A store manager wants to determine how much to pay her employees. The number of hours the employees work is x, and the hourly wa

ge that they are paid is y. The store manager is willing to pay the employees a wage given by the equation 10y-30x=20 . The business owner states that the employees should be paid a wage given by the equation 6y+30x=60. If the two equations were added then simplified to determine hourly wage, y, how much would the employees be paid?

Answer:

<em>The employees will work for 1 hour, will earn $5 per hour and will be paid $5</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>System of Equations</u>

The number of hours the employees work is x.

And the hourly wage that they are paid is y. The store manager is willing to pay the employees a wage given by the equation

10y-30x=20

The business owner states that the employees should be paid a wage given by the equation

6y+30x=60

Adding both equations we have:

16y = 80

Dividing by 16:

y = 80/16 = 5

Substituting into the first equation:

10*5-30x=20

Operating and simplifying:

50-30x=20

50 - 20 = 30x

30x = 30

x = 30/30 = 1

Thus, the employees will work for 1 hour, will earn $5 per hour and will be paid $5

Interpreting the inequality, it is found that the correct option is given by F.

------------------

  • The first equation is of the line.
  • The equal sign is present in the inequality, which means that the line is not dashed, which removes option G.

In standard form, the equation of the line is:

x + 2y = 6

2y = 6 - x

y = -0.5x + 2

Thus it is a decreasing line, which removes options J.

  • We are interested in the region on the plane below the line, that is, less than the line, which removes option H.

------------------

  • As for the second equation, the normalized equation is:

3x^2 + 3y^2 = 12

3(x^2 + y^2) = 12

x^2 + y^2 = 4

  • Thus, a circle centered at the origin and with radius 2.
  • Now, we have to check if the line x + 2y - 6 = 0, with coefficients a = 1, b = 2, c = -6, intersects the circle, of centre x = 0, y = 0
  • First, we find the following distance:

d = \sqrt{\frac{|ax + by + c|}{a^2 + b^2}}

  • Considering the coefficients of the line and the center of the circle.

d = \sqrt{\frac{|1(0) + 2(0) - 6|}{1^2 + 2^2}} = \sqrt{\frac{6}{5}} = 1.1

  • This distance is less than the radius, thus, the line intersects the circle, which removes option K, and states that the correct option is given by F.

g Two teams compete in the NBA (National Basketball Associa- tion) championshipseries. The team who wins four games out of seven
Firlakuza [10]

Answer: The required probability is 0.32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of winning team A over B = 0.7

Probability of losing team A over B = 0.3

Number of matches = 7"

So, using the "Binomial distribution" :

We get that

P(X=5)=^7C_5(0.7)^5(0.3)^2=0.32

Hence, the required probability is 0.32.
