Answer:
15.5
Step-by-step explanation:
for every hour we can say that the wage is x
hence we can create an equation:
40x + 160%*x = 644.80
now solve for x
40x + 1.6x = 644.8
41.6x = 644.8
x = 15.5
hourly wage is 15.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
3x + 5 = x + 17
Reorder the terms:
5 + 3x = x + 17
Reorder the terms:
5 + 3x = 17 + x
Solving
5 + 3x = 17 + x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-1x' to each side of the equation.
5 + 3x + -1x = 17 + x + -1x
Combine like terms: 3x + -1x = 2x
5 + 2x = 17 + x + -1x
Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0
5 + 2x = 17 + 0
5 + 2x = 17
Add '-5' to each side of the equation.
5 + -5 + 2x = 17 + -5
Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
0 + 2x = 17 + -5
2x = 17 + -5
Combine like terms: 17 + -5 = 12
2x = 12
Divide each side by '2'.
x = 6
Simplifying
x = 6
Answer:
he will be 17 in
Step-by-step explanation:
#7. C #10. C #11. A #12. C
So to complete the square in
ax^2+bx+c=d form
make sure a=1
subtract c from both sides
take 1/2 of b and square it
add that to both sides
factor perfect square
1x^2-1x-2=0
a=1
move c to other side
add 2 to oth sides
x^2-1x=2
take 1/2 of b and square it
1/2 of -1=-1/2
squaer it
1/4
add that to both sides
x^2-1x+1/4=2+1/4
factor left side
(x-1/2)=2+1/4
first blank is 1/2
2+1/4=8/4+1/4=9/4
blanks are
1/2 and 9/4
