Answer:

b) $49

Step-by-step explanation:

The question here is not if Alexis can mow the lawn faster or slower than the person who hires (actually, the time that the person hired took to mow the lawn is irrelevant).

The important part is the time Alexis can save hiring someone:

  • Alexis mow her lawn in 30 minutes.
  • Alexis earns $100 an hour. Then 30 minutes of her time is worthy $50.

Then, paying $50 or less is a good choice for Alexis.

Therefore the answer is b) $49.

Find the measures of x and y
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

x = 159; y = 140

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 40

a + y = 180

y = 180 - 40

y = 140

b = 61

b = (180 - x) + a

61 = 180 - x + 40

x = 159

saw5 [17]

Answer:

Actual width = 5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of 1.2 to 1  equals the ratio of length to width.

1.2 / 1  = 6 / w  where w is the actual width.

1.2w = 6

w = 6/1.2

w = 5.

GrogVix [38]

Take the root of both sides of the equation.
y = ^3 √64
Calculate the root.
y = 4

In the end, when you substitute y for 4,
4^3 will get you 64.
