2x-4(x+1)=-13
1) we solve this equation:
2x-4(x+1)=-12
2x-4x-4=-12
-2x=-12+4
-2x=-8
x=-8/-2
x=4

2) we evalute x²-1
x²-1=4²-1=16-1=15

Answer: 15

Julio is paid 1.4 times his normal hourly rate for each hour he works over 32 hours in a week. Last week he worked 43 hours and
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

r = \$14.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Normal Hour = 32 hours

Overtime = Hours above 32

Rate for Overtime = 1.4 times normal rate

Earnings = $535.62

Required

Determine the normal hour pay

First, we need to determine the hours worked overtime.

This is:

Overtime = 43 - 32

Overtime = 11

The equation that binds all the parameters is:

Earnings = Normal\ Hour * Normal\ Rate + Overtime * Overtime\ Rate

This gives:

535.62 = 21 * r + 11 * 1.4r

535.62 = 21r + 15.4r

535.62 = 36.4r

Solve for r

r = 535.62/36.4

r = \$14.71

BRAINLIEST AND 60 POINTS!!!!!!!
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

1.  P ( tails) = 1/2

2.P (number greater than 4)   = 1/3

3.  P (2 die sum to 8) = 5/36

Step-by-step explanation:

A coin only has 2 possibilities, head or tails, and they are equally likely

So the probability of getting a tails is 1/2

P ( tails) = 1/2


A die has the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6 .  There are 2 numbers greater than 4.  They are 5 and 6.  So there are 2 of the 6 choices that work.

P (number greater than 4)  = 2/6  = 1/3


See the dice chart

There are 36 possibilities when you roll the die.

There are 5 that sum to 8

P (2 die sum to 8) = 5/36
