Answer:
16.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The bicycle costs $240. Eva already has $42. She is making $12 per hour.
240 = 12x + 42
Solve for x to find out how many hours Eva needs to work to buy the bicycle.
240 = 12x + 42
240 - 42 = (12x + 42) - 42
198 = 12x
198/12 = (12x)/12
16.5 = x
Eva needs to work 16.5 hours to be able to buy the bikw.
Get the x terms by themselves on one side and a constant on the other side of the equal sign...
4x^2-8x=1 make the leading coefficient equal to one...
x^2-2x=1/4 now halve the linear coefficient, -2 in this case, square it, and add that value to both sides of the equation...-2/2=-1, -1^2=1 so
x^2-2x+1=1+1/4
x^2-2x+1=5/4 now the left side is a perfect square...
(x-1)^2=5/4 take the square root of both sides...
x-1=±√(5/4) add 1 to both sides
x=1±√(5/4)
2 3/4 + 1 5/8 + 1 5/8 =
2 + 1 + 1 = 4 (add the whole numbers)
3/4 + 5/8 + 5/8 = 6/8 + 5/8 + 5/8 = 16/8 = 2 (add the fractions)
4 + 2 = 6 total lbs
5.40 for 6 lbs = 5.40/6 = 0.90 (so the apples cost 90 cents per lb)
