According to given information,
Equation of Melinda Earning = 75 + 12x
Equation of Marcus Earning = 15x
Where, x = Number of hours they worked.

Now, we need to calculate when they will have same amount of money, so for that instance they shall equal to each other.
75 + 12x = 15x
15x - 12x = 75
3x = 75
x = 75/3
x = 25

After 25 hours, they will have the money = 15(25) = $375

So, your final answer is $375

Hope this helps!

Answer:

$\displaystyle \large{(x + 9)(x - 8)}$

The value of a is 9 and b is -8

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle \large{(x + a)(x + b) = {x}^{2} + (a + b)x + ab}$

We need to find two numbers that add up or subtract off to 1.

Then we also use the same two numbers that multiply and get -72.

Let's see:-

9 and -8 seem like correct values.

Because 9+(-8) is 9-8 = 1

And 9(-8) is -72.

Therefore:

$\displaystyle \large{ {x}^{2} + x - 72 = (x + 9)(x - 8)}$

The value of a is 9 and the value of b is -8 according to form of (x+a)(x+b)

a stone is thrown downward with an intitial velocity of 29.5 m/sec will travel a distance of a meters, where s(t) = 4.9t^2 + 29.

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

t = 9 s

Step-by-step explanation:

A stone is thrown downward with an intitial velocity of 29.5 m/sec will travel a distance of a meters, where

$s(t) = -4.9t^2 + 29.4+132.3$

We need to find when the stone will hit the ground. It means when s(t) = 0. So,

$-4.9t^2 + 29.4t+132.3=0\\\\t=-3\ and\ t=9$

So, the stone will take 9 seconds to hit the ground. Hence, this is the required solution.
