equation out of the given information in the question.

We know that:

Earns $15 each hour
$25 bonus

We would format it as y = mx + b

Our equations would be y = 15x + 25

"x" being the amount of hours he worked

We know that he worked 10 hours, so we would plug 10 into x.

Then, we can solve.

y = 15(10) + 25

y = 150 + 25

y = 175

<h3>Answer: $175</h3><h3>I hope this helps!</h3><h3>Best regards,</h3><h3>MasterInvestor</h3>

How do you get 24 using 1, -6, -7, -3

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to set up an expression involving 1, -6, -7, -3.

-6*-3--7+1

We use BODMAS to simplify:

We multiply to get:

18--7+1

We now add to obtain:

18--6

Note that negative negative gives addition.

Therefore:

18+6

This finally simplifies to:

Determine which factors below can be the dimensions of a rectangle with an area of .

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle is length * width.

The question asks which of the following (length * width) will give the expression for area...

<em>We multiply each, and whichever is equal to the expression for area given, is the answer. We use the distributive property to expand.</em>

<em>Distributive property is $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ </em>

$(3x-7)(4x+9)\\=12x^2+27x-28x-63\\=12x^2-x-63$

This is not the answer.

$(3x+7)(4x-9)\\=12x^2-27x+28x-63\\=12x^2+x-63$

We don't need to do more because B is equal to the expression of area given.

B is the correct answer.
