Mr. Evens Is paid $9.20 per hour for the first 40 hours he works in a week he is paid 1.5 times that rate for each hour after th
spin [16.1K]
I don't agree with his statement. The first part says that he was paid $9.20 for the first 40 hours so we multiply them (9.20 x 40) to get 368. Then it says that he was paid 1.5 times that rate for every hour after that. The rate is "$9.20 per hour" so you find 1.5 times $9.20. You multiply $9.20 by 1.5 to get $13.80 per hour. Now you have to find how much money he got after the initial 40 hours. It says he worked 42.25 hours, and we already figured out how much money he got the first 40 hours ($368). So for the remaining 2.25 hours, Mr.Evens is paid $13.80 an hour. So we multiply 2.25 by $13.80 to get $31.05. To find out the total amount of money accumulated, we add. $368 + $31.05 is $399.05 which means that Mr.Evens is not correct. Hope this helped :]

Thomas decides on a destination for his vacation. If he takes the train there, it will take 5 1/8 hours to get there. If he take
Allisa [31]

Answer: 2 11/24

Step-by-step explanation:

How many hours does the plane save?

Time taken for the train = 5 1/8

Time taken for the plane = 2 2/3

The number of hours saved will then be:

= 5 1/8 - 2 2/3

Let the lowest common multiple be 24

= 5 3/24 - 2 16/24

= 2 11/24

The number of hours saved by the plane will be 2 11/24

The base of an isosceles triangle is one and a half times the length of the other two sides. A smaller triangle has a perimeter
stira [4]

Answer:

P = 1.5x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of each side of the first triangle be x, then

Perimeter of this triangle

= 2x + 1.5x

= 3.5x.

So perimeter of smaller triangle is:

P = 1/2 * 3.5x

P = 1,.5x.

The following are score earned by 15 college students on a 20-point math quiz. (a) calculate the mean, median, and mode scores.
Softa [21]

Answer:

(a) 12.87; 14; 18; (b) median  

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Statistics

(i) Mean

The mean is the sum of all the data points divided by the number of points.

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Mean} & = & \dfrac{0 + 2 + 3 + 12 + 12 + 13 + 14 + 14 + 15 + 15 + 18 + 18 + 18 + 19 + 20}{15}\\\\& = & \dfrac{193}{15}\\\\& = & \mathbf{12.87}\\\end{array}

(ii) Median

The median is the middle value in your list of observations.

0, 2, 3, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 15, 15, 18, 18, 18, 19, 20

Median = 14

(iii) Mode

The mode is the value that appears most often in your list of observations.

0, 2, 3, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 15, 15, 18, 18, 18, 19, 20

Mode = 18

(b) Most representative measure

The mean is dragged down by three low values. The median is the measure that is most representative of the data.

The histogram below shows the distribution of your data.
