Answer:

5 hours 22 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent the number of hours that Jeri worked as: h

Jeri's lawn service charges an initial fee of $4.50 plus $3 an hour

= $4.50 + $3 × h

= $4.50 + 3h

If she is asked to start before 7 a.m. Jeri charges 1.5 times the regular amount.

= 1.5 × ($4.50 + 3h)

If she made $29.25 on a job that began at 5 am, how many hours did Jeri work?

Hence, we have the final equation;

= 1.5 × ($4.50 + 3h) = $29.25

= 6.75 + 4.5h = 29.25

Collect like terms

= 4.5h = 29.25 - 6.75

4.5h = 22.5

h = 22.5/4.5

h = 5.3571428571

Approximately= 5.36 hours

1 hour = 60 minutes

0.36 hour =

60 × 0.36

= 21.6 minutes

Approximately ≈ 22 minutes

Therefore, Jeri worked for 5 hours 22 minutes

Through what angle does the minute hand of a clock turn in 12 minutes of time?
harina [27]
A method to solve such problems is to consider the rate of change of the angle in degrees per minute. The hour hand of a normal 12-hour analogue clock turns 360° in 12 hours (720 minutes) or 0.5° per minute. The minute hand rotates through 360° in 60 minutes or 6° per minute.

Can someone please answer this for me i cant figure it out.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

\displaystyle x^{\frac{2}{3}}

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The rules of exponents tell you ...

... (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c) . . . . . . applies inside parentheses

... (a^b)^c = a^(b·c) . . . . . . . . applies to the overall expression

The Order of Operations tells you to evaluate inside parentheses first. Doing that, you have ...

... x^(4/3)·x^(2/3) = x^((4+2)/3) = x^2

Now, you have ...

... (x^2)^(1/3)

and the rule of exponents tells you to multiply the exponents.

... = x^(2·1/3) = x^(2/3)
