Answer:
- The first option: $265.05
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Option 1</h3>
<u>Payment as sequence:</u>
<u>This is an AP with:</u>
- The first term a = 11.75
- Common difference d = 0.35
- Number of terms n = 18
<u>Find the sum of the first 18 terms:</u>
- S₁₈ = (a + a₁₈)*18/2 = (a + a + 17d)*9 = (11.75*2 + 17*0.35)*9 = $265.05
<h3>Option 2</h3>
Flat rate $14.50 per hour
<u>The sum is:</u>
<u>Compared, we see the first option pays more:</u>
For x-intercepts "b" and "c", a quadratic can be written as
y = a(x -b)(x -c)
You know the x-intercepts, so you can write the equation as
y = a(x +2)(x -3) . . . . . . eliminates the first two answer choices
Substituting (x, y) = (-1, 2), you have
2 = a(-1+2)(-1-3) = -4a
Then dividing by -4 gives
-2/4 = a = -1/2 . . . . . corresponds to the third answer choice
The appropriate selection is
y = -1/2 (x + 2)(x - 3)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
At least means greater than or equal to, so that is the symbol we will use. Now, we want the inequality to compare the distance she plans to jog and the amount of time jogged multiplied by the speed, since time times speed equals distance.
Writing this out we get 1.5 ≤ 3.75x
so 1.5 will always be less than or equal to the distance jogged. let me know if there is something you don't understand. But after this just solve for x.
Answer:
(x² + 18) units²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle = l*w
There are two shaded rectangles found inside the large rectangle. Let us represent the smaller shaded one as Rectangle 1, the bigger shaded rectangle as Rectangle 2.
Below are the dimensions and area if each of them:
Rectangle 1 (small shaded rectangle):
l = x
w = x
Area = x * x = x² units²
Rectangle 2 (bigger shaded rectangle):
l = 9
w = 2
Area = 9*2 = 18 units²
Total area of the shaded rectangles = x² + 18 = (x² + 18) units²
