Answer:

$18 an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The machinist made an extra ($660-$480 =) $180 working overtime. Since he worked 10 hours of overtime, it comes out to ($180/10 =) $18 an hour.

Enter as a integer or decimal

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4(x + 6) - 2x = 12 ← distribute and simplify left side

4x + 24 - 2x = 12

2x + 24 = 12 ( subtract 24 from both sides )

2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 6

A small town has 2000 inhabitants. At 8 AM, 160 people have heard a rumor. By noon half the town has heard it. At what time will

QveST [7]

Answer:

3:36 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

Let fraction (y) of the people that heard the rumor , the differential equation that is satisfied by the by y is,

$\frac{dy}{dt} = ky(1-y)$

Solving the differential equation,

$y(t) = \frac{y_{o}}{[y_{o} + (1 + y_{o})e^{-kt}]}$

The total number of inhabitants of the town = 2000

The number of people that heard the rumor = 160

At 8 AM, let t = 0,

$y(0) = \frac{160}{2000}$

= 0.08

By noon, half of the town as heard the rumor.

Then,

$y(4) = \frac{1}{2}$

Therefore,

$\frac{1}{2} = \frac{0.08}{[0.08 + (1 - 0.08)e^{-4k}]}$

$\frac{0.08}{[0.08 + 0.92e^{-4k}]} = \frac{1}{2}$

$0.08 + 0.92e^{-4k} = 0.16$

$0.92e^{-4k} = 0.16 - 0.08$

$0.92e^{-4k} = 0.08$

$e^{-4k} = \frac {0.08}{0.92}$

$k = - \frac{1}{4} In(\frac {0.08}{0.92})$

k ≈ 0.06106

Calculating time, t when y(t) = 90%

⇒ y(t) = 0.9

$\frac{0.08}{[0.08 + 0.92e^{-0.06106t}]} =0.9$

$0.08 + 0.92e^{-0.06106t} = \frac {0.9}{0.08}$

$0.08 + 0.92e^{-0.06106t} = 0.089$

$0.92e^{-0.06106t} = 0.089 - 0.08$

$0.92e^{-0.06106t} = 0.0089$

$t = - \frac{1}{0.06106}In (\frac{0.0089}{0.92})$

t = 7.59 hours

⇒ 7 hours 36 minutes

From 8 A.M. plus 7 hours 36 minutes = 3:36 PM

At 3:36 PM will 90% of the population have heard the rumor
