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 ^^

Q # 15 I need help please to resolve
kow [346]

The sequence is

740, 707.60,675.20,642.80,...

Here first term is 740, and common difference, d is

707.60-740 = -32.40

Now we use the formula of nth term, which is

a_{n} = a+(n-1)d

Substituting the values of a,n and d, we will get

=740+(n-1)(-32.40), 23 months

Correct option is the second option .

<h3>Answer: </h3><h3>See the attached image below for the table</h3>

In column 1 we have the x values 0, 4, 8, 12

In column 2, we have the y values 1, 2, 3, 4

==================================================

Explanation:

We can start with any x value we want. I find that 0 is easiest to work with, so why not start at x = 0. For the sake of not repeating, I'll use y = 1 as the start value for y.

The first row of the table is x = 0 and y = 1.

A slope of 1/4 means rise/run = 1/4. So rise = 1 and run = 4.

A rise of 1 indicates y goes up by 1. A run of 4 means x increases by 4.

So put together, slope = 1/4 means each time x goes up by 4, y goes up by 1.

-----------

If we started at x = 0, then going up by 4 leads to x = 4. If y starts at y = 1, then going up by 1 leads to y = 2.

The second row of the table is x = 4 and y = 2

We'll repeat the pattern of "add 4 to x, add 1 to y" getting the third row having x = 8 and y = 3

We can repeat as many times as we want. Doing another "up 1, over to the right 4" movement lands us on (x,y) = (12, 4)

The completed table is shown below in the attached image.

-----------

If you were to use the slope formula with any two rows of the table, then you should get m = 1/4

Let's do the first two rows

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (2-1)/(4-0)

m = 1/4

I'll let you check the other pairs of rows.

Write an equation in​ point-slope form of the line that passes through the given​ points, then write the equation in​ slope-inte
frosja888 [35]

As we go from (-6,6) to (9,1), x increases by 15 and y decreases by 5.  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -5/15, or m = -1/3.

Point-slope form:  y-6 = (-1/3)(x+6), using data from (-6,6).  

Slope-intercept form:  starting with y = mx + b, substit. -6 for x, 6 for y and -1/3 for m:

6 = (-1/3)(-6) + b, or

6 = 2 + b.  Then b = 4, and the equation in slope-intercept form is

y = (-1/3)x + 4.

In 2010 an item costs $9.00. The price increases by 1.5% each year. How much will it be in 2030?
Yanka [14]

Answer:11.7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Recognize variables. Starting price is 9, it’s increasing by 1.5% each year, the question asks for the price in 20 years.

2. Convert percentage to decimal. Most calculators won’t understand multiplying by percentages, and instead will understand multiplying by decimals. A decimal is something we can easily work with. It is more commonly taught to work with decimals as well. With that said 1.5% equals .015. (The number in the ones place in the percentage is always in the hundredths place when converted to a decimal, the tens to the tenths, the hundreds in the percentage to the ones place in the decimal, the hundredths in the percentage to the ten thousandths in the decimal. Basically, every individual number [the 5 in 1.5] moves two spaces to the right when going from percentage to decimal form, likewise two to the left going from decimal to percentage form. 23%=.23, 104%=1.04, 0.5%=.05, 1.234%=.01234)

3. Make your equation

20(9*(.015))+9

+9 is your starting point

9*(.015) gives you the amount the price increases per year

20 is multiplied then to that increased price for the next 20 years

4. Crunch em numbers
