I don't agree with his statement. The first part says that he was paid $9.20 for the first 40 hours so we multiply them (9.20 x 40) to get 368. Then it says that he was paid 1.5 times that rate for every hour after that. The rate is "$9.20 per hour" so you find 1.5 times $9.20. You multiply $9.20 by 1.5 to get $13.80 per hour. Now you have to find how much money he got after the initial 40 hours. It says he worked 42.25 hours, and we already figured out how much money he got the first 40 hours ($368). So for the remaining 2.25 hours, Mr.Evens is paid $13.80 an hour. So we multiply 2.25 by $13.80 to get $31.05. To find out the total amount of money accumulated, we add. $368 + $31.05 is $399.05 which means that Mr.Evens is not correct. Hope this helped :]

Ok so the answer is No becuse if you times 40 × 9.20 =368 + 42.25 its over then divided 1.5 it equals $276.35

katrin [286]

Let:

Vbu= Volume of the buret

Vbk= Volume of the beaker

A buret initially contains 70.00 millimeters of a solution and a beaker initially contains 20.00 ml of the solution the buret drips solution into the Beaker. each drip contains 0.05 mL of solution, therefore:

x = Number of drips

a = volume of each drip

\begin{gathered} Vbu=70-ax \\ Vbk=20+ax \\ \text{where:} \\ a=0.05 \\ Vbu=70-0.05x \\ Vbk=20+0.05x \end{gathered}

after how many drips will the volume of the solution in the buret and beaker be equal ?​ Vbu = Vbk:

\begin{gathered} Vbu=Vbk \\ 70-0.05x=20+0.05x \\ \text{Solve for x:} \\ 0.1x=70-20 \\ 0.1x=50 \\ x=\frac{50}{0.1} \\ x=500 \end{gathered}

Triangle LMN is congruent to triangle HIJ. Angle L measures 35 angle M measures 65 and angle J measures 2x degrees. Find the val
Arturiano [62]
There are 180 degrees in a triangle, so what you want to do from there is make an equation 35 + 65 + 2x = 180 from there add like terms 100 + 2x = 180 then subtract 100 from 180 to get 2x alone 100 - 100 + 2x = 180 - 100
2x = 180 from there divide 2 from 180 and get the answer x = 78 degrees

-8y=24

We want to isolate y to get the value of 1y. Divide both sides by -8
y= -3

Final answer: y=-3

This is the associative property of addition (D).
It states that when adding three terms, the sum is equal no matter the grouping (parentheses).
