Hey!

Hope this helps...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay to answer this question we are assuming ONE major thing, that ALL 3 secretaries are considered "normal secretaries", and that they ALL type 80 words per minute... Now after assuming that, here is some stuff we know...

Each Secretary types 80 words per minute...

We need to find how long it would take them to type 36,000 words...

By knowing this information, we can now proceed to the problem at hand...

80 * 3 = 240 words written <em>(</em><em>on average</em><em>)</em><em> </em>per minute

36,000 / 240 = 150 minutes to write 36,000 words

150 / 60 = 2.5 hours to write 36,000 words

2.5 hours <em>Converts to:</em> 2 hours and 30 minutes

So...

The answer is, It would take 3 secretaries, 2 hours and 30 minutes to write 36,000 words

Naysha listens to the radio for five-sixths of an hour each day. which expressions represent the time naysha spends listening to

Yakvenalex [24]

The time Natasha listens to the radio can be represented as 7 times five sixths, 35/6 or 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6.

<h3>How to find out the time Natasha listens to the radio in one week?</h3>

Time per day: 5/6 of an hour
Time per week: 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 = 35/6

or 5/6 x 7 = 35/6

<h3>How to represent this?</h3>

There are three options:

5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6
35/6
5/6 x 7

Graphing Exponential Functions In Exercise, sketch the graph of the function.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The graph of the function $f(x) = (1/2)^2x + 4$ is attached as image below.

Analysis:

We have two intersection points in the graph

The function $f(x) = (1/2)^2x + 4$ intersects the y-axis at points (0,4)

The function $f(x) = (1/2)^2x + 4$ intersects the x-axis at points (-16,0)

f(x) is positive for x>-`16

f(x) is negative for x<-`16

What is the midpoints of a segment whose endpoints are (-3, 8) and (7, -2) ?

Sidana [21]

$M = (\frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2}}{2})$
$M = (\frac{7 - (-3)}{2}, \frac{-2 + 8}{2})$
$M = (\frac{7 - 3}{2}, \frac{6}{2})$
$M = (\frac{4}{2}, 3)$
$M = (2, 3)$
