Answer:
1 root
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear equation should only cross the x-axis at one point. That means there would only be 1 root. (Root is when y= 0)
First, we need to find his unit rate, the amount he earns in 1 hour.
So, we have to divide 28.50 by 2.
That is:
28.50 / 2 = $14.25 per hour
To find the amount he earns in 8 hours, we will need to multiply hourly rate found by "8". So,
14.25 * 8 = $114
<h2>Rolando earns $114 in 8 hours</h2>
Answer:
I hope this is correct but 8.5 or 8 1/2 Units
Let <em>q</em> be the number of quarts of pure antifreeze that needs to be added to get the desired solution.
8 quarts of 40% solution contains 0.40 × 8 = 3.2 quarts of antifreeze.
The new solution would have a total volume of 8 + <em>q</em> quarts, and it would contain a total amount of 3.2 + <em>q</em> quarts of antifreeze. You want to end up with a concentration of 60% antifreeze, which means
(3.2 + <em>q</em>) / (8 + <em>q</em>) = 0.60
Solve for <em>q</em> :
3.2 + <em>q</em> = 0.60 (8 + <em>q</em>)
3.2 + <em>q</em> = 4.8 + 0.6<em>q</em>
0.4<em>q</em> = 1.6
<em>q</em> = 4
