Let's make,
mechanic #1's rate = x
mechanic #2's rate = y
* Their rate is dollars per hour ($/hr)
mechanic #1 worked for 20 hours (hr × $/hr = $)
20x = money earned by mech#1
and mechanic #2 worked for 5 hours
5y = money earned by mech#2
together they charged a total of $1150. So the amount of money earned by both mechanics.
20x + 5y = 1150
the sum of the two rates was $95 per hour.
x + y = 95
which means
x = 95 - y
plug (95 - y) in for "x" in the other equation to get everything in terms of one variable.
20(95 - y) + 5y = 1150
solve for y
1900 - 20y + 5y = 1150
1900 - 15y = 1150
-15y = 1150 - 1900
-15y = -750
y = -750/-15
y = 50 $/hr
Now use this to solve for x
x + y = 95
x + 50 = 95
x = 95 - 50
x = 45 $/hr
mech#1 charged 45$/hr
mech #2 charged 50$/hr
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
First you make sure x is on both sides of the equation. So you do 0.7x-5-0.2x=0.2x+1-0.2x. Which just simplifies to 0.5x-5=1. You make sure x is the only thing on that side of the equation so you do 0.5x-5+5=1+5 which simplifies to 0.5x=6. Multiply the equation times 2 to just have x. x=12. The value that makes true of x is 12.
1) y= - 2x² + 8x. It's a parabola open downward (a<0)
2) x - 2.23.y + 10.34 = 0 . Re-write it : y = (x/2.23) + (10.34/2.23), a linear equation.
To find the intersections between 1) & 2), let 1) = 2)
-2x² + 8x = (x/2.23) + (10.34/2.23)
-2x² + 8x - (x/2.23) - (10.34/2.23) =0 ; solve this quadratic for x values:
x' (that is A) = 0.772 & x" (that is B) = 3. (these are the values of x-intercept (parabola with line). To calculate the y-values, plug x' & x' in the equation:
for x' = 0.772, y = 0.34 → B(0.772 , 0.34)
for x" = 3, y = 0.016 → A(3 , 0.O16)
So B IS AT 0.34 Unit from the ground
Total area = 104+24 = 128 sq.in , Option C is the right answer.
The missing figure is attached with the answer.
<h3>What is Area ?</h3>
The space occupied by a two dimensional figure is called Area.
The figure given in the question can be divided into two figure
A rectangle of 8 * 13 inch
and a triangle of 8 * 6 inch
The area of a rectangle is given by
Length * Breadth
8 * 13
= 104 sq.inch
The area of the triangle is given by
(1/2) * base * height
= (1/2) * 8 * 6
= 24 sq.inch
Total area = 104+24 = 128 sq.in
Therefore Option C is the right answer.
