Working her way through school, Kathy works two part-time jobs for a total of 23 hours a week. Job A pays $5.70 per hour, and Jo

b B pays $7.00 per hour. How many hours did she work at each job the week that she made $146.70? (Round to two decimal places if necessary.)

Answer:

<u>Kathy worked 11 hours at job A and 12 hours at job B, the week she made US$ 146.70.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review all the information given for solving this question:

Rate per hour of Job A = US$ 5.70

Rate per hour of Job B = US$ 7.00

Earnings received by Kathy during the week = US$ 146.70

Total time worked by Kathy during the week = 23 hours

Hours at job A = x

Hours at job B = 23 -x

2. Let's find how many hours Katy worked at each job:

This is the equation that we'll use:

5.70x + 7 (23 - x) = 146.70

5.70x + 161 - 7x = 146.70

- 1.3x = 146.70 - 161 (Subtracting 161 at both sides)

-1.3x = - 14.30

1.3x = 14.3 (Multiplying by - 1 at both sides)

x = 14.3/1.3 = 11 (Dividing by 1.3 at both sides)

<u>Kathy worked 11 hours at job A and 12 hours at job B.</u>

3. Proof of x = 11

5.70 x + 7 (23 - x) = 146.70

5.70 (11) + 7 (23 - 11) = 146.70

62.70 + 7 (12) = 146.70

62.70 + 84 = 146.70

146.70 = 146.70

<u>The value of x = 11 is correct.</u>

Note. I provided the same answer to question 13954115.

The height is 33.

Set up the equation like this,

1056 = 32 h

Solve the one step equation and get 33.

Hope this helps!

At most, how many unique roots will a third-degree polynomial function have?
beks73 [17]

The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial with degree n has at most n solutions. The "at most" depends on the fact that the solutions might not all be real number.

In fact, if you use complex number, then a polynomial with degree n has exactly n roots.

So, in particular, a third-degree polynomial can have at most 3 roots.

In fact, in general, if the polynomial p(x) has solutions x_1,\ x_2,\ldots x_n, then you can factor it as

p(x) = (x-x_1)(x-x_2)\ldots (x-x_n)

So, a third-degree polynomial can't have 4 (or more) solutions, because otherwise you could write it as

p(x)=(x-x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)(x-x_4)

But this is a fourth-degree polynomial.
