I think the median is 8 or 11
Answer:
(6,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
y=2/3 x - 1
y=-1/2 x + 6
Since both equations are equal to y, we can set them equal
2/3 x - 1 =-1/2 x + 6
We have fractions, so I will multiply by 6 to clear the fractions
6(2/3 x - 1) =(-1/2 x + 6)6
Distribute
4x -6 = -3x +36
Add 3x to each side
4x+3x -6 = -3x+3x +36
7x -6 = 36
Add 6 to each side
7x-6+6 = 36+6
7x = 42
Divide each side by 7
7x/7 = 42/7
x =6
Now we need to find y
y =2/3x -1
y = 2/3(6) -1
y = 4-1
y=3
(6,3)
Let
x----------> the first mechanic rates
y----------> the second mechanic rates
we know that
x+y=165
15x+5y=1775
using a graph tool
see the attached figure
the solution is
x=95
y=70
the answer is
the rates of the first mechanic is 95the rates of the second mechanic is 70
The correct answer to this question is this one: "D. 11.474"
your calculator probably doesn't do "secant". But sec is 1/cos
so do cos(85) (in degree mode, not radian mode)
then "invert it": 1 / ANS or x^-1 if you have that key
or type
1/cos(85 degrees)= <span>11.4737</span>
