Answer: Jack's payment is $53 (per day of work)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that describes how much Jack is paid is:

f(x) = $8 + $10*x

Where x is the number of hours that he works.

If he works from 2:30pm to 7:00 pm, then the number of hours that he worked is equal to the difference between these times, but first let's convert them into only hours:

2:30 = 2 hours and 30 minutes

remember that one hour has 60 minutes.

Then 30 minutes = 0.5 hours

2:30 = 2.5 hours.

7:00 = 7 hours.

Then the number of hours that Jack worked is:

7h - 2.5h = 4.5h

Then just replace x by 4.5 in the equation f(x):

f(4.5) = $10*4.5 + $8 = $53

Jack's payment is $53 (per day of work).

Answer:

-1 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the whole number 4 to an improper fraction

-4 4/5 ÷ 4/1 = -4 4/5 ÷ 4/1

Reciprocal the 4/1 will become 1/4 then go to multiplication

-4 4/5 ÷ 4/1 = -4 4/5 × 1/4

Change to improper fraction the -4 4/5

-4 4/5 ÷ 4/1 = -24/5 × 1/4

Then simply multiply the two numerators and the two denominators

-4 4/5 ÷ 4/1 = -24/20

Finally, Simplify it to get the answer

-4 4/5 ÷ 4/1 = -1 1/5

A sample of 50 11th graders were asked to select a favorite pattern out of 6 choices. The data list below shows what their favor

Helen [10]

Answer:

D 18

Step-by-step explanation:

100% = 50 (all students)

1% = 100%/100 = 50/100 = 1/2 = 0.5

we get any percentage for any number by dividing the number by 1% (0.5) to see how often it fits in.

there are 9 votes for green.

9/ 0.5 = 18%

3a+3b,for a=2 and b=4

il63 [147K]

3a + 3b, for a=2 and b=4 ... The first thing you'd do would be to plug the numbers in -

3 x 2 + 3 x 4

Then multiply them -

6 + 12

Then add -

18.

So your answer should be 18.

What is the median of 76, 84, 93, 67, 82, 87, and 76?

Ahat [919]

The median of a set of numbers is the midpoint of the set if you were to organize the numbers from least to greatest or greatest to least. So, all we have to do is rearrange the numbers from least to greatest and find the midpoint:
67 76 76 82 84 87 93
count 3 in from both sides and the remaining number is 82, which is the median.
