Answer: The waiter earns a standard wage of $7 per hour of work

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the waiter in the question earned a total of $128 for 6 hours. This means that his earning for one hour is:-

6 hours ------- $128

1 hour -------- $?

Therefore; 1/6 × 128

= $21.33

So, the waiter earned approximately $21 per hour.

Now, this also includes the tip he earned that is not part of his standard wage.

If we are to determine his standard wage for an hour, we will do this by subtracting the tip he earned over that period from his total earnings and then divide the result by the number of hours the waiter worked.

His standard wage for the six hours of work is:

= $128 - $86

= $42

So, if he earned a total standard wage of $42 for the six hours he worked, then his earning per hour is:

6(six) hours -------- $42

1 hour -------- $?

= 1/6 × 42

= $7.

We have found that the waiter earns a standard wage of $7 per hour of work before the inclusion of tips or other incentives.

Answer:

The waiter earns $7 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount a waiter earns per hour at work given the total he had earned including tips.

To solve this question, we can see that we have been given the total amount he has earned and also the amount he has also earned in tips.

Now, to get the standard amount he’s supposed to earn per hour, firstly, we have to subtract the amount he has earned in tips from the total. Mathematically that is 128-86 = $42

This means, by standard he has earned $42 in six hours. Now, we need to calculate the amount she earns by hour.

To do this, we simply divide the total amount earned by the number of hours.

Mathematically that is $42/6 hours = $7 per hour

Eddie built the ramp shown to train his puppy to do tricks. What is the surface area of the ramp. The dimensions are 20,20,20,23
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

3775 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the ramp :

Area of rectangle = 20 * 23 = 460 in²

Area of rectangle = 20 * 23 = 460 in²

Area of rectangle = 25 * 23 = 575 in²

Bottom rectangle = 60 * 23 = 1380 in²

For the trapezium: (front and rear)

1/2 (base 1 + base 2) * height

Base total = 20+ 20+ 20= 60

1/2(60)*15 = 450 in²

Total surface Area :

(460 + 460 + 575 + 1380 + 450 + 450) in² = 3775 in²

Direction: Solve each of the following system of linear equations graphically then check, if the system of linear equations has
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The solution is (0, 2) or x = 0, y = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a system of linear equations graphically entails graphing the lines and then finding the point where the lines intersect. This point of intersection will be the solution to the system of equations.

Getting these linear equations into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b, where m is the line's slope and b is the line's y-intercept) makes them a lot easier to graph, so let's make sure that both lines are in slope-intercept form.

The first line isn't in slope-intercept form, so we can rewrite it as:

x + y = 2

y = -x + 2 (Subtract x from both sides of the equation to isolate y)

The second line technically isn't in slope-intercept form, so we can rewrite it as:

y = 2 - 3x

y = -3x + 2 (Commutative Property of Addition)

Now, we can graph the lines to find the solution to the system.

To graph y = -x + 2, draw a line with a slope of -1 (since m = -1) and a y-intercept of (0, 2) (since b = 2). This is the red line on the graph.

To graph y = -3x + 2, draw a line with a slope of -3 (since m = -3) and a y-intercept of (0, 2) (since b = 2). This is the blue line on the graph.

Looking at the graph below, we see that the lines intersect at (0, 2), so this is our answer.

To check if this point is a solution to the system of equations, simply substitute the x and y-coordinates of the point into the equations. If the point satisfies all of the equations, then it is a solution to the system.

In (0, 2), x = 0, and y = 2. Substituting these values into the first equation gives us 0 + 2 = 2, which simplifies to 2 = 2. This is a true statement, so (0, 2) satisfies the first equation. Substituting x = 0 and y = 2 into the second equation gives us 2 = 2 - 3 * 0, which simplifies to 2 = 2. This is also a true statement, so (0, 2) satisfies the second equation, and therefore is a solution to the system of linear equations. Hope this helps!
