ent fee. Company B charges $35 per hour and a $100 equipment fee. Let AA represent the amount Company A would charge for tt hours of landscaping, and let BB represent the amount Company B would charge for tt hours of landscaping. Write an equation for each situation, in terms of t,t, and determine the number hours, t,t, that would make the cost of each company the same.

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A:

Charge for an hour =$ 25

Charge for 't' hours = 25 *t = 25t

Total cost = Equipment fee + charge for t hours

  AA = 150 + 25t

Company B:

Charge for an hour =$ 35

Charge for 't' hours = 35 *t = 35t

Total cost = Equipment fee + charge for t hours

  BB = 100 + 35t

BB = AA

100 + 35t = 150 + 25t

Subtract 25t from both sides

100 + 35t - 25t = 150

           100 +  10t = 150

Subtract 100 from both sides

10t = 150 - 100

10t = 50

Divide both sides by 10

t = 50/10

t = 5

=》

\frac{709}{10}

=》

70.9

average time taken by sarah = 70.9 seconds

now,

average time taken by katie :

=》

\frac{ 79 + 79 + 76 + 81 + 89 + 76 + 64 + 85 + 82 + 78}{10}

=》

\frac{789}{10}

=》

78.9

average time taken by katie = 78.9 seconds

so, sarah is more efficient (faster) than katie.

8090 [49]

I'll guess the answer is <em>you can tell that pi is an irrational because it has a </em>non-terminating yet non-repeating decimal representation.<em> </em>

Of course it's not clear how we tell this.  We can't know for sure just by looking at the first trillion digits we've figured out whether it repeats or not.  Someone told us it didn't, that's really how we know.

Mrs. Owens was making Thanksgiving dinner for 10
saul85 [17]

Well if she is making dinner for 10 people and each person want 2 pieces then you need to multiple 10 x 2 = 20. So she is going to need to make 20 pieces.

If each of her pumpkin pies only has 8 pieces then she is going to have to make 3 pies.

3 pies x 8 pieces = 24 pieces of pumpkin pie. So she has to make 3 pies because she needs 20 pieces since everyone wants 2.

In conclusion Mrs. Owens has to make 3 pies and she is going to have 4 pieces left over.
