Answer:

Week=25 Hours

Weekend= 5 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to use the info they gave us and create two equations. Firstly we know how much he gets paid per hour during the week (x) and how much he gets paid on the weekend (y).

$20x+$30y=$650

We get this because we know the combined rates he is paid times the hours should add up to the amount he earned.

The next equation will be made off of the information that he worked 5 times as many hours during the week as on the weekend. This tells us that we will take the weekend hours (y) and multiply them by 5 in order to get the week hours (x).

x=5y      Now, since we have one variable by itself, we can plug it in for x in the first equation.

20(5y)+30y=650    Our first step here is to distribute the 20 to the 5y in order to eliminate the parenthesis.

100y+30y=650    Next add the like terms together (100y+30y).

Now all we have to do to find y is divide by 130 on both sides to get y alone.

130y=650  

________

130     130

y=5             Now to solve for x we just plug our y value into one of the equations above. I'm going to use the second equation.

x=5(5)

x=25

So, the area of a circle is a=pi r^2
so do that and get a=pi(4)
and since the circle touches the edge of the rectangle, the rectangle is 4 cm tall, so 4*8 is 32 and pi(4) is about 12.56, so 32-12.56 is 19.44, and I believe that is the answer. (19.4)

Answer:

3^2 + x^2 = 9^2

9 + x^2 = 81

x^2 = 72

x = \sqrt{72\\}, which is about 8.5

Cosine X = 3/9

Cosine X = 1/3

angle x= 70.5

If angle x= 70.5, angle z = 19.5 degrees.

Let me know if this helps!

Camille invested money into an account that earned annual simple interest with a rate of 6.5%. She made no additional deposits o
vichka [17]

Answer:

$30341.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it says simple interest, use the formula I = Prt.

(I is interest, r is the % rate as a decimal, t is the time)

So, you have to solve the equation,

1755 = P (0.065)(9)

Since 0.065 x 9 = 0.585, the equation can be simplified to

1755 = 0.585P

Then, to get P, you divide both sides by 0.585

P = 1755/0.585 = $30341.88
