Can somebody please solve question 11 for me?

Sofia is working two summer jobs, making $12 per hour babysitting and making $8 per hour clearing tables. In a given week, she c

Mamont248 [21]

The possible values for the number of whole hours clearing tables that she must work to meet her requirements is 2, 3 hours

Solution:

Amount earned in babysitting = $ 12 per hour

Amount earned in clearing tables = $ 8 per hour

In a given week, she can work a maximum of 17 total hours and must earn a minimum of $180

Sofia worked 14 hours babysitting

Therefore,

Amount earned at babysitting = 14 x 12 = 168

Thus, Sofia earned $ 168 at babysitting

Sofia must earn a minimum of $ 180

Remaining amount to be earned = 180 - 168 = 12

Thus, Sofia must earn $ 12 from clearing tables

Amount earned in clearing tables = $ 8 per hour

So, she must work for atleast 1.5 hours to get $ 12 from clearing tables

She can work a maximum of 17 total hours and Sofia worked 14 hours babysitting

Remaining is 17 - 14 = 3 hours

Thus possible values for the number of whole hours clearing tables that she must work to meet her requirements is 2 hours or 3 hours

Owen is fishing from a dock he starts with the bait 2 feet below the surface he reels out the boat 19 feet then reels it back in

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The bait is 14 feet below the water surface

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the final position of the bait relative to the surface of the water.

Firstly, he starts with the bait at 2 feet below the water surface. The reels out the bait a further 19 feet, the new position of the bait relative to the water surface will be 2 + 19 = 21 feet

Now, he reels the bait back by 7 feet.

Thus, the new depth of the bait relative to the water surface will be 21-7 = 14 feet

Use the drop-down menus to compare −2.25 and −3.

Kisachek [45]

-2.5>-3 because the bigger a negative number is like -15,-18, etc the smaller it’s value actually gets so -2.5 is greater because it is closer to 0 on a number line.

Mai's mother was 28 when Mai was born. Mai is now 12 years old. In how many years will Mai's mother be twice Mai's Age

noname [10]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of years

In x years, Mai's mother's age will be: 28 + x

and Mai's age will be: 12 + x

Then, 28 + x = 2(12 + x)

Distribute the 2 28 + x = 24 + 2x

Subtract 24 from each side 4 + x = 2x

Subtract x from each side x = 4

In four years, Mai's mother will be twice Mai's age.

Check:

28 + 4 = 2(12 + 4)

32 = 2 × 16

32 = 32

Which is largest 3.3 times 10^5 or 3.1 times 10^5

erik [133]

Answer: 3.3 times 10^5 is bigger

Step-by-step explanation: 10^5= 10*10*10*10*10=100,000.

so 100,000 multiplied by 3.3 = 330,000

or 3.1 multiplied by 100,000 = 310,000 so it's obvious that 330,000 is bigger.
