Answer: For the sum of 130
First: $90
Second: $40
Step-by-step explanation:
We write equations for each part of this situation.
<u>The Total Charge</u>
Together they charged 1550. This means 1550 is made up of the first mechanics rate for 15 hours and the second's rate for 5 hours. Lets call the first's rate a, so he charges 15a. The second's let's call b. He charges 5b. We add them together 15a+5b=1550.
<u>The Sum of the Rates</u>
Since the first's rate is a and the second is b, we can write a+b=130 since their sum is 130.
We solve for a and b by substituting one equation into another. Solve for the variable. Then substitute the value into the equation to find the other variable.
For a+b=130, rearrange to b=130-a and substitute into 15a+5b=1550.
15a + 5 (130-a)=1550
15a+650-5a=1550
10a+650-650=1550-650
10a=900
a=$90 was charged by the first mechanic.
We substitute to find the second mechanic's rate.
90+b=130
90-90+b=130-90
b= $40 was charged by the second mechanic
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The two equations are similar, because if you multiply the first one by 3 it will be equal to the second one, so when that happens we say that there are infinite solutions.
Answer:
0
1
Step-by-step explanation:
First question:
You are given a side, a, and its opposite angle, A. You are also given side b. Use that in the law of sines and solve for the other angle, B.
The sine function can never equal 2, so there is no triangle in this case.
Answer: no triangle
Second question:
You are given a side, b, and its opposite angle, B. You are also given side c. Use that in the law of sines and solve for the other angle, C.
One triangle exists for sure. Now we see if there is a second one.
Now we look at the supplement of angle C.
m<C = 52.5°
supplement of angle C: m<C' = 180° - 52.5° = 127.5°
We add the measures of angles B and the supplement of angle C:
m<B + m<C' = 63° + 127.5° = 190.5°
Since the sum of the measures of these two angles is already more than 180°, the supplement of angle C cannot be an angle of the triangle.
Answer: one triangle
The correct answer is C.
You can tell this by factoring the equation to get the zeros. To start, pull out the greatest common factor.
f(x) = x^4 + x^3 - 2x^2
Since each term has at least x^2, we can factor it out.
f(x) = x^2(x^2 + x - 2)
Now we can factor the inside by looking for factors of the constant, which is 2, that add up to the coefficient of x. 2 and -1 both add up to 1 and multiply to -2. So, we place these two numbers in parenthesis with an x.
f(x) = x^2(x + 2)(x - 1)
Now we can also separate the x^2 into 2 x's.
f(x) = (x)(x)(x + 2)(x - 1)
To find the zeros, we need to set them all equal to 0
x = 0
x = 0
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
Since there are two 0's, we know the graph just touches there. Since there are 1 of the other two numbers, we know that it crosses there.
