U just have to find original amount (100%) and that is the amount he made last week.
Direct variation is y=kx, inverse variation is y=k/x....
-5y=-2x divide both sides by -5
y=2.5x
So this is a direct variation with a constant of 2.5
Answer:
$424
Step-by-step explanation:
Find area of all surfaces to be covered
20 x 30 = 600 ceiling
10 x 20 = 200 x 2 = 400 two walls
10 x 30 = 300 x = 600 other two walls
Assume no doors
total area is 1600 square feet
multiply by 2 because you are doing two coats
3200 total area to be covered
3200/400 = 8 gallons of paint x $53 = $424
The answer would be 44.7 not 44.5
4 p.m to 8 p.m is 4 hrs.....so she worked 4 regular hrs
8 p.m. to 1 a.m is 5 hrs...she she worked 5 hrs for 1.5 times as much
4x + 5(1.5x) = 92
4x + 7.5x = 92
11.5x = 92
x = 92 / 11.5
x = 8 <==== so she charged $ 8 per hr from 4 pm. to 8 pm. and (8 * 1.5) = $ 12 per hr for hrs after 8 p.m
