let number of hours be x

Celeste charges an initial fee of $5.00, and an hourly rate of $7.25.

C =5+7.25x...................(1)

Dora has an initial fee of $10.25, and an hourly rate of $6.50.

D=10.25+6.50x.................(2)

if the cost is same, equating equations (1) and (2)

5+7.25x=10.25+6.50x

7.25x-6.50x=10.25-5

0.75x = 5.25

x=7

so 7 hours is the answer

We can see that as the number of hours increase the charge also increase

Let x be the number of hours

The function denoting the scenario for Celeste

f(x)=5+7.25x

The function denoting the scenario for Dora

g(x) = 10.25+6.5x

Now we need to know the time or number of hours x, when both the functions will give us the same value , that is f(x)=g(x)

5+7.25x=10.25+6.5x

7.25x-6.5x=10.25-5.00

0.75x=5.25

x=\frac{5.25}{0.75}

x=7

Hence at 7 hours of instruction both the instructors will get the same cost

Three people invest in a treasure dive, each investing the amount listed below. The dive results in 40 gold coins. Apportion tho
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Alice: 20 coins, Ben: 16 coins, and Carlos: 4 coins.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the dive results in 40 gold coins.

We know that:

Alice: $7,600 Ben: $5,900 Carlos: $1,400.

So they have $ 14900 in total.

Now we will divide that money by 40.

x=\frac{14900}{40}\\\\x=372.5

So 1 gold coin costs $ 372.5. Now we will calculate how much they can get for the money they have.

A=\frac{7600}{372.5}=20.4\\\\B=\frac{5900}{372.5}=15.8\\\\C=\frac{1400}{372.5}=3.75\\

We conclude that:

Alice: 20 coins, Ben: 16 coins, and Carlos: 4 coins.
