Answer:

hours=1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Make an equation. Note key words like "plus", "per" and "total"

130+56h=214

where h is the total hours worked. Solve for h:

Subtract 130 from both sides and simplify

130-130+56h=214-130\\56h=214-130\\56h=84

Divide both sides by 56 to isolate the variable

\frac{56h}{56} =\frac{84}{56}\\\\h=\frac{84}{56} \\\\h=\frac{3}{2} \\\\h=1.5

The plumber worked for an hour and a half.

Done.

Answer:

The plumber worked for 1.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 130 + 56x

Substitute 214 for y in the equation

214 = 130 + 56x

-130   -130                      Subtract 130 from both sides

84 = 56x                         Divide both sides by 56

1.5 = x

.chris p. bacon worked 44 hours last week and gets double time pay for overtime. his regular pay is $14 per hour. how much was h
masha68 [24]

The total paycheck for the week is of $672 as Chris bacon work for 44 hours last week, regular pay $14 per hour and double time pay for overtime.

As given,

Regular pay per hour = $14

Overtime work payment= 2 × ($14)

Total hours work done last week = 44hours

Let regular timing be 8 hours per day 5 days a week

Total regular working hours = 8 × 5

                                           = 40 hours

Over time = 44-40

                = 4 hours

Payment check = (40 × 14)+ (4 × 28)

                         = $672

Therefore, The total paycheck for the week is of $672 as Chris bacon work for 44 hours last week.

Solve these simultaneous equations:
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

1) We have the system:

5*x - 3*y = 15

4*x + 3*y = 6

To solve this, we first need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, let's isolate x in the first equation:

x = 15/5 + (3/5)*y = 3 + (3/5)*y

Now we can replace this in the other equation to get:

4*( 3 + (3/5)*y) + 3*y = 6

and solve this for y.

12 + (12/5)*y  + 3*y = 6

(12/5 + 3)*y = 6 - 12 = -6

(12/5 + 15/5)*y = -6

(27/5)*y = -6

y = -6*(5/27) = 1.11

Now we can replace this in the equation:

x = 3 + (3/5)*y

To get the value of x.

x = 3 + (3/5)*1.11 = 3.67

Then the solution of this system is the point (3.67, 1.11)

2) Now we have the system:

2*x + 5*y = 26

4*x + 3*y = 24

The solution method is the same as before:

x = 26/2 - (5/2)*y = 13 - (5/2)*y

Now we replace this in the other equation:

4*( 13 - (5/2)*y) + 3*y = 24

52 - 10*y + 3*y = 24

52 - 7*y = 24

52 - 24 = 7*y

28 = 7*y

28/7 = y

4 = y

now we replace this in the equatio:

x = 13 - (5/2)*y

x = 13 - (5/2)*4 = 13 - 10 = 3

The solution of this sytem is (3, 4)

3) Now we have the system:

3*x + 3*y = 39

2*x - 3*y = -2

first we isolate x in the first equation:

x = 39/3 - 3*y/3 = 13 - y

Now we can replace this in the other equation:

2*(13 - y) - 3*y = -2

26 - 2*y - 3*y = -2

26 - 5*y = -2

26 + 2 = 5*y

28 = 5*y

28/5 = y = 5.6

Now we can replace this in the equation:

x = 13 - y

To get the x-value

x = 13 - 5.6 = 7.4

Then the solution for this system is (7.4, 5.6)

Drag the tiles to the boxes to form correct pairs. Not all tiles will be used. A car repair center services 920 cars in 2012. Th
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

N = 920(1+0.03)^4t

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given statement a car repair center services 920 cars in 2012. The number of cars serviced increases quarterly at a rate of 12% per year after 2012.

Rate is 12 % annually

rate in quarterly = 12/4= 3%

We will apply the compound interest equation:

N=P( 1+r/n)^nt

N= ending number of cars serviced.

P=  the number of cars serviced in 2012,

r = interest rate

n = the number of compoundings per year

t= total number of years.

Number of compoundings for t years = n*t = 4t

Initial number of cars serviced=920

The quarterly rate of growth = n=4

r = 3%

The growth rate = 1.03

Compound period multiplied by number of years = 920(1.03)^4t

Thus N = 920(1+0.03)^4t

N = number of cars serviced after t years...
