Answer:
Where it says "add attachment" with the paper clip, select your picture from there. If you don't know how to do that, take a picture of it with your phone, email it to yourself, and download it on your computer. It should then be in a folder called "downloads" or something similar. Feel free to ask further questions if you're still stuck!
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply the equation by using cross-multiplication, you get 30=5q
Then you swap sides of the equation, you get 5q=30
Then you divide both sides of the equation by 5
Your answer is q=6
1. find the LCD of 3 and 4 (12). so now your fractions are 5 4/12 and 3 9/12 perimeter is 2l + 2w so 2 (5 4/12) + 2( 3 9/12) = 10 4/12 + 7 6/12 = 17 10/12 or 17 5/6. this is reasonable because that the average perimeter of a sandbox.
2. LCD again is 12, so the fractions are 5 10/12 and 2 1/12. turn those into mixed fractions and get 70/12 and 25/12. 45/12 or 3 3/4. So she babysits 3 3/4 hours during the week.
3. The LCD for this is 8. now the fractions are 2/8 and 1 7/8 or 15/8. add 15/8 and 2/8 to get 17/8 or 2 1/8. He is using a total of 2 1/8 cups of flour.
4. 0.2
5. 0.054
6. 0.024
Any options? Maybe a picture?
Keep in mind that we're framing it based on what the first sentence says, which is "If the cost of a competing factor of production, such as a machine that also could do the job, rises".
So if the cost of getting a machine part, various parts, or the entire machine cost rises, then demand for the machine will go down. This will make employers seek out substitutes. In this case, those substitutes would be human labor. As employers demand for labor goes up, the wages will rise assuming the supply of workers is held constant. If the supply of workers increased, then you could argue the wages could go down. So that's why I'm assuming the supply is held in check.
