Answer:

36 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the hours Jose worked, we can write an equation with the value x as our unknown, for the hours worked.

To construct this equation, we'll list out the values we have to include. The total will equal 528, so we know 528 will be on one side of the equation.

On the other side, we have the hourly rate plus the commission, 240. The rate is 8 dollars per hour. The unknown, or hours worked, is x. So, the rate is 8x. This is added to the weekly commission to equal his weekly paycheck.

8x, the hourly rate, + 240, the commission, = 528, the total paycheck.

The equation is-

8x + 240 = 528

Now we can solve the equation.

First subtract 240 from either side of the equals sign.

8x + 240 - 240 = 528 - 240

Simplify this to get-

8x = 288

Divide 8x by 8.

\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{288}{8}

Simplify.

x = 36

Jose worked 36 hours last week.

I hope this helps ^^

Pls solve fast ! I’m begging you ! The lesson is operations on functions
Oliga [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

1a. Just add both of them.

8x - 3 + 4x + 5 = 12x + 2

1b. We just subtract both of the functions.

(8x - 3) - (4x + 5) =

4x - 8

1c.

(8x - 3)(4x + 5)

32 {x}^{2}  + 28x - 15

1d.

\frac{8x - 3}{4x + 5}  = 2 - \frac{13}{4x + 5}

HELPP HELP. It’s about slope!!!! Explanation needed
OleMash [197]

Answer:

<em> x = -3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

A line has equation: y = ax + b

This line has slope a = 1

This line passes (4, 1)

=> 1 = 4 + b

=> b = -3

=> The equation of this line : y = x - 3

This line passes another point (x, -6)

=> -6 = x - 3

=> x = -6 + 3

=> x = -3

6000 is deposited into a fund at the annual rate of 9.5%. Find the time required for the investment to double if the interest is
Anna [14]

Answer: 7.58 years

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes to finding out how long it will take for an investment to double, one can use the Rule of 72.

The Rule of 72 estimates the amount of time it will take to double an investment when you divide 72 by the interest rate:

= 72 / r

= 72 / 9.5

= 7.58 years

Bailey bought a lawnmower for $600. The value of the lawnmower depreciates 2% every year. What is the value of the lawnmower aft
givi [52]

Answer:

$542

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a exponential decay function is given by

y=a(1-r)^x

where

y is the value of the lawnmower

x is the time in years

a is the initial value

r is the rate of change

we have

a=\$600\\r=2\%=2/100=0.02

substitute

y=600(1-0.02)^x

y=600(0.98)^x

For x=5 years

y=600(0.98)^5=\$542
