Job one pays more. the rate is 18.75
Remember, we can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
and distributive proeprty, reversed
ab+ac=a(b+c)
xm=x+z
minus x from both sides
xm-x=z
xm-1x
undistribute x
x(m-1)=z
divide both sides by (m-1)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
the first fish tank has 100 gallons of water and 1 gallon is removed every hour which makes 100-h
the second tank has 40 gallons in it and 2 gallons are added every hour which makes 40+2h
after 20 hours the second tank will have more gallons than the first tank
this means that 40+2h would be greater than 100-h since it's also asking you "After how many hours will the first tank have less water than the second?"
Your answer would be B.
The triangles would be congruent, because the lines GH and FI are congruent and the angle H and I are the same, and since the line HI is shared by the two, it would then be SAS.
1/3 x - 1/2 = 18 1/2
1/3 x = 19 (add 1/2 on the right side to 18 1/2)
x = 57 (multiply the reciprocal of 1/3 and that will be 3/1 or 3 to 19 to get x by itself)
So, the answer is x = 57 (d. 57)
