we know he will earn 8 hours sofirst find how many he earns
9 per hour
8 hou
9*8=72
72+6*numberofdeliveries=155
minus 72
6*numberofdeliviers=83
divide by 6
number of delevieries=13.8
he can't make 13.8, round up to get 14

To first get rid of the $9 per hour do 8 x 9 (=72). Then do 155- 72 (=83)to show how much more money needs to be made, then 83/the amount of money for each delivery- which is 6. Then the answer is rounded up from 13.83333 to 14 and the answer is 14.

5 barrels catch rainwater in the schoolyard. Four barrels are the same size, and the fifth barrel holds 10 liters of water. Comb
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The volume each of the four barrels of the same size will be at least 47.5 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of each of the four barrels is v liters.

Now, the amount of water that can be held in the fifth barrel is 10 liters. The total capacity of holding water for the 5 barrels combines is at least 200 liters.

So, from the above-given information, we can write the inequality to determine the volume of each of the four barrels will be  

10 + 4v ≥ 200

Solving this we get,

4v ≥ 190

⇒ v ≥ 47.5

Therefore, the volume each of the four barrels of the same size will be at least 47.5 liters. (Answer)

Which second degree polynomial function f(x) has a lead coefficient of 3 and roots 4 and 1?
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

f(x) = 3x² - 15x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) has roots x = a and x = b, then

(x - a) and (x - b) are the factors

f(x) is then the product of the factors

f(x) = a(x - a)(x - b) ← where a is a multiplier

Given roots are x = 4 and x = 1, then

(x - 4) and (x - 1) are the factors

With a = 3, then

f(x) = 3(x - 4)(x - 1) ← expand factors using FOIL

     = 3(x² - 5x + 4) ← distribute

     = 3x² - 15x + 12
