Jose is working two summer jobs, making $10 per hour washing cars and $9 per hour walking dogs. Last week Jose worked a total of

13 hours and earned a total of $122. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of hours Jose worked washing cars last week and the number of hours he worked walking dogs last week. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answer:

x+y =13

10x + 9y =122

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write a system of equations:

The sum of the hours he worked washing cars (x) and the hours he worked walking dogs(y) will be equal to the total hours worked (13)

  • x+y =13

For the second equation the product of the number of hours he worked washing cars(x) and the price per hour ($10) plus the product of the number of hours he worked walking dogs (y) and the price per hour ($9) will be equal to the total amount earned (122)-

  • 10x + 9y =122

So, the system of equations is:

  • x+y =13
  • 10x + 9y =122

Where:

x: number of hours Jose worked washing cars

y: number of hours Jose worked walking dogs

Answer:

The expected value of profit is -0.5125. This is expected loss as value is negative.        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

P(winning) = 0.075

Thus,

P(Loosing) =

1 - 0.075 = 0.925

If we win we gain a profit of $5.50 and if we loose the lottery, we loose $1.

Thus, we can form the probability distribution in the following manner:

  Event:      Winning       Loosing

Profit(x):      +5.50               -1

     P(x):       0.075             0.925

We have to calculate the expected value of the profit.

E(X) = \displaystyle\sum x_i(P(x_i))\\E(x) = +5.50(0.075) + (-1)(0.925)\\E(x) = -0.5125

Thus, the expected value of profit is -0.5125. This is expected loss as value is negative.

The given polygons are similar

Step-by-step explanation:

By observing the given diagrams, we can see that the respective angles are congruent.

Two shapes are said to be similar if they have same shapes or one shape is created by uniformly increasing or decreasing the side of other.

For this purpose we find the scale factor of greater to smaller image, if the scale factor is same for each side then the two shapes are similar

So,

The scale factor is:

\frac{EF}{AB} = \frac{3}{1} = 3\\\\\frac{FG}{BC} = \frac{9}{3} = 3\\\\\frac{GH}{CD} = \frac{15}{5} = 3\\\\\frac{EH}{AD} = \frac{21}{7} = 3

We can see that the scale factor is same for all sides.

Hence,

The given polygons are similar
