Answer:










Step-by-step explanation:

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.
You’re given g(x) = x^2 - 5
When asked to find g(9), you’re being told that x=9, since the x in the g(x) was replaced by 9.
So that’s telling you to put 9 in for all x’s:
g(9) = (9)^2 - 5
You then just need to clear up the right hand side.
9^2 - 5 = 81 - 5
= 76
So, g(9) = 76
You only flip the inequality sign when you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number.
================================================
Problem 1

The inequality sign flip happens because we divided both sides by -8.
The graph will have a closed circle at 4 with shading to the left.
Three solutions are x = 0, x = 1, x = 2. You can pick any three numbers you want as long as they are 4 or smaller.
================================================
Problem 2

The graph will have an open circle at 13/3 = 4&1/3 = 4.333 approx. The shading is to the left. No inequality sign flip happens because we divided both sides by a positive number.
Your choice of three solutions is correct. You can pick anything smaller than 4.3333
================================================
Problem 3

The solution set is any value 3 or larger. Three solutions are x = 5, x = 6 and x = 7.
The graph has a closed circle at 3 on the number line. The shading is to the right.
It's pretty simple if you just read through it carefully. Here you go.
