Karen makes $5 per hour baby-sitting and $12 per hour giving music lessons. one weekend, she worked a total of 18 hours and made

$139. how many hours did she spend baby-sitting?
Mathematics

Elis [28]3 years ago

Let the number of hours she spent in baby- sitting is x

and the number of hours she spent in music lessons is y.

Now, we have been given that she worked a total of 18 hours. Hence, we have

x+y=18\\
y=18-x...............................(1)

And she made $139. Thus, we have

5x+12y=139..............................(2)

Substituting the value of y from equation 1 in 2, we get

5x+12(18-x)=139\\
5x+216-12x=139\\
-7x=-77\\
x=11

Therefore, she spent 11 hours in baby-sitting.

Just need help on #7 thru 8(a), b and c
Stella [2.4K]

7

a. The slope of the line passing through the points R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is -3/4

b. The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is 5 units

c.  The midpoint of the R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is  (2, 4)

8.

a. The transformation rule is  (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1)

b.

  • The x-coordinate is shifted 1 unit to the left and
  • The y - coordinate is shifted 1 unit downwards.

c. The image of B' the pre-image of B(5, 6) is (6, 5)

<h3 /><h3>7 a. How to find the slope of the line?</h3>

The slope of a line passing through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Given that

  • (x₁, y₁) = (3, 5) and
  • (x₂,y₂) = (-1, 2)

So, m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m = (2 - 5)/(-1 - 3)

m = -3/-4

m = -3/4

So, the slope of the line passing through the points R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is -3/4

<h3>b. The distance between the points</h3>

The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is d = √[(y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²]

Given that

  • (x₁, y₁) = (3, 5) and
  • (x₂,y₂) = (-1, 2)

d = √[(y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²]

d = √[(2 - 5)² + (-1 - 3)²]

d = √[(-3)² + (-4)²]

d = √[9 + 16]

d = √25

d = 5 units

So, the distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is 5 units

<h3>7 c How to find the midpoint of the R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) </h3>

The midpoint of the the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is (x, y)  = [(x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2]

Given that

  • (x₁, y₁) = (3, 5) and
  • (x₂,y₂) = (-1, 2)

So, the midpoint (x, y)  = [(x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2]

(x, y)  = [(3 + (-1))/2, (5 + 3)/2]

(x, y)  = [(3 - 1)/2, (5 + 3)/2]

(x, y)  = [4/2, 8/2]

(x, y)  = (2, 4)

So, the midpoint of the R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is  (2, 4)

<h3>8. a The rule for the transformation of point A(1, 4) to point B(2, 3)</h3>

Given that point A(1, 4) and point B(2, 3) we see that point B(1 + 1, 4 - 1).

Let pont A be (x,y).

So, point B = (x + 1, y - 1)

So, the transformation rule is  (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1)

<h3>b. Describe the transformation</h3>

Since the transformation rule is   (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1), we see that

  • the x-coordinate is shifted 1 unit to the left and
  • the y - coordinate is shifted 1 unit downwards.
<h3>c. The image of B' the pre-image of B(5, 6)</h3>

Since the transformation rule is  (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1) and point B is (5, 6), thus the image of B' is

(x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1)

(5,6) → (5 + 1, 6 - 1)

(5,6) → (6, 5)

So, the image of B' the pre-image of B(5, 6) is (6, 5)

Solve the system of equations using substitution
Andru [333]

Answer:

x = 136/11 , y = 68/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{6 x - y = 68

2 y = x

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the second equation, look to solve for x:

{6 x - y = 68

2 y = x

Hint: | Reverse the equality in 2 y = x in order to isolate x to the left hand side.

2 y = x is equivalent to x = 2 y:

{6 x - y = 68

x = 2 y

Hint: | Perform a substitution.

Substitute x = 2 y into the first equation:

{11 y = 68

x = 2 y

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the first equation, look to solve for y:

{11 y = 68

x = 2 y

Hint: | Solve for y.

Divide both sides by 11:

{y = 68/11

x = 2 y

Hint: | Perform a back substitution.

Substitute y = 68/11 into the second equation:

{y = 68/11

x = 136/11

Hint: | Sort results.

Collect results in alphabetical order:

Answer: {x = 136/11 , y = 68/11

7.959 to one decimal place .
o-na [289]

Answer:

8.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are trying to find the nearest tenth decimal place, we look at the hundredths place to figure it out. Since it is ≥5, we round up.

What are the first 5 terms of the sequence where a=1 a, a2=2 and an=1/2(a n-1•a n-2)
Sliva [168]

Answer:

\large\boxed{a.\ 1,\ 2,\ 1,\ 1,\ \dfrac{1}{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the recursive formula of a sequence:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}a_1=1\\a_2=2\\a_n=\dfrac{1}{2}(a_{n-1}\cdot a_{n-2})\end{array}\right\\\\\text{thereofre}\\\\a_3=\dfrac{1}{2}(a_2\cdot a_1)=\dfrac{1}{2}(2\cdot1)=\dfrac{1}{2}(2)=1\\\\a_4=\dfrac{1}{2}(a_3\cdot a_2)=\dfrac{1}{2}(1\cdot2)=\dfrac{1}{2}(2)=1\\\\a_5=\dfrac{1}{2}(a_4\cdot a_3)=\dfrac{1}{2}(1\cdot1)=\dfrac{1}{2}(1)=\dfrac{1}{2}
