Answer:

The hourly wage is $8.55 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine the expression for the gross pay

Total gross pay=(Unit rate per hour×number of hours(≤40))+(Overtime rate×number of overtime hours)

where;

Total gross pay=$380.48

Unit rate per hour=x

Number of hours=40 hours

Overtime rate=x×(1 1/2)=1.5 x

Number of overtime hours=3 hours

Step 2: Replace to solve for hourly wage

380.48=(x×40)+(1.5 x)×3

40 x+4.5 x=380.48

44.5 x=380.48

x=380.48/44.5

x=8.55

The hourly wage is $8.55 per hour

The diameter of Circle terminates on the circumference of the circle at​ (3,0) and (3,−7).. Write the equation of the circle in
Verdich [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

that means the center of the circle is exactly in the middle between the 2 points.

and since both points have the same x value (so, the diameter here is a vertical line), it is ready to get the y value of the middle : (-7 - 0) / 2 = -3.5

so, the coordinates of the center are (3, -3.5).

and that makes the standard circle equation

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

to

(x - 3)² + (y + 3.5)² = 3.5² = 12.25

as h, k are the coordinates of the center, and r is the radius (half the diameter).

A rocket is launched into the air. The height h(t), in yards, of the rocket is a function of time, t, in seconds, as shown in th
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change is the same thing as the slope.  Because this is parabolic, we cannot find the exact rate of change as we could if this were a linear function.  But we can use the same idea.  When t = 3, h(t) = 33, so the coordinate point is (3, 33).  When t = 6, h(t) = 0, so the coordinate is (6, 0).  Plug those values into the slope formula:

m=\frac{0-33}{6-3} and

m=\frac{-33}{3} which is -11

From 3 to 6 seconds, the rocket is falling 11 yards per second.

The table shows the price for shoe rental, games, and snacks at the bowling alley
monitta
First, find the total price she would have had to pay (without tax):
2.75+ 3(2.5)+ 1.75=12
If she has half-price multiply the total price by 0.5:
12(.5)=6
Her total price without tax is $6.

The answer is B) $6.00
