In math, when you see the word "of" it usually means "times".
So the question is:
<u>2/3 times something = 10</u>
Multiply each side of the equation by 3 :
2 times something = 30
Divide each side by 2 :
<em> something = 15</em>
Answer:
f(x) = 12x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
We need a linear equation in the slope-intercept form.
y = mx + b
where y = total pay, m = hourly salary, x = number of hours worked, and b = y-intercept, or initial value
Let's look in the table.
1 hour: $22
2 hours: $34
The difference in pay between 1 hour and 2 hours is $34 - $22 = $12.
The difference in time between 1 hour and 2 hours is 1 hour.
In 1 hour he earns $12. That means the slope is 12.
We know he earns $22 for working a total of 1 hour.
Start at 1 hour and $22 on the table.
Subtract 1 hour from 1 hour to get 0 hours.
Subtract $12 form $22 to get $10.
That means for 0 hours he gets $10. b = 10
The equation is
y = 12x + 10
In function form, we have:
f(x) = 12x = 10
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Cost of game = $120</em>
<em>Current savings = $30</em>
<em>Rate for babysitting (per hour) = $5/hour</em>
<em></em>
<em>So, required equation is :-</em>
<em>120 = 5h + 30</em>
<em>5h = 90</em>
<em>h = 18</em>
<em></em>
<em>She must make $90 by babysitting for 18 more hours.</em>
