Answer:hourly pay for the junior employee in dollars and cents=$10.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Total amount senior employee is being paid = amount per hour x hours worked
= $14 × 16 = $224.00
Total amount of junior employee since he/ she collects $39.50 less than senior employee= $224.00 - $39.50
= $184.50
Step 2
hourly pay of junior colleague= Total pay of junior colleague/ Hours worked
=$184.50 / 18 hours
= $10.25 per hour
-2|-2r-4|=-12
divide by -2
|-2r-4| = 6
we get a positive and negative solution
-2r-4 = 6 and -2r - 4 = -6
-add 4 to each side
-2r = 10 -2r = -2
divide by -2
r = -5 and r = 1
Answer r = -5 ,1
remember, x is on the left side for x- intercept while Y is on the right but you put it on the left for the Y intercept.
example
x intercept is (-5, 0, 5)
Plug in each possible value into the equation.
when m = 5
2k = m + 3
2k = (5) + 3
Simplify
2k = 8
isolate the k, divide 2 from both sides
2k/2 = 8/2
k = 8/2
k = 4
When m = 5, k = 4
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2k = m + 3
when m = 7
2k = (7) + 3
2k = 10
2k/2 = 10/2
k = 10/2
k = 5
when m = 7, k = 5
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2k = m + 3
When m = 9
2k = (9) + 3
2k = 12
2k/2 = 12/2
k = 12/2
k = 6
when m = 9, k = 6
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
