<h3>Given</h3>
  • 40% of work week is 16 hours
<h3>Find</h3>
  • hours in work week
<h3>Solution</h3>

Write the given information as an equation.

... 0.40 × (work week) = 16 hours

Divide by the factor you don't want (0.40).

... (work week) = (16/0.40) hours

... work week = 40 hours

_____

40% means 40/100 (forty hundredths) or 0.40 (forty hundredths). (The % symbol is a shorthand way to write /100.)

What is the y-intercept of function f?
Andru [333]

Answer:

y intercept = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=5•(1/6)^x

The y intercept is when x =0

Let x =0

f(0)=5•(1/6)^0      

= 5* 1     = 5

The y intercept is 5

If the question is

f(x)=5•(1/6)x

although I have never seen the question written this way

The y intercept is when x =0

Let x =0

f(0)=5•(1/6)0      

= 5* 0     = 0

The y intercept is 0

<h3>Answer:</h3>

  • walking speed: 2 mph
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let w represent Lizette's walking speed. Then her running speed is w+6. The relationship between speed, time, and distance is ...

  distance = speed × time

Lizette ran for 1.5 hours, then walked for 3 hours. Her total distance is ...

  (w+6)·1.5 + w·3 = 18

  4.5w + 9 = 18 . . . . . simplify

  4.5w = 9 . . . . . . . . . subtract 9

  w = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 4.5

Lizette's walking speed is 2 mph; her running speed is 8 mph.
