Amelia has a job baby-sitting for a neighbor. She is paid $20 plus $2.50 for each hour on the job. If Amelia wants to earn $40 t

o buy a new sweater, how many hours would she need to work?

Alright, so $20 is accounted for, and is half of $40. With only another $20 remaining, you can simply divide it by $2.50.

20 ÷ 2.50 = 8

20 + 2.50h = 40

h = 8

Amelia will have to work 8 hours to earn enough money to buy a new sweater.

Should my answer be 85=360+12h

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

h = $\frac{- 275}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

85 = 360 + 12h

85 - 360 = 360 - 360 + 12h

- 275 = 12h

- 275 ÷ 12 = 12h ÷ 12

h = - 275/12

Wich is equivalent to 12(3 2/3)!?

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

1/5 = 2/10 = 3/15 = 4/20

= 5/25 = 6/30 = 7/35 = 8/40

= 9/45 = 10/50 = 11/55 = 12/60

= 13/65 = 14/70 = 15/75 = 16/80

= 17/85 = 18/90 = 19/95 = 20/100

= 21/105 = 22/110 = 23/115 = 24/120

= 25/125 = 26/130 = 27/135 = 28/140

= 29/145 = 30/150 = 31/155 = 32/160

= 33/165 = 34/170 = 35/175 = 36/180

= 37/185 = 38/190 = 39/195 = 40/200

= 41/205 = 42/210 = 43/215 = 44/220

= 45/225 = 46/230 = 47/235 = 48/240

= 49/245 = 50/250 = 51/255 = 52/260

= 53/265 = 54/270 = 55/275 = 56/280

= 57/285 = 58/290 = 59/295 = 60/300

= 61/305 = 62/310 = 63/315 = 64/320

= 65/325 = 66/330 = 67/335 = 68/340

= 69/345 = 70/350 = 71/355 = 72/360

= 73/365 = 74/370 = 75/375 = 76/380

= 77/385 = 78/390 = 79/395 = 80/400

= 81/405 = 82/410 = 83/415 = 84/420

= 85/425 = 86/430 = 87/435 = 88/440

= 89/445 = 90/450 = 91/455 = 92/460

= 93/465 = 94/470 = 95/475 = 96/480

= 97/485 = 98/490 = 99/495 = 100/500

Step-by-step explanation:

all of these are equivalent

Prove that the segments joining the midpoint of consecutive sides of an isosceles trapezoid form a rhombus.

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To prove that DEFG is a rhombus, it is sufficient to prove that:

All the sides of the rhombus are congruent: $|DG|\cong |GF| \cong |EF| \cong |DE|$
The diagonals are perpendicular

Using the distance formula; $d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$|DG|=\sqrt{(0-(-a-b))^2+(0-c)^2}$

$\implies |DG|=\sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2+2ab}$

$|GF|=\sqrt{((a+b)-0)^2+(c-0)^2}$

$\implies |GF|=\sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2+2ab}$

$|EF|=\sqrt{((a+b)-0)^2+(c-2c)^2}$

$\implies |EF|=\sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2+2ab}$

$|DE|=\sqrt{(0-(-a-b))^2+(2c-c)^2}$

$\implies |DE|=\sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2+2ab}$

Using the slope formula; $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

The slope of EG is $m_{EG}=\frac{2c-0}{0-0}$

$\implies m_{EG}=\frac{2c}{0}$

The slope of EG is undefined hence it is a vertical line.

The slope of DF is $m_{DF}=\frac{c-c}{a+b-(-a-b)}$

$\implies m_{DF}=\frac{0}{2a+2b)}=0$

The slope of DF is zero, hence it is a horizontal line.

A horizontal line meets a vertical line at 90 degrees.

Conclusion:

Since $|DG|\cong |GF| \cong |EF| \cong |DE|$ and $DF \perp FG$ , DEFG is a rhombus

b) Using the slope formula:

The slope of DE is $m_{DE}=\frac{2c-c}{0-(-a-b)}$

$m_{DE}=\frac{c}{a+b)}$

The slope of FG is $m_{FG}=\frac{c-0}{a+b-0}$

$\implies m_{FG}=\frac{c}{a+b}$
