Answer:
a. $45 an hour
b. 5.25 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The plumber charges $75 per job, so it is irrelevant to the number of hours they work. 45(h) is $45 multiplied by the number of hours they work.
b.
First, plug the numbers into the equation, the cost being C(h):
311.25 = 45(h) + 75
Next, subtract $75 as it is a set price that is always payed:
236.25 = 45(h)
Then, divide both sides by 45 to find how many hours were worked:
h = 5.25
Hours = $5.25
For this case we must resolve the following inequality:
Applying distributive property on the left side of inequality we have:
Subtracting 5 from both sides of the inequality:
Subtracting 4x from both sides of the inequality:
Thus, the result is 
Answer:
Let 
denote the <em>k</em>th term of the sequence. Then
where <em>d</em> is the common difference between consecutive terms in the sequence and <em>a</em>₁ is the first term.
The sum of the first <em>n</em> terms is
From the formula for , we get
So we have 
, and 
so that 
.
Then the <em>n</em>th term in the sequence is
Answer:
c = (d/a) - b
Step-by-step explanation:
a(c + b) = d
Divide both sides by a
c + b = d/a
subtract b from both sides
c = (d/a) - b
