This is simple algebra :)

First, we can write the question as an algebraic equation.

Given that Doug spent 40 more hours than Laura, we can represent Laura as (x) and Doug as (x+40).

"Doug and Laura spent a combined 250 hours." So we can write this as

(x) + (x+40) = 250

Now simplify:

2x + 40 = 250

Solve x by subtracting 40 from both sides of the equation:

2x = 210

Therefore:

x = 210/2

= 105

So Laura (x) spent 105 hours!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Left Frame

f(x) = x^2 - 6x + 8

f(x) = (x - 2)(x - 4)

The question is a fancy way of asking you to represent the quadratic formula in factored form.

Second from left Frame

This is a problem just to see if you really do know what f(g(3)) equals.

You are not asked to figure out what the function is exactly -- just what it does.

Start with g(3) = 2. What you do is just put that in the brackets for g(3) in the combined function f(g(3)) = f(2) because g(3) =2.

f(2) = 3. That's given. So the final answer is f(2) = 3

Center Frame

x^2 + y^2 + 4x- 2y = - 1  

You have to complete the square twice.

( x^2 + 4x + (4/2)^2 ) = (x + 2)^2

(y^2 - 2y + (-2/2)^2 ) = (y - 1)^2

So The next thing you have to realize is that you have added 4 on from the top completed Square and 1 from the bottom completed square.

Ultimately it will look like this.

(x + 2)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = - 1 + 4 + 1 = 4

That 4 on the right = r^2

To find r, you need to take the square root of 4

sqrt 4 = 2

radius = 2

Second from the Right

What this question is saying is that when x = 3, y = 6. Since in loose terms y and f(x) mean the same thing, what you get is

3(3)^2 -b*3 + 12 = 6

27 - 3b + 12 = 6

39 - 3b = 6              Subtract 39 from both sides.

-3b = 6 - 39             Combine

-3b = -33                  Divide by - 3

-3b/-3 = -33/-3         Combine

b = 11

Right Frame

Let Doug = D

Let Laura = L

The two equations are

D + L = 250

D = L + 40                Put the second equation into the first.

L+40 + L = 250        Combine on the left

2L + 40 = 250          Subtract 40

2L = 250 - 40           Combine

2L = 210                    Divide by 2

L = 210/2                   Combine

L = 105

So if L = 105 Doug will be 40 more

D= 105 + 40

D =  145

R is the midpoint of PQ. PR = 6x + 7 and RQ = 3x + 8, find the length of PQ.
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

PQ = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

If R is the midpoint of PQ, then PR = RQ

⇒ 6x + 7 = 3x + 8

⇒ 3x = 1

⇒ x = 1/3

So PR = 6x + 7 = 6(1/3) + 7 = 9

and RQ = 3x + 8 = 3(1/3) + 8 = 9

⇒ PQ = PR + RQ = 9 + 9 = 18

You have saved 18000 for a down payment on a house. Your bank requires a minimum down payment of 11%. What is the maximum price
zhenek [66]

Money saved for down payment = 18000

Minimum down payment required by the bank = 11%

Let the maximum price that can be offered be = P

\frac{11}{100}P=18000

11P=1800000

P=163636.36

Hence a maximum price of 163636.36 can be offered for a home that can have a down payment of 18000.

I need help with these questions(see image). <br><br>Please show workings.​
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The angle around the centre O of the circle = 360°, then

∠ AOB = 360° - 260° = 100°

Δ AOB is isosceles ( the radii OA and OB are congruent )

The altitude from O bisects ∠ AOB , thus

y = 50°

Since the triangle is isosceles the 2 base angles are congruent, so

x = \frac{180-100}{2} = \frac{80}{2} = 40°

(b)

∠ POR = 360° - 254° = 106°

Δ POR is isosceles (the radii OP and OR are congruent ) , then

the 2 base angles are congruent , thus

a = \frac{180-106}{2} = \frac{74}{2} = 37°
