Answer:

  • 250 hours doing cleanups
  • 150 hours painting

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the number of hours spent painting. Then the hours spent doing cleanups can be represented by 400-p, and total earnings are ...

  12p +8(400 -p) = 3800

  4p +3200 = 3800 . . . . . . simplify

  4p = 600 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3200; next, divide by 4

  p = 150 . . . . . . . . . . . hours spent painting

  (400-p) = 250 . . . . . hours doing cleanups

This is what irrational means:
A number that cannot be expressed as a ratio between two integers and is not an imaginary number. If written in decimal notation, an irrational<span> number would have an infinite number of digits to the right of the decimal point, without repetition.

How to do step by step?
lorasvet [3.4K]
We know the opposite side (10) and the adjacent side (7), so we can use tangent to find angle B.  Since tan = opposite side/adjacent side, we can set up this equation: tan(B) = 10/7.  We can get B on its own by making the equation this: B = tan^{-1} (10/7)

Now, we plug this into our calculator to get:

B = 55°, so angle B is 55°.

Let me know if you need any more help!

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the maximum point, differentiate:

D' = -8p +160

Set to zero and solve for p:

D' = 0

⇒ -8p +160 = 0

⇒ 8p = 160

⇒ p = 20

Input p = 20 into the original equation to find D:

D = -4(20)² + 160(20) -310 = 1290

Therefore, the price is $20 and the maximum number of drills is 1,290
