For this case we have that the variable "x" represents the number of hours that Leticia uses to take care of children on Saturday.

IF on Friday I use 4 hours ($ 8 each) and on Saturday "x" hours ($ 8 each) obtaining a profit of $ 72, we have the following equation:

$8 (4 + x) = 72$

We apply distributive property:

$32 + 8x = 72\\8x = 72-32\\8x = 40\\x = \frac {40} {8}\\x = 5$

So, on Saturday she spent 5 hours.

Answer:

$8 (4 + x) = 72\\x = 5$

Answer:

Option A.

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the amount of hours Leticia babysat on Saturday.

We know that she charges $8 per hour to babysit, she babysat Friday night for 4 hours and the total amount of money she earned on those two days was $72. Knowing this, we can set up the followin equation models this situation:

$8(4+x)=72$

Finally, we must solve for "x":

$8(4+x)=72\\\\32+8x=72\\\\8x=72-32\\\\8x=40\\\\x=\frac{40}{8}\\\\x=5$

A weight hangs from a spring attached to a ceiling, and the weight moves up and down. The table shows the distance in centimeter

It seemed like it should have been so simple. There was nothing inherently difficult with getting the project done. It was simple and straightforward enough that even a child should have been able to complete it on time, but that wasn't the case. The deadline had arrived and the project remained unfinished.

$x+y=k\implies y=k-x$

Substitute this into the parabolic equation,

$k-x=6-(x-3)^2\implies x^2-7x+(k+3)=0$

We're told the line $x+y=k$ intersects $C$ twice, which means the quadratic above has two distinct real solutions. Its discriminant must then be positive, so we know

$(-7)^2-4(k+3)=49-4(k+3)>0\implies k$

We can tell from the quadratic equation that $C$ has its vertex at the point (3, 6). Also, note that

$-1\le\sin t\le1\implies3\le3+2\sin t\le5\implies3\le x\le5$

and

$-1\le\cos2t\le1\implies2\le4+2\cos2t\le6\implies2\le y\le6$

so the furthest to the right that $C$ extends is the point (5, 2). The line $x+y=k$ passes through this point for $2+5=k\implies k=7$ . For any value of $k$ , the line $x+y=k$ passes through $C$ either only once, or not at all.

So $7\le k$ ; in set notation,

$\{k\mid 7\le k$
