Part 1: Ashely earns $15 per hour. Define the variables and state which quantity is a function of the other.

1 answer:

7 0

Part 1:
Variable x - number of the hours.
Variable y - her total income.
y = f ( x ), Her total income is a function of the hours she worked.
Part 2 :
The function is: y = 15 * x
Part 3 :
f ( 35 ) = 15 * 35 = $525
f ( 29 ) = 15 * 29 = $435
Week 1 : Ashley worked 35 hours. She earned $525.
Week 2: Ashley worked 29 hours. She earned $435.

Two cargo ships are sailing a direct course into harbor. Ship A is 22 miles from harbor. Ship Bis sailing into harbor on a cours

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The distance of ship B from the Harbor is 32.26 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Equations.

I have added a visual aid of the problem. As we can see the courses of both ship to the harbor forms a triangle with ship B being the hypotenuse. Since we are given the distance of the course for ship A and the angle between both ships, we can use this information with the <u>COSINE operator</u> to solve for the length of the course of ship B.

$cos(x) = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$
