Answer:
11.x=16 12.x=37
Step-by-step explanation:
11.
20^2-12^2=x^2
256=x^2
x=√256
x=16
12.
13^2-5^2=y^2
144=y^2
y=12
/
y^2+35^2=x^2
12^2+35^2=x^2
1369=x^2
x=37
Answer:
1)( y= 0.12 * x ) y(dependent) , x(independent) 2) x=150 : y=18 / x=300 : y=36 / x=450 : y=54 / x=600 : y=72 / x=750 : y=90 / x=900 : y=108 3) 300+750+1050=2100 pound
2100*0.12=252 pound food they need to eat in each day
252*7=1764 pound in each month
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this up as a proportion, with inches on the top and feet on the bottom for our scale. We will find the actual length first, then we'll find the width.

Cross multiply to get that the actual length is 5(2.5) = 12.5 feet. Now for the width:

Cross multiply to get that the actual width is 5(3) = 15 feet.
If you want the area of the room, multiply the length times the width to get
A = 15(12.5)
A = 187.5 feet squared
I am setting the week hourly rate to x, and the weekend to y. Here is how the equation is set up:
13x + 14y = $250.90
15x + 8y = $204.70
This is a system of equations, and we can solve it by multiplying the top equation by 4, and the bottom equation by -7. Now it equals:
52x + 56y = $1003.60
-105x - 56y = -$1432.90
Now we add these two equations together to get:
-53x = -$429.30 --> 53x = $429.30 --> (divide both sides by 53) x = 8.10. This is how much she makes per hour on a week day.
Now we can plug in our answer for x to find y. I am going to use the first equation, but you could use either.
$105.30 + 14y = $250.90. Subtract $105.30 from both sides --> 14y = $145.60 divide by 14 --> y = $10.40
Now we know that she makes $8.10 per hour on the week days, and $10.40 per hour on the weekends. Subtracting 8.1 from 10.4, we figure out that she makes $2.30 more per hour on the weekends than week days.
