Given:
Karen earns $54.60 for working 6 hours.
Amount she earns varies directly with the number of hours she works.
She need to work to earn an additional $260.
To find:
Number of hours she need to work to earn an additional $260.
Solution:
Let the amount of earnings be A and number of hours be t.
According to question,
...(i)
where, k is constant of proportionality.
Karen earns $54.60 for working 6 hours.
Divide both sides by 6.
Put k=9.1 in (i).
Substitute A=260 in the above equation.
Divide both sides by 9.1.
Therefore, she need to work extra about 29 hours to earn an additional $260.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I am sorry this is to confusing for me
Let's call the two numbers a and b. So we know that the difference of the two numbers is 36:
a - b = 36
And we know that their sum is 286:
a + b = 286
We can use either of these equations to solve for one of the variables in terms of the other variable. Let's use the first and solve for a:
a - b = 36
a = 36 + b
Now we plug this into the other equation and solve for b there:
(36 + b) + b = 286
36 + 2b = 286
2b = 250
b = 125
The answer is B because if you get 5 on the first test then you will have 10 already. if you get at least 1 point on the second then you will have 11 or higher. since the 1st is doubled then the shaded region will retreat by 2 squares for every point less then the maximum you get on the first test.
