Mathematics
1 answer:
Bumek [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let y represent number of years...

9 ft tall = (12 * 9) = 108 inches

10 ft tall = (12 * 10) = 120 inches

Type A : 9 ft (or 108 inches) and grows 6 inches per year..

108 + 6y

Type B : 10 ft (or 120 inches) and grows 3 inches per yr

120 + 3y

how many years will it take them to be the same height...so when will they be equal....so set them equal and solve for y

108 + 6y = 120 + 3y

6y - 3y = 120 - 108

3y = 112

y = 112/3

y = 37 1/3 years....or 37 years and 4 months <====

check...

108 + 6(37 1/3) = 120 + 3(37 1/3)

108 + 6(112/3) = 120 + 3(112/3)

108 + 672/3 = 120 + 336/3

672/3 - 336/3 = 120 - 108

336/3 = 112

112 = 112 (correct)

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

$8.8 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the equation is simple.

Time (hours) * Money (per hour) = Total

We know the time he worked for and the total amount he earned, so just replace in this equation and find the unknown number

12.5 * money = 110

To find the money he earns per hour we should just simply divide the total amount he earned by the hours he spent working

money = 110/12.5

money = 8.8$

You can also check it out to make sure it's correct.

If he earns 8.8$ per hour and worked for 12.5 hours how much he'll earn? Let's find out

8.8 * 12.5 =?

8.8 * 12.5 = 110, the same total amount so our solution must be correct.
