Answer:
(a) 12 hours
(b) $220
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) First we plug in $364 for C
C=76+24h
364=76+24h
Subtract 76 from both sides
24h=288
Divide both sides by 24
h=12
She spent 12 hours fixing the drain
(b) First we plug 6 hours in for h
C=76+24(6)
Multiply it out
C=76+144
Add
C=220
It costs $220 for fixing a drain that takes 6 hours
Answer:
13 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 2 and b = -3
so the question asks whats.... a^3 - b^3/5
First we plug in the values of a and b
(2)^3 - (-3)^3 /5
Now we solve the ones in paranthesis first
(2)^3 = 8 because 2×2×2 and
-(-3)^3 forget about the - outside the parenthesis so
(-3)^3 = (-27) because (-3)×(-3)×(-3)
now we put it back together
8 -(-27)/5
the two minus become plus so
8 + 27/5
Now we solve it like fractions
8 and 27/5
simplify
13 and 2/5

With even just two points, you can find the equation of a line in slope-intercept form.
Slope-intercept form: 
where 
is the slope and 
is the y-intercept
<u>1) Solve for the slope (</u><u>)</u>
The equation to solve for the slope is 
when the two points are 
and 
. Plug the coordinates of these points into the equation and solve for .
Then, plug into .
<u>1) Solve for the y-intercept (</u><u>)</u>
Then, take any of the given points and plug it into along with the slope. Isolate to get the y-intercept. Then, plug both m and b back into to get your final equation.
I hope this helps!
I'm assuming the 59% achievement means, markup, so hmmmm well, if the bananas cost him $0.24 or 24cents per pound, so a markup of 59% is just 59% of 0.24 then.
whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.
therefore, 59% of 0.24 is just (59/100) * 0.24, or 0.1416.
so, if we add 0.1416 to the 0.24, the selling price will be 0.3816, or just 38cents per pound of bananas.
