A: 25h
b:20h+30(h-30)
25h=20h+30(h-30)
5h=30h-30^2
-25h=-30^2
25h=30^2
h=900/25

Answer:

Each supervisor worked 60 hours during the week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Supervisor a:

Supervisor a earns a flat rate of $25 per hour.

So his earnings are

E_{a}(t) = 25t

In which t is the number of hours he works.

Suppervisor b:

$20 per hour for the first 30 hours and then 50% more for each additional hour within a work week.

Piecewise function. So

E_{b}(t) = \left \{ {{20t, t \leq 30} \atop {20t + 10(t - 30)}, t > 30} \right

If both supervisors worked the same number of hours and earned the same pay during one work week, how many hours did each supervisor work in that week?

Can only happen after 30 hours,s o this is when

25t = 20t + 10(t - 30)

25t = 20t + 10t - 300

5t = 300

t = \frac{300}{5}

t = 60

Each supervisor worked 60 hours during the week.

Since f(x) is up and down, simply decrease the overall equation by 2 to get 2sqrt(x+3)+3 instead of +5. To move it 5 to the right, we have to do something kind of weird, which is subtract 5 from (x+3) instead of add 5 to get

5x-(x+1)=5-2x i dont understand what to do. Plz help
Vlada [557]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-(x+1)=5-2x

distribute

5x-x-1 = 5-2x

4x-1 = 5-2x

add 2x on each side

4x-1+2x = 5-2x+2x

6x -1 = 5

add 1 on each side

6x-1+2 = 5+1

6x = 6

divide by 6

6x/6 = 6/6

x = 1
