Answer:
Week=25 Hours
Weekend= 5 Hours
Step-by-step explanation:
So we need to use the info they gave us and create two equations. Firstly we know how much he gets paid per hour during the week (x) and how much he gets paid on the weekend (y).
$20x+$30y=$650
We get this because we know the combined rates he is paid times the hours should add up to the amount he earned.
The next equation will be made off of the information that he worked 5 times as many hours during the week as on the weekend. This tells us that we will take the weekend hours (y) and multiply them by 5 in order to get the week hours (x).
x=5y Now, since we have one variable by itself, we can plug it in for x in the first equation.
20(5y)+30y=650 Our first step here is to distribute the 20 to the 5y in order to eliminate the parenthesis.
100y+30y=650 Next add the like terms together (100y+30y).
Now all we have to do to find y is divide by 130 on both sides to get y alone.
130y=650
________
130 130
y=5 Now to solve for x we just plug our y value into one of the equations above. I'm going to use the second equation.
x=5(5)
x=25
Answer:
4.7 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The original is 12.5, and it was shortened to 7.8. So take the original, subtract the result, and you will get the answer.
12.5-7.8=4.7
Answer:
c. 33.0%
d. 14.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
For answering questions about percentages in different categories or combinations of categories, it is convenient to find the totals of rows and columns in the table. These totals are shown in the attached.
__
<h3>c.</h3>
Students who surf total 32+65 = 97. Of those, 32 also skateboard. The requested percentage is ...
32/97 × 100% ≈ 33.0% . . . . surfers who also skateboard
__
<h3>d.</h3>
The total number of students is 166. Of those, the number who neither surf nor skateboard is 24. That percentage is ...
24/166 × 100% ≈ 14.5% . . . . students who don't surf or skateboard
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
a. 97/166 ≈ 58.4% surf
b. 89/166 ≈ 53.6% do not skateboard
__
This sort of table is called a "two-way table." One set of categories is represented in rows, another set is represented in columns. This table is filled with <em>frequencies</em>. Such tables can also display <em>relative frequencies</em> by dividing the entire table by the total of totals in the lower right corner.
Answer:
74 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Let x = number of weeks
Gallon A:
Capacity = 666
Leak rate = 4 gallons per week
666 - 4x
Gallon B:
Capacity = 888
Leak rate = 7 gallons per week
888 - 7x
666- 4x = 888 - 7x
666 - 888 = - 7x + 4x
-222 = - 3x
x = 222 / 3
x = 74
After 74 weeks
