since we know the plumber charges $32 for one hour of work, if the plumber works

1 hour, that's 32(1)

2 hours........ 32(2)

3 hours.........32(3)

4hours...........32(4)

x hours...........32(x) => 32x.


the cost of materials is $46, so your total charge for getting the lizard out of the bathtub pipe is the hours rate plus the 46 bucks, namely 32x + 46, and incidentally we know that's $134.


\bf 32x+46=134\implies 32x=88\implies x=\cfrac{88}{32}\implies x=\cfrac{11}{4} \\[2em] x=2\frac{3}{4}\impliedby \textit{2 hours and 45 minutes}

Kobotan [32]

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to subtract the amount of fabric used (3yd) to the total fabric that Demarco has (6yd)

6 -3 =3yd

Finally, we have to divide the result by the length of each strip piece (3/4yd)

3÷ 3/4= 4 pieces  

There are 4 3/4 yd long strips.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Janelle draws line segments AB and BC in the same plane such that AB = 8 cm and BC = 6 cm. Then Janelle draws
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

• AB, BC, and AC form a triangle. Enter a possible value of AC....

So it asks for only a possible value of AC as there are many possible values.

Given AB = 8 cm and BC = 6 cm, they are in the ratio of 3:4.

Line segments of 3, 4 and 5 length will form a right-angled triange.

A possible value of AC = 5*2 = 10cm

• Points A, B, and C lie on the same line, and C lies between A and B.

So AC+CB = AB

AC+6 = 8

AC = 2cm

Enter this value of AC in the second

response box.
