Jon earns 6 dollars per hour.
We know this because, if he gets paid $20 and buys $2 worth of gasoline, his profit is $18.
Then, we divide 18 by the number of hours he worked, 3, and thus, Jon earns $6/hr.
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:.25 is lower than .5
We let the number of years that the two jobs will have the same payment be denoted as t. Equating the wages of these two jobs after t - 1 years will give us an equation of,
22,000 + 4000(t -1) = 26,000 + 2000(t - 1)
The value of t from the generated equation is 3. Therefore, after 3 years the jobs will be paying the same wages.
Answer:
-2b/(a-b)
Step-by-step explanation:
1− (a+b/a−b)
We need to get a common denominator of a-b
1 = (a-b)/(a-b)
Replace 1 with (a-b)/(a-b)
(a-b)/(a-b) - (a+b)/(a-b)
Put over the common denominator
(a-b) - (a+b)
-----------------
(a-b)
Distribute the minus sign.
(a-b) - a-b)
-----------------
(a-b)
a-a-b-b
---------------
a-b
-2b
----------
a-b
She reads at 55 pages per hour for 4 hours so 55*4 = 220 pages so far. This means that she read 220 and had 330 left so 220 + 330 = 550 so the book is 550 pages. If she reads 55 pages per hour and there is a total of 550 pages, 550/55 = 10 hours to read the book.
