A worker on the production line is paid a base salary of ​$230.00 per week plus ​$0.78 for each unit produced. Write an equation

to represent her earnings of ​$446.84 for a week when she produced x units. How many units did she ​produce? Use pencil and paper. If the worker had produced twice that number of​ units, what would his earnings have​ been? Here is what it should look like, 446.84=230+.78x

(a)

We are given

A worker on the production line is paid a base salary of ​$230.00 per week

so, base salary =230

Let's assume number pencils produced as x

plus ​$0.78 for each unit produced

now, we can find equation for earnings

E(x)=230+0.78x

now, we are given

her earnings of ​$446.84 for a week when she produced x units

so, we can set E(x)=446.84

and then we can solve for x

446.84=230+0.78x

230\cdot \:100+0.78x\cdot \:100=446.84\cdot \:100

23000+78x=44684

23000+78x-23000=44684-23000

78x=21684

\frac{78x}{78}=\frac{21684}{78}

x=278

so, number of pencils = 278........Answer

(b)

If the worker had produced twice that number of​ units

so, number of pencils =2*278=556

now, we can find earnings

E(x)=230+0.78x

now, we can plug x=556

E(556)=230+0.78*556

E(556)=663.68.................Answer

If the cotangent and tangent are reciprocals of each other, then what is the cotangent of an angle if the tangent of the same an
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The cotangent of the angle will be b/a

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the cotangent and tangent are reciprocals of each other and the tangent of the same angle is a/b where a and b are not zero,

then the cotangent will be the reciprocal of the value of the tangent

= 1 / (a/b)

= 1 x (b/a)

= b/a
