Answer:

12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

base fee= $60

charge per hour= $15

let the number of hours the plumber work be x

the linear function for the charge is the equation of line.

that is y=mx+c

Step two:

given that y=$240

240=15x+60

240-60=15x

180=15x

divide both sides by 15 we have

x=180/15

x=12

<u>The number of hours is 12</u>

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: f(0) = 7.07 units

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2(x)² +5√(x + 2)               function

f(0) = 2(0)² +5√(0 + 2)                substitution

f(0) = 0 + 5√2                             simplify

f(0) = 5√2

Sarafina is making monthly payments into an annuity. She wants to have $800 in fund to buy a new convection range in three month
victus00 [196]

Answer:

  $265.07

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the future value of an annuity is applicable.

  A = P((1+r)^n-1)/r . . . . where r is the monthly interest rate and n is the number of months. P is the monthly payment, and A is the amount of the future value.

  800 = P(1.006^3 -1)/(.006) = 3.018036P

  P = 800/3.018036 ≈ 265.07

Sarafina's monthly payments need to be $265.07.

_____

This is about $1.60 less than the 266.67 she would deposit if she simply divided the desired balance by the number of months.

Because this number is rounded down, Sarafina will have a balance after 3 months of $799.99.
