Option b) 1960 is the total number of hours the electrician worked.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

It is given that, the full-time electrician will work 40 hours per week.

So, we need to know the total number of hours he could work in twelve months which is one year.

Therefore, one year has a total of 365 days.

<u>To find the number of weeks in twelve months :</u>

Number of weeks = Total days in one year / 7 days of week

⇒ 365 / 7

⇒ 52.14 (approximately 52 weeks)

The number of weeks in twelve months is 52 weeks.

Now, of this 52 weeks, the three weeks are given as vacation.

The total number of weeks the electrician worked = 52 weeks - 3 weeks

⇒ 49 weeks.

The electrician worked for 49 weeks.

To calculate the total number of hours he worked = 49 weeks × 40 hours

⇒ 1960 hours.

Therefore, the  total number of hours the electrician worked is 1960 hours which is option b).

Solve y
Ksivusya [100]

The value of y in -3 = 7\left(y-\dfrac97\right) is 6/7

<h3>How to solve for y?</h3>

The equation is given as:

-3 = 7\left(y-\dfrac97\right)

Open the bracket

-3 = 7y - 9

Add 9 to both sides of the equation

7y = 6

Divide both sides by 7

y= 6/7

Hence, the value of y in -3 = 7\left(y-\dfrac97\right) is 6/7

Jordan will hike the trail shown at a rate of ​mi/h. Write a linear equation to represent the distance Jordan still has to walk
agasfer [191]

Answer:

<em>y = (-mi/h)x + b</em>

y = total distance left to cover

-mi/h = speed at wich he is covering ground

b = the total distance to cover from start to finish

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope Intercept form without other variables filled is shown like this with <em>mx </em>being the slope and <em>b </em>being the y intercept

<em>y = mx + b</em>

all we need to do is fill in known variables with hours multiplied by <em>x </em>represented as <em>m</em>...

<em>y = (-mi/h)x + b</em>

note the negative symbol, this shows that the higher that miles an hour (mi/h) aka speed is, the more distance he will cover REDUCING the distance to cover faster meaning the line will slope DOWNWARD

<em>b</em> would be the the total distance that he has started with, meaning on the point where the line crosses the y axis, the number it crosses at will represent how much he has started with
