Question is Incomplete,Complete question is given Below.

Ben earns $9 per hour and $6 for each delivery he makes. he wants to earn more than $155 in an 8-hour workday. what is the least number of deliveries he must make to reach his goal?

Answer:

Ben must make at least 14 Deliveries to achieve his goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hourly Rate = $9 per hour

Cost of each Delivery = $6

Number of hours to be worked = 8 hours.

Money needs to be earned =$155

we need to find the number of deliveries he must make to reach his goal.

Solution :

Let number of deliveries be 'x'.

Now we can say that Hourly rate multiplied by number of hours of work plus Cost of each delivery multiplied by number of deliveries should be greater than or equal to Money needs to be earned.

Framing in equation form we get;

9\times8+6x\geq 155

Solving the equation we get;

72+6x\geq 155

Subtracting both side by 72 using Subtraction property of Inequality we get;

72+6x-72\geq 155-72\\\\6x\geq 83

Now Dividing both side by 6 using Division Property we get;

\frac{6x}{6} \geq \frac{83}{6} \\\\x\geq 13.83

Hence Ben must make at least 14 Deliveries to achieve his goal.

Evaluate each function.<br> 1) f(x) = x2 + 4x; Find f(-7)
katrin [286]

Answer:

The answer is -77

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so assuming by x2 you mean x squared, I will solve this. So basically when you have a function, f(-7) would mean that you would have to replace all the x's in the equation with -7. So let's write that out. that would be f(-7) = -7^2 + (-7*4). So now according to PEMDAS, you would solve the exponent first, and -7^2 is equal to -49, because when you solve it you would do -(7^2), which is -(49), which is then -49. So now you have f(-7)= -49+ (4*-7). Solving for (4*-7), you get -28. This leaves you with -49 + (-28), which is -49 - 28. Simplifying that, you get the answer, which is -77.
