Suppose you work as a clerk at a local retail store earning $6 per hour. The amount of your weekly paycheck (before taxes are ta

Viktor [21]

Answer:

x is the independent variable and it represents the number of hours worked per week by the clerk.

Step-by-step explanation:

An independent variable refers to a variable in model that is varied or changed in order to examine its effect on another variable. The other variable is called a dependent variable.

A dependent variable is a variable in a model that changes as a result of a change in the independent variable.

From the question, x is the independent variable and its represent the number of hours worked by the clerk.

F(x) represents the amount of your weekly paycheck and it is the dependent variable that changes as the number of hours worked, x, changes.

For example, since we are given:

F(x) = 6x ............................... (1)

Where;

F(x) = = depemdent variable = Amount of weekly paycheck (before taxes are taken out)

6 = coefficient of x = Earning per hour

x = Independent variable = Number of hours worked

Assuming x = 1, we can substitute this into equation (1) and have:

F(x) = 6 * 1 = $6

But when x = 2, we have:

F(x) = 6 * 2 = $12

Therefore, the dependent variable F(x) changes from $6 weekly to $12 weekly as the independent variable x changes form 1 hour to 2 hours weekly.

Find a number such that 10 less than two thirds the number is one fourth the number

Ivan

Answer:

the number is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

10 less than two thirds the number is one fourth the number

Let the unknown number be x

two third of the number is $\frac{2}{3} x$

10 less than two third the number becomes

$\frac{2}{3}x-10$

one fourth the number becomes $\frac{1}{4}x$

10 less than two thirds the number is one fourth the number

$\frac{2}{3}x-10=\frac{1}{4}x$

We need to solve for x

LCD is 3*4 = 12

Multiply the whole equation by 12

$\frac{2*12}{3}x-10*12=\frac{1*12}{4}x$

8x - 120 = 3x

add 120 on both sides

8x = 3x + 120

Subtract 3x on both sides

5x = 120

divide by 5 on both sides

x= 24

Which is the focus of a parabola with equation y2 = 4x?

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

(1, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write this as y^2 = 4x; the " ^ " indicates exponentiation.

The appropriate equation for a horizontal parabola that opens to the right is

y^2 = 4px

Here, we are told that y^2 = 4x; this tells us that 4p = 4, and so p = 1.

Again, this parabola is a horizontal one and it opens to the right. p = 1 is the distance of the focus from the vertex, and in this case p = 1. Thus, the focus is at (1, 0) (situated on the x-axis).
