Answer:

Julio's hourly rate is $14.4 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

r ------> Julio's normal hourly rate

we know that

The linear equation that represent this scenario is

30r+(41-30)(1.1r)=606.24

30r+(11)(1.1r)=606.24

30r+12.1r=606.24

42.1r=606.24

Solve for r

r=606.24/42.1

r=14.4

therefore

Julio's hourly rate is $14.4 per hour

<em>Verify</em>

606.24=30(14.4)+(41-30)(1.1)(14.4)

606.24=432+174.24

606.24=606.24 ------> is ok

3. What is the scale factor of Figure B to Figure A?

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, figure B was enlarged to obtain figure A.

The two figures are therefore similar.

The corresponding sides are in the same proportion. That constant value of the proportion is called scale factor.

It is given by:

$k = \frac{image \: length}{corresponding\:object \: length}$

Figure B is the image of A

$k = \frac{10}{4} = \frac{25}{10} = \frac{21.5}{8.6} = 2.5$

Therefore the scale factor is 2.5
