Answer:

Electrician = 44

Plumber = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Electrician Hourly wage = x

Plumber's hourly wage = y

Average = 33

(x + y ) /2 = 33

x + y = 66 - - - - (1)

7x + 4y = 396 - - - (2)

From (1)

x = 66 - y

Put x = 66 - y in (2)

7(66-y) + 4y = 396

462 - 7y + 4y = 396

-3y = - 66

y = 22

x = 66 - 22

x = 44

Electrician = 44

Plumber = 22

F(x) = 3x + 2<br> What is f(5)?<br><br> PLEASE HELP!!!!
abruzzese [7]
Resolving a function of any nature means determining your zeros or raizes.

The zeros of a function occur when the function is null.

Then:

f(x) = 3x - 2

To determine the root
f(x) = 0 = 3x - 2
3x = 2
x = 2/3 Final result

You have 30 coins in your wallet, all dimes and nickels. If the total of the change in your wallet is $2.60, then how many dimes
lidiya [134]

Answer:

  • 22 dimes
  • 8 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

If all were dimes, you'd have $3.00. You have $0.40 less. Each dime that is replaced by a nickel subtracts $0.05, so there are $0.40/$0.05 = 8 nickels. That leaves 30-8 = 22 dimes.

You have 22 dimes and 8 nickels in your wallet.
