Use substitution
Plug in 5x for y
5x = 2x - 15
Subtract 2x
3x = -15
Divide by 3
x = -5, y = -25
Solution: (-5, -25)

What two ordered pairs will show both intercepts for y=6x-5
podryga [215]

The equation is y=6x-5

y-intercept:

y=6(0) -5 = -5

so ordered pair for y intercept is (0,-5)

x-intercept:

0=6x-5

x=5/6

ordered pair for x-intercept is (5/6 , 0)

so the two ordered pairs are (0,-5) and (5/6,0)

Pam works a 52 hours in a week. Considering that a normal work week is 40 hours and paid at $1470 per hour and overtime is paid
Bezzdna [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

they way it is written, she has one of the best paying jobs in the world : $1470 per hour ...

but I guess it is really $14.70 per hour, right ?

that is then her basic wage : $14.70 per hour for 40 hours = 14.7 × 40 = $588.

her overtime rate is then 14.7×1.25 (one time and a quarter) = 18.375 ≈ $18.38

and she gets that rate for all hours beyond the basic 40 hours, so, 52-40 = 12 hours.

12×18.38 = $220.56

or if you need it totally precise

12×18.375 = $220.50

in total, her gross wage for that week is then

588 + 220.56 = $808.56

or totally precise with unrounded hourly rates

588 + 220.5 = $808.50

which would create a mean hourly rate

808.56/52 = $15.54923077... per hour ≈ $15.55 per hour

or

808.5/52 = $15.54807692... per hour ≈ $15.55 per hour

many payroll systems do the rounding of the hourly rates and then calculate the total amount (as the first option here). some others keep the full decimal positions in the calculation and then only round the total (as the second option here).

so, it is the question what your teacher expects here. I cannot tell from the description.

Solve y=15(9860)+6997 step by step please!! I'm Stupid :(
puteri [66]
I would probably distribute 15 with the parentheses 15x 9860 which is 147,900 then you would add 6997+147,900
Y= 154187
