80.75 / 8.50 = 9.5
Sean worked 9 and a half hours.

In order to solve this, you must divide his total (80.75) by his hourly wage (8.50) When you do that, you get 9.5, so he worked 9.5 hours. I hope this helps! :)

P is inversely proportional to the cube of (q-2) p=6 when q=3 find the value of p when q is 5

sveticcg [70]

$\bf \begin{array}{llllll}
\textit{something}&&\textit{varies inversely to}&\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\
\textit{something}&=&\cfrac{{{\textit{some value}}}}{}&\cfrac{}{\textit{something else}}\\ \quad \\
y&=&\cfrac{{{\textit{k}}}}{}&\cfrac{}{x}
\\
&&y=\cfrac{{{ k}}}{x}
\end{array}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\textit{p is inversely proportional to the cube of (q-2)}\implies p=\cfrac{k}{(q-2)^3}
\\\\\\
now \quad 
\begin{cases}
p=6\\
q=3
\end{cases}\implies 6=\cfrac{k}{(3-2)^3}$

solve for "k", to find k or the "constant of variation"

then plug k's value back to $\bf p=\cfrac{k}{(q-2)^3}$

now.... what is "p" when q = 5? well, just set "q" to 5 on the right-hand-side, and simplify, to see what "p" is

Rewrite the fractions 3/4 and 5/16 as fractions with a least common denominator.

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

12/16 and 5/16

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two fractions with denominator 4 and 16.

To find the least common denominator, of 4 and 16.

Factorise 4 and 16.

4 = 2x2

16 = 2x2x2x2

i.e. 4 divides 16.

Hence Least common denominator = bigger number = 16

Make the given fractions to equivalent fractions with common denominator 16.

3/4 = 4(3)/4(4) = 12/16 and

5/16 = 1(5)/16(1)= 5/16

Hence answer would be

12/16 and 5/16

What is the base if the height is 6ft and the area is 14 ft on a triangle

insens350 [35]

Answer:

b = 4.66666667

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for finding the area of a triangle is

0.5b x h = a

b = base

h = height

a = area

So I calculated 14 divided by 6

And got 2.3333333

And since that number is half of the base, I multiplied it by 2

2.333 x 2 ≈ 4.66666667
