Answer:
1) 8= (5xW)+(3xW) (she worked 8 hours total over spread of two days)
2) 8=8xW (he worked 8 hours total over one day)
3) Yes, they worked the same number of hours, they just worked for an different amount of hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
I kind of explained it in the answer, but if you'd like a clarification.
✯<span>Let's solve this equation step-by-step!
</span>✯<span>is the question you've asked us today:
|x − 2| + 10 = 12
</span>✯<span>Add -10 to both sides:
</span><span><span><span>|x−2|</span>+10</span>+−10</span>=<span>12+<span>−10
</span></span>
✯<span>Solve Absolute Value:
</span><span>|x−2|</span>=<span>2
</span>
✯We know either:
<span>x−2=2 </span>or <span>x−2=<span>−<span>2
</span></span></span>
(Possibility 1) <span>x−2=2
</span>
(Add 2 to both sides) <span><span>x−2+2</span>=<span>2+2
</span></span>
x=<span>4
</span>
(Possibility 2) <span>x−2=<span>−2
</span></span>
(Add 2 to both sides) <span><span>x−2+2</span>=<span>−2+2</span></span>
x=<span>0
</span>
✯So since we have gotten x=4 and x=0 you answer shall be:
B. x=4 and x=0
✯I hope this helps!<span>✯</span>
Answer is J because if 3 hours is $140 and 6 hours is $185 you calculate the difference. In this case $45 and divide it by 3, which is the difference between hours with those amounts, and answer is 15. And the only one with 15 is J.
Since these are similar triangles you can use any two corresponding sides to figure out the scale factor.
Use the bottom side. Going from the first triangle to the second the scale factor is:
15/9 = 5/3
