Answer:

The number of employees working in the night shift is 56.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved using linear equation in one variable. In this equation, the unknown value is taken on one side of the equal sign, and the known values are taken on the other side of the equal sign.

The known values form an expression which is computed to find the unknown value.

The equation includes all the given values and variable is substituted for the unknown value, which is to be computed.

Here, the number of employees that work during the day shift is given. The fraction of employees working in night shift is given.

Total number of employees working in the night shift is to be computed. Hence, variable will be substituted for the number of employees working in the night shift.

Given that the number of employees working in the night shift is \frac{2}{5} of the number of employees working in the day shift.

The different values to be taken in the equation are as follows.

number of employees working in the day shift = 140

number of employees working in the night shift = n

The expression to find the unknown value, i.e., number of employees working in the night shift, is given below.

number of employees working in the night shift = \frac{2}{5} of the number of employees working in the day shift

The linear equation will be formed as shown.

n = 140 \times \frac{2}{5}

n = \frac{280}{5}

n = 56

Therefore, the number of employees working in the night shift is found to be 56.

The total number of employees working during both the shifts, when required, can be found out by adding the number of employees working in the day shift and the number of employees working in the night shift.

The total number of employees, overall, is 56 + 140 = 196.

Janelle has a babysitting job for the sunumer. She works from 7 AM to 2 P.M. with a 30-minute, unpaid break in the middle of the
shtirl [24]

Answer: $146.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question, we need to first calculate the number of hours between 7 AM to 2 P.M which is 7 hours but we are told that there is a 30 minutes break. Therefore, he works for 6 hours 30 minutes which is 6 1/2 hours.

She's paid $4.50 pee hour, therefore the amount paid per day will be:

= 6 1/2 × $4.50

= 6.50 × $4.50

= $29.25

The amount that she'll make in 5 days will be:

= $29.25 × 5

= $146.25

I hope someone can help me here please don't answer nonsense!​

Answer:

  282°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of long arc KLM can be found by first determining the measure of short arc KM. That arc can be found using the inscribed angle theorem.

__

<h3>value of x</h3>

The inscribed angle theorem tells you the measure of arc KM is twice the measure of the inscribed angle KLM that subtends it. This relation can be used to find the value of x, hence the measure of the arc.

  2∠KLM = arc KM

  2(5x -1) = 8x +14

  10x -2 = 8x +14 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  2x = 16 . . . . . . . . . . add 2-8x

  x = 8 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

<h3>measure of arc KM</h3>

The expression for the measure of arc KM can be evaluated.

  arc KM = 8x +14 = 8(8) +14 = 78°

<h3>measure of arc KLM</h3>

The total of arcs of a circle is 360°, so the measure of long arc KLM will bring the total with arc KM to 360°:

  arc KM +arc KLM = 360°

  arc KLM = 360° -arc KM

  arc KLM = 360° -78° = 282°

The measure are long arc KLM is 282°.

Help me solve those show work 3(2a-5)=12-7a, 27=3c-3(6-2c)and 6c-8-2c=-16
posledela
3(2a-5) = 12-7a
6a-15=12-7a
6a+7a=12+15
13a= 27

27=3c-3(6-2c)
27=3c-18+6c
27+18=3c+6c
45=9c
C=45/9
C=5

6c-8-2c=-16
