A worker makes $ 600,000 a month, how much do you earn in a year?

Minchanka [31]

If a worker makes 600,000 a month, we can multiply that to 12, since there are 12 months in a year. 600,000 x 12 = 72,000,00, so the worker makes $72,000,00 a year. :)

Point G is on line segment FH. Given FH = 4x, GH = x, and FG = 2x + 10,

kondaur [170]

Answer:

30 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If point G is on line segment FH, then point G lies between points F and H.

Segment Addition Postulate states that given 2 points F and H, a third point G lies on the line segment FH if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation FG + GH = FH.

By segment addition postulate,

$FG+GH=FH$

Given

FH = 4x,

GH = x,

FG = 2x + 10,

then

$4x=x+2x+10\\ \\4x=3x+10\\ \\4x-3x=10\\ \\x=10\\ \\FG=2x+10=2\cdot 10+10=30\ units$

Suppose a and b vary inversely, and b = 8 when a = 6. Write a function that models the variation and find b when a = 30. Explain

ICE Princess25 [194]

1. If a and b vary inversely and b = 8 when a = 6:
b = k/ a
8 = k / 6
k = 6 * 8
k = 48
Function is:
b = 48 / a
2. When a = 30:
b = 48 / 30 = 8/5
b = 1.6

What does c equal in thus equation I don't know for the life of me help is deeply appreciated 4(3+c)+c=c+4

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(3+c)+c=c+4

(4)(3)+(4)(c)+c=c+4(Distribute)

12+4c+c=c+4

(4c+c)+(12)=c+4(Combine Like Terms)

5c+12=c+4

5c+12=c+4

Step 2: Subtract c from both sides.

5c+12−c=c+4−c

4c+12=4

Step 3: Subtract 12 from both sides.

4c+12−12=4−12

4c=−8

Step 4: Divide both sides by 4.

4c

4

=

−8

4

c=−2
