Mary’s yard is a mess. She needs to hire someone to prune her trees and shrubs. A landscaping service she calls quotes her a pri

ce of $15 consultation fee plus $8 an hour for the actual work. Mary’s neighbor has offered to help her out. She doesn’t charge a consultation fee, but does charge $10 an hour for her work. Who do you think Mary should hire for a 3-hour job? When, if at all, would it be more economical to hire the other service. (Set up and solve a system of equations to answer this question.) a. Mary should hire her neighbor; if there was more than 7.5 hours of work she should hire the landscaping service. b. Mary should hire her neighbor; if there was more than 4.2 hours of work she should hire the landscaping service. c. Mary should hire the landscaping service; if there was more than 7.5 hours of work she should hire her neighbor. d.

Answer:

Please mark me brainliest and I hoped this helped!

She should ask her neighbor to help her.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use equations to help us figure out this answer.

8x + 15 = y

10x = y

If she has a 3 hour job, we can use 3 instead of x.

8(3) + 15 = y

24 + 15 = y

30 = y for the landscaping service

10(3) = y

30 = y for a neighbors help

It will cost her 9 dollars less, so she should go with the neighbor.

What is the area of a circle?
Andru [333]

The area of a circle is the size of the 2-dimensional space inside the circle's
closed curved boundary.

The area can be calculated in terms of known linear measurements of the circle:

-- Area  =  (π) x (radius)²

-- Area  =  (π/4) x (diameter)²

-- Area  =  (1/2) x (circumference) x (radius)

-- Area  =  (1/4) x (circumference) x (diameter)

Any of these formulas will give you the area.  The one you decide to use
just depends on what you already know about the circle.

A family plans a road trip from Fairbanks to Newbury. The distance between the two cities is 240 miles when traveling on the hig
alex41 [277]

Using proportions, it is found that the family will drive 482.8 km on the new route.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, the family travels a distance of 125% of 240 miles, hence the distance is:

D = 1.25 x 240 = 300 miles.

Since there are are approximately <u>48.28 kilometers in 30 miles</u>, and 300/30 = 10, the distance in kilometers is given by:

D = 48.28 x 10 = 482.8 km.
