Answer:

A, B , C do NOT use appropriate compatible numbers to estimate the total number of hours he worked.

Step-by-step explanation:

Malik earned $2,344.55

Wages per hour $ 35.50

No of hours = Total wages / wages per hour= $2,344.55/ 35.50 =  66.043

<em>Lets analyze all the options</em>

A. 2,400 ÷ 30= 80

B. 2,400 ÷ 40= 60

C. 2,000 ÷ 40= 50

D. 2,000 ÷ 30= 66.67

A, B , C do NOT use appropriate compatible numbers to estimate the total number of hours he worked.

<u><em>Only D uses appropriate compatible numbers to estimate the total number of hours he worked.</em></u>

PLEASE HELP! What is the volume of the pyramid shown below?
mezya [45]
The formula for the volume of a pyramid is,

V=1/3Bh


Since the base of the pyramid is a square, the base area is 11^2

which equals 121 sq. units

So, substitute 121

for B

and 6 for h, in the formula.

V=1/3(121)(6) = 242 cu. units

Or alternatively 1/3(11^2)(6) = 242 cu. units

A movie theater charges $5 per ticket and averages 300 customers each night. If prices are raised to $7 per ticket, the theater
Shtirlitz [24]

Attendance with the higher ticket price is ...

... $1750/$7 = 250

So the percentage change in attendance is ...

... change = (new - original)/original × 100%

... = (250 -300)/300 × 100% = -1/6×100% ≈ -17%

Solving Quadratic Equations with Complex SolutionsThe discriminant: D=b^2-4acQuestion:5x^2-2x+1=0
fomenos

• The value of the discriminant ,D= -16

,

• The solution to the quadratic equation is

x=\frac{1+2i}{5}\text{     or    }\frac{1-2i}{5}

Step - by - Step Explanation

What to find?

• The discriminant d= b² - 4ac

,

• The solution to the quadratic equation.

Given:

5x² - 2x + 1=0

Comparing the given equation with the general form of the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c=0

a=5 b=-2 and c=1

Uisng the quadratic formula to solve;

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

The discriminant D=b² - 4ac

Substitute the values into the discriminant formula and simplify.

D = (-2)² - 4(5)(1)

D = 4 - 20

D = -16

We can now proceed to find the solution of the quadratic equation by substituting into the quadratic formula;

x=\frac{-(-2)\pm\sqrt[]{-16}}{2(5)}

Note that:

√-1 = i

x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt[]{16\times-1}}{10}

x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt[]{16}\times\sqrt[]{-1}}{10}x=\frac{2\pm4i}{10}x=\frac{2}{10}\pm\frac{4i}{10}x=\frac{1}{5}\pm\frac{2}{5}ix=\frac{1\pm2i}{5}

That is;

\text{Either x=}\frac{1+2i}{5}\text{ or     x=}\frac{1-2i}{5}

Two passenger train, A and B, 450 km apart, star to move toward each other at the same time and meet after 2hours.
likoan [24]

Let v be the speed of train A, and let's set the origin in the initial position of train A. The equations of motion are

\begin{cases}s_A(t) = vt\\s_B(t) = -\dfrac{8}{7}vt+450\end{cases}

where s_A,\ s_B are the positions of trains A and B respectively, and t is the time in hours.

The two trains meet if and only if s_A=s_B, and we know that this happens after two hours, i.e. at t=2

\begin{cases}s_A(2) = 2v\\s_B(2) = -\dfrac{16}{7}v+450\end{cases}\implies 2v = -\dfrac{16}{7}v+450

Solving this equation for v we have

2v = -\dfrac{16}{7}v+450 \iff \dfrac{30}{7}v=450 \iff v=\dfrac{450\cdot 7}{30} = 105

So, train A is travelling at 105 km/h. This implies that train B travels at

105\cdot \dfrac{8}{7} = 15\cdot 8=120 \text{ km/h}
