Answer:
36 objects
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the value of x when t=9, so you're solving ...
9 = 0.007x^2 +0.003x
9 = 0.007(x^2 + 3/7x)
From here, we observe that an approximation is probably sufficient.
9/0.007 = x(x +3/7) . . . . . the expression on the right is nearly x^2
x ≈ 3/√.007 ≈ 35.9 ≈ 36
We can check:
.007(36)(36 3/7) = 9.18
.007(35)(35 3/7) = 8.68
To keep the computer busy for 9 seconds, it needs to sort 36 objects.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Represent Babysitting with B
Represent Gas Station with G
Total workhours = At most 15
Earnings = At least $90
First, we need to represent the work hours as inequality
B + G = At most 15
At most 15 means less than or equal to 15.
So, we have:
Next, we represent the earnings as inequality.
6 hours of babysitting is: 6B
10 hours at gas station is: 10G
So:
6B + 10G is at least 90
At least 90 means greater than or equal to 90
So, we have:
