Answer:

Regular hourly rate for Brandon is $30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the payment for regular hours be $x

given that

Brandon is paid 150% of his regular hourly rate for overtime hours

payment for overtime hours = 150% of payment for regular hours

payment for overtime hours = 150/100 * x = 3x/2

Given that He is paid \$45.00 an hour for overtime hours

thus,

3x/2 = 45

=> x = 45*2/3 = 30

Thus,  regular hourly rate for Brandon is $30

The perimeters of the square and the triangle shown below are equal. What is the value of x?
Rudiy27
Perimeter is the sum of all the sides. So we can set up an equation:

\sf 3x+1+3x+1+3x+1+3x+1=2x+8+x+8+4x+2

Now solve for 'x', combine like terms:

When it comes to terms with variables it's just like normal addition but we keep the variable:

\sf 3x+3x+3x+3x=12x
\sf 2x+x+4x=7x

So we have:

\sf 12x+1+1+1+1=7x+8+8+2

Add:

\sf 12x+4=7x+18

Subtract 7x to both sides:

\sf 5x+4=18

Subtract 4 to both sides:

\sf 5x=14

Divide 5 to both sides:

\boxed{\sf x=2.8}

Scientists modeled the intensity of the sun, I, as a function of the number of hours since 6:00 a.m., h, using the
MAVERICK [17]

The functions are illustrations of composite functions.

<em>The soil temperature at 2:00pm is 67</em>

The given parameters are:

\mathbf{I(h) =\frac{12h - h^2}{36}} ---- the function for sun intensity

\mathbf{T(I) =\sqrt{5000I}} -- the function for temperature

At 2:00pm, the value of h (number of hours) is:

\mathbf{h = 2:00pm - 6:00am}

\mathbf{h = 8}

Substitute 8 for h in \mathbf{I(h) =\frac{12h - h^2}{36}}, to calculate the sun intensity

\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{12 \times 8 - 8^2}{36}}

\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{32}{36}}

\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{8}{9}}

Substitute 8/9 for I in \mathbf{T(I) =\sqrt{5000I}}, to calculate the temperature of the soil

\mathbf{T(8/9) =\sqrt{5000 \times 8/9}}

\mathbf{T(8/9) =\sqrt{4444.44}}

\mathbf{T(8/9) =66.67}

Approximate

\mathbf{T(8/9) =67}

Hence, the soil temperature at 2:00pm is 67

What is the midpoint of (-23,-14) and (-18,2)
zloy xaker [14]

Given two coordinates point 1 as (-23,-14) and point 2 as(-18,2).

To find the midpoint we would use the formula below;

\text{midpoint(x,y)}=(\frac{x_1+x_2_{}_{}}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Where x1=-23, x2=-18, y1=-14, y2=2

We would substitute the values into the midpoint formula.

\begin{gathered} \text{midpoint =(}\frac{-23-18}{2},\frac{-14+2}{2}) \\ =(-\frac{41}{2},-6) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is

\text{midpoint}=(-\frac{41}{2},-6)

A rectangle has a length four more than
torisob [31]
L ≥ 5w + 4
2(L+w) ≥ 32

L+w ≥ 16

6w + 4 ≥ 16
6w ≥ 12
w ≥ 2

L ≥ 5w + 4
L ≥ 14

If L = 14 and w = 2 then the perimeter is 32.
These are the smallest dimensions that fit the criteria.

Note: If we raise the width by 1 to w = 3
then the length is at least 19. At 19 by 3 we have P = 44
Like would be appreciated!!
