Answer:
12 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
base fee= $60
charge per hour= $15
let the number of hours the plumber work be x
the linear function for the charge is the equation of line.
that is y=mx+c
Step two:
given that y=$240
240=15x+60
240-60=15x
180=15x
divide both sides by 15 we have
x=180/15
x=12
<u>The number of hours is 12</u>
1. This must be greater than or equal to 0 (there can't be any negatives!)
8 - .5t ≥ 0.
8 ≥ .5t
t ≤ 16
D.
2. 4(2x-1) = 2x + 35
8x - 4 = 2x + 35
6x = 39
x = 6.5
H.
3. c = .8(x-15) = .8x-12
A.
4. m = number of marble cupcakes
s = number of strawberry shortcake cupcakes
6m + 8.5s = 391
m = 1/2s
6(.5s)+8.5s = 391
11.5s = 391
s = 34
m = 17
F.
5. B
6. Use substitution
2x + 3x = 10
5x = 10
x = 2
7. (sorry I'm not sure!)
8. G
9. L = number of balls
B = number of bats
L + B = 100
B = 100 - L
4.5L+20B = 822
4.5L + 20(100-L) = 822
4.5L -20L + 2000 = 822
1178 = 15.5L
L = 76
10. J

Answer:
<em><u>x=-6, y=-2</u></em>, (As a point) (-6, -2).....The point form is not necessary unless you want to solve the system (of equations) by graphing.
Step-by-step explanation:
By substitution:
x-y=-4 By adding y on both sides,
x=y-4
Now you can substitute x for the expression (y-4)
Plug the (y-4) as x in the other equation.
So -2x+3y=6 becomes
-2(y-4)+3y=6
Now solve:
-2(y-4)+3y=6 distributes out to be
-2y+8+3y=6 Now combining like terms
y+8=6 Subtract 8 on both sides to isolate the variable
<u><em>y=-2</em></u>
Now plug the value -2 in where the y is in any equation (preferably the easier/less complicated one) and solve for x.
So x-y=-4 becomes
x-(-2)=-4
=x+2=-4
=<u><em>x=-6</em></u>
