W=normal hourly wage

4W-12.75+5*1.5W-8.50=70.75

4W-12.75+7.5W-8.50=70.75

11.5W-21.25=70.75

11.5W=92

W=8

Normal hourly rate is $8/hour

Check

32-12.75+60-8.50=70.75

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The answer would be 24 balloons in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jorge bought 6 large balloons, which was 25% of ALL the balloons he bought.

Meaning that since 6 is 25% of the number 24, he bought 24 balloons in total.

PROOF:

25% * 24 = 6

24 / 6 = 4

6 * 4 = 24

A company sells boxes of duck calls (d) for $35 and boxes of turkey calls (t) for $45. they make batches of duck calls that fill
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Option A is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the number of boxes of duck calls and t be the number of boxes of turkey calls.

We have been given that a company sells boxes of duck calls for $35 and boxes of turkey calls (t) for $45, so the revenue earned from selling d boxes of duck and t boxes of turkey call will be 35d and 45t respectively.

Further, the company plan to make $300. We can represent this information as:

35d+45t=300...(1)

We are also told that they make batches of duck calls that fill 6 boxes and batches of turkey calls that fill 8 boxes. the company only has 42 boxes. We can represent this information as:

6d+8t=42...(2)

6d=42-8t...(2)

Therefore, our desired system of equation will be:

35d+45t=300...(1)

6d=42-8t...(2)

Point A(3,2) is on a circle whose center is C(−2,3). What is the radius of the circle?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The radius of the circle is √26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since point A is on the circle, the distance between that point and the center of the circle is equal to the radius.

To find the distance between two points, the following equation should be used:

x^{2} =(x_{A}- x_{C}) ^{2} + (y_{A}- y_{C}) ^{2}

Replacing the numeric values:

r^{2} =(3- (-2)) ^{2} + (2-3) ^{2}\\r^{2} =(5) ^{2} + (-1) ^{2}\\r=\sqrt{26}

The radius of the circle is √26.
