Total speed was 1048 mi/(8 h) = 131 mi/h. The car was traveling at half this speed plus half the difference, (131 +19)/2 = 75 mi/h.

The truck was traveling at 75 mi/h -19 mi/h = 56 mi/h.

Answer:

m<BCD  is 62 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram given, both triangles are similar triangles and triangle CAB is isosceles in nature;

Hence;

m<CAB = m<CBA

Also

m<CAB + m<CBA = m<BCD

31 + 31 = m<BCD

Swap

m<BCD = 31 + 31

m<BCD  = 62 degrees

hence the measure of m<BCD  is 62 degrees

soldi70 [24.7K]
<span>1) First, you need to calculate the total labor cost: 2 workers * $8/(hour) * 40 hour / worker = $640. 2) Second, now you can calculate how much percent is 640 of the revenue, 2000: [640 / 2000] * 100 = 32%. 3) And the answer is that the labor cost is 32% of the revenue.</span>

A landscaping business bought 8 rose bushes and 15 daylilies for $193. They went back later and bought 3 more rose bushes and 12
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Each daylilies  cost $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

let roses be x

and daylilies be y

so

8x+15y=193--------------1

also

3x+12y=117--------------2

we can solve equations 1 and 2 by substitution

8x=193-15y

x=(193-15y)/8

put x= (193-15y)/8  in 3x+12y=117

3((193-15y)/8)+12y=117

(579-45y)/8+12y=117

579-45y=8(117-12y)

579-45y=936-96y

collect like terms

579-936=-96y+45y

-357=-51y

divide both sides by -51

y=-357/-51

y=7

Hence each daylilies  cost $7

put y=7 in eqn 1

8x+15(7)=193

8x+105=193

8x=193-105

8x=88

x=88/8

x=11

rose cost $8
