Business A charges $50 for a service call, plus an additional $39 per hour for labor. Business B charges $32 for a service call, plus an additional $45 per hour for labor.Let x represent the number of hours of labor and let y represent the total charge.

Answer: 50 + 39x(1) = y

32 + 45x(2) = y

Business A, because it is faster

Step-by-step explanation: from business A it is said they charge 50 for a service call plus an additional 39 per hour, so labelling x as number of hour we will get 39x then adding it to 50 to get the total amount of charge which is y, and I put (1) and (2) after x to differentiate the x for business A and B, applying the same explanation for business B we get the two equations

50 + 39x(1) = y

32 + 45x(2) = y

So the two equations equals to y, we equate both equations

50 + 39x(1) = 32 + 45x(2)

Now we assume that x(1) = 1

So

50 + 39(1) = 32 + 45x(2)

57 = 45x(2)

x(2) = 57/45

x(2) = 19/15

So since it's a time value, we make the denominator into 60

x(2) = 19/15 x 4/4

x(2) = 76/60 hour = 76 minutes = 1hour 16mintes

So this means that for every hour business A takes for the service call, business B takes an hour and 16minutes

So I will take business A because it is faster than business B

Find the remainder when f(x) = x3 − 14x2 + 7x − 10 is divided by x − 3. 184 164 −88 −122
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

122

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we must build a quotient that, when multiplied by the divisor, eliminates the terms of the divide until it reaches the remainder.

It must be fulfilled that:

Dividend = Quotient * Divisor + Remainder

we have that the remainder is 122.

have a good day
