Answer:

40d + 10(1.5d) = 770 can be used to determine Martin's hourly pay.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Hourly rate = d

Earning to first 40 hours = 40d

Earning of more than 40 hours = 1.5d

Amount paid per week = $770

Hours worked = 50 hours

first 40 hours + 10 hours = total earned

40d + 10(1.5d) = 770

Hence,

40d + 10(1.5d) = 770 can be used to determine Martin's hourly pay.

A trapezoid has an area of 13.5 square inches. If the bases are 3 and 6 inches what is the height?
liraira [26]
Well the formula is : b1+b2/2 (h)

so the height would be solved as : 
13.5 = 3+6/2 (h)
13.5 = 9/2 (h)
h = (13.5)/(9/2)
h = (13.5) x (2/9)  *reciprocal*
h = (27) / (9)
h = 3

Find the midpoint of the segment with the following endpoints. (10, 7) and (5, 4)
KatRina [158]

Answer:

\frac{15}{2} , \frac{11}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:-

To find the midpoint, the equation we use is:-

\frac{x1 +x2}{2} , \frac{y1 + y2}{2}

x1 = 10

x2 = 5

y1 = 7

y2 = 4

Substituting the values in the equation, we get:-

\frac{10+5}{2} , \frac{7+4}{2}

Coordinates of the midpoint---> \frac{15}{2} , \frac{11}{2}

Describe the relationship between n and 4 that will make the value of the expression 7×n/4 great her than 7
nadezda [96]
If you want an answer greater that 7, your fraction needs to be greater than 1.
n can be any number greater than 4

7 \times  \frac{4}{4}  = 7
7 \times  \frac{8}{4}  = 14

How many solutions are there to the equation shown below? Explain your answer.*
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

  an infinite number

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation simplifies to ...

  12x -7 = 6x +10 +6x -17 . . . eliminate parentheses

  12x -7 = 12x -7  . . . . . . . .  collect terms

  0 = 0 . . . . subtract (12x-7) from both sides

This is true for all values of x. There are an infinite number of solutions.

Solve (x + 1 < 4) ∩ (x - 8 > -7).
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
When solved 
(x + 1 < 4) ∩ (x - 8 > -7) 
becomes:
(x+1-1 < 4-1) ∩ (x - 8 +8 >  -7+8 ) 
(x < 3) ∩ (x > 1).
and if you change places it will become even more obvious:
 ( 1<x ) ∩ ( x < 3 )
meaning:  x is set of all numbers greater than 1 and less than 3 or otherwise: 
{x | 1 < x < 3}
