Answer:

<u>Hours in first month = 8</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

AS it is given

He volunteered fr the first month = x hours

He volunteered for the second  month = 12/3 times of first month

which will be = 12/3 * x

Total Hours volunteered = 40 hours

Now according to the given conditions

Volunteered first month + volunteered second month = total

putting this gives

x + 12/3 8 x  = 40

as 12/3 = 4 so

it becomes

x + 4x = 40    

solcing it will gives

5x = 40

x = 40/5

x = 8

<u><em>So Numbers of hours worked in first month are 8</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

<u>I hope this help you! :)</u>

Write the equation of the circle with center (-4, 8) and passes through the point (-2, -1)
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

(x+4)^2+(y-8)^2=85

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation for a circle is given by:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.

We know that the center is (-4, 8). So, substitute -4 for h and 8 for k:

(x-(-4))^2+(y-8)^2=r^2\\

Simplify:

(x+4)^2+(y-8)^2=r^2

Now, we will need to find r.

We know that it passes through the point (-2, -1). So, we can substitute -2 for x and -1 for y and solve for r. So:

(-2+4)^2+(-1-8)^2=r^2

Evaluate:

(2)^2+(-9)^2=r^2

Square:

4+81=r^2

Add:

r^2=85

So, r squared is 85.

We don’t actually have to solve for r itself, since we will have to square it anyways.

So, we have:

(x+4)^2+(y-8)^2=r^2

Substituting 85 for r squared, we get:

(x+4)^2+(y-8)^2=85

And we have our equation.

A bank teller has some stacks of bills. The total value of the bills in each stack
Natali [406]
So since only 20 dollar bills and the other one is a 50
then

so we find some combos that will work
five 20's make 100
we notice that we can only have 20's in multipules of 5 to make 100's becauause 4 20's makes 80 and 3 20's make 60 and 2 20's make40 and none of those add to 50 evenly to make 100's
(probably confusing but I hope you understand if you think about it)

so we have
5 20's =100
10 20's=200
15 20's=300
20
25
30
35
40
45 20's=900
50 20's=1000

so how many multiplules did we have?
10
but wait, if we havve 1000 in all 20's we still need at least one 50 so we subtract 100
900:9
answe ris 9 stacks

answer is 9 stacks or A

Find the midpoint of (-7,-2) AND (1,7)
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

(-3 ,2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

midpoint formula is

 x1+x2        y1+y2

(___    ,    _____   )

  2                   2

(-7,-2)     -7 is x1 i.e the first x point and -2 is y1 1st y point

(1,7)        1 is x2 i.e the second x point and 7 is y2 the second y point

now we use input the numbers to the formula

-7+1         -2+7          

(____  , --------)

2             2

we the signs are different you subtract and use sign of greater number

-6          5

__ ,     ___

2           2

Now you divide

and here is the ordered pair for midpoint.

(-3 ,2.5)
