Answer:

  h = 13.333 +693.333/r

Step-by-step explanation:

For h hours, Brandee's pay will be ...

  pay = 40r +(h -40)(1.5r) . . . . 40 hours at rate r + overtime (h-40) hours at 1.5r

  pay = 40r +1.5hr -60r . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  pay = 1.5hr -20r . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

Solving for h, we have ...

  pay +20r = 1.5hr . . . . . . . . . . add 20r

  h = (pay +20r)/(1.5r) . . . . . . . . divide by 1.5r

For the given pay of 800 +240 = 1040, we have ...

  h = (1040 +20r)/(1.5r)

  h = 13.333 +693.333/r . . . . . simplify to 2 terms

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

You need to know r to find the number of hours Brandee worked. She got paid $800 for a presumed 40-hours of regular time, so made r = $20 per hour. The above formula will tell you she worked 48 hours in the pay period.

What is the measure of angle R?
Alika [10]

Answer:

m<R = 22.62°

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = R

Opposite = 5 cm

Hypotenuse = 13 cm

Apply the trigonometric function SOH:

Sin R = Opp/Hyp

Sin (R) = \frac{5}{13}

R = sin^{-1}(\frac{5}{13})

R = 22.6198649°

m<R = 22.62° (nearest hundredth)

Which shows the expression below in simplified form?
Kisachek [45]

Answer: C. 3.2 × 10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

for this case the multiplication of the values with exponent are summed, as the exponent are the 6 and -3

6 - 3 = 3

this will be the exponent of the common value which is the 10.

after you only need to multiply 8 and 4 by separate the

8 * 4 = 32.

then we only need to place the values one by one

32 × 10^3

3 is the result of the sum of the exponent.

10 is the common value.

32 is the result of the product.

if we add another zero to the multiplication we get 3.2 and exponent finish with one more zero, then we get this result

3.2 × 10^4

because of that the C is the correct answer, keep in mind that the other answers do not apply correctly the rule of the exponent, because the rest of answer give us wrong answer with final result of the exponent.
