Answer:

Hamish and Harry work as plumbers. Harry earns a dollar an hour more than 5/4 the amount hamish earns per hour. harry earns per hour is 2$ less than 7/5 the amount hamish earns per hour. how much do each of them make an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x is the  amount Harry earns 

y is the amount Hamish earns 

x=(5/4)y+1 ⇒ (x-1)*4/5 = y-------- equation 1

x=(7/5)y-2⇒ (x+2)*5/7 = y-------- equation 2

equals 1 and 2

(x-1)*4/5 = (x+2)*5/7

(4x-4)/5 = (5x+10)/7

(4x-4)*7 = (5x+10)*5

28x-28 = 25x+50

28x-25x = 50+28

3x = 78

x = 26

substitute x = 26 for y=(x-1)*4/5

y = (x-1)*4/5

y =  (26-1)*4/5

y = 20

the answer is

<h3>Harry earns $26 an hour</h3><h3>Hamish earns  $20 an hour</h3>

\frac{1}{3} (n + 15) = -2

First, replace the numerator with the parentheses.
\frac{n+15}{3} =-2
Second, multiply both sides by 3.
n + 15 = -2 * 3
Third, multiply 2 × 3 to get 6.
n + 15 = -6
Fourth, take away 15 from each side.
n = -6 - 15
Fifth, simplify -6 - 15 to get -21.
n = -21

Answer: n = -21

10. Select all that are true for the graph that represents
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

A, C and F

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=5(3)^x

It is an exponential function of the form

f(x)=a(b)^x

On comparing both the functions, we get

a=5,b=3

It means the initial value is 5 and growth factor is 3.

Since both values are positive it means the given functions is an exponential growth function, therefore,

1. The graph is increasing by a common ratio of 3.

2. As x increases, y increases.

3. As x decreases, y approaches 0.

Hence, the correct options are A, C and F.

The extreme water slide forms a 20 angle with the tower it leans against 80 feet above the ground find the length of the slide x
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

85.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The extreme water slide forms a 20 angle with the tower it leans against 80 feet above the ground find the length of the slide x

We solve using the Trigonometric function of Cosine

cos y = adjacent/hypotenuse

y = angle = 20°

Adjacent = 80 ft

Hypotenuse = ?

cos 20 = 80/Hypotenuse

Hypotenuse = 80/cos 20

x = 85.134221798 ft

Approximately = 85.1 ft

Length of the slide = 85.1 ft
