16. Peter works part time for 3 hours every day and Cindy works part time for 2 hours every day.
Ber [7]

Answer:

Part A)

  • 4.50 × 3 > 4.50 × 2
  • 13.5 0 > 9

Part B)

  • r ≥ 7

Explanation:

1) The earnings are calculated multiplying the number of hours by the hourly rate.

2) The hourly rate of both Peter and Cindy is the same: $ 4.50 / hour

3) Let the variable used for computing the number of hours be h.

4) The number of hours Peter works every day is 3 hours, so, using the letter P to name Peter's earnings, the expression to calculate his earnings is:

  • P = 4.50 × 3

5) Similarly, the expression to calculate Cindy's earnings would be:

  • C = 4.50 × 2

<u>Answering part A)</u>

<u>Y</u>ou have to write an inequality to compare Peter's and Cindy's earnings:

  • 4.50 × 3 > 4.50 × 2
  • 13.5 0 > 9

This is, the earnings of Peter are greater than the earnings of Cindy.

<u>Part B)</u>,

You have to write an inequality to calculate Cindy's per-hour income so that she earns at least $ 14 a day.

  • Here, C ≥ 14, because the sign ≥ means greater than or equal to, meaning the the earnings are greater than or equal to 14.

  • Thus, since she works 2 hours per day, the inequality becomes 2 × r ≥ $ 14, where r is the per-hour income.

  • To solve it follow these steps:

Given: 2r ≥ 14

Divide both sides by 2: r ≥ 14 / 2

Simplify: r ≥ 7

That means that Cindy's per-hour income should be at least $7 and hour so that she earns $14 a day.

Find the value of m for which mx^2 - 6x + 5 = 0 has one solution.
insens350 [35]

Answer:

m = \frac{9}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic equation in standard form ax² + bx + c = 0 ( a ≠ 0)

Then the discriminant Δ = b² - 4ac gives information on the nature of the solutions.

For the equation to have 1 solution we require b² - 4ac = 0

mx² - 6x + 5 = 0 ← is in standard form

with a = m, b = - 6, c = 5, then

b² - 4ac = 0

(- 6)² - (4 × m × 5) = 0

36 - 20m = 0 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

- 20m = - 36 ( divide both sides by - 20 )

m = \frac{-36}{-20} = \frac{9}{5}

Solve for x <br><br> (5√3)^x+(10√3)^(x-10)=84
Olenka [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can define z = 3^(x/10). Then the equation is quadratic, which we can solve by completing the square. X can be found from the positive solution for z.

  z^2+\dfrac{1}{3}z=84\\\\z^2+\dfrac{1}{3}z+\dfrac{1}{36}=84\dfrac{1}{36}\\\\(z+\dfrac{1}{6})^2=(9\dfrac{1}{6})^2\\\\z=9\dfrac{1}{6}-\dfrac{1}{6}=9\\\\z=3^{\frac{x}{10}}=3^2\\\\x=10\cdot2\\\\\boxed{x=20}
