The second one they do not have to pass trough (0,0)
Basically its 250 + 16x = 210 + 18x where x = the number of hours doing the job.
Solving, we get 40 = 2x, x =20
The jobs has to be 20 hours long in order for their two painting jobs to be equally priced.
Hope this helped!
To complete this equation, it is vital to know the slope. To find the slope using points, you subtract the first x from the second, and the first y from the second. This gives you a slope of 4. Then, you must follow point-slope form and choose one of the order pairs to use. You then write y then the negative of your number. Since the number is already negative, you turn it into a positive. On the other side of the "=" sign, you write your slope, 4 distributing to x. Then you write the negative of your x value. Since it is already negative, it turns into a positive. This gives you a final answer of y+1=4(x+2). I realize that this doesn't line up with your fill-in-the-blank answer, so I am sorry if it doesn't work.
25, 65, and y make a right triangle. use a^2 + b^2 =c^2.
so...
y^2 + 25^2 = 65^2
y^2 + 625 = 4225
y^2 = 3600 take the square root of both sides
y=60
$12.75-$11.25= $1.50, $9.75-$1.50= $8.25 his little brother should get $8.25 hope it helps
