Answer:

15 cm on the map is equal to 25 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

On a map, 9 cm represents 15 miles.

The distance between two cities is 15 cm. We need to find the distance in miles.

9 cm = 15 miles

1\ cm=\dfrac{15}{9}\ \miles

So, 15 cm is equal to,

15\ cm=\dfrac{15}{9}\times 15\ miles\\\\=25\ miles

So, 15 cm on the map is equal to 25 miles.

Josephine has a rectangular garden with an area of 2x2 + x – 6 square feet. A rectangle labeled 2 x squared + x minus 6 Which ex
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

2x^2 + x - 6 = rectangular garden: <u><em>length = 2x – 3 feet; width = x + 2 feet</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x - 3)(x + 2) = 2x^2 + x - 6 =

2x^2 + 4x - 3x - 6 = 2x^2 + x - 6 =

2x^2 + x - 6

You get the original equation from the two sides multiplied. :)

Hope this helps, have a good day.

PROBLEM: Juan hires an electrician. Juan pays a one-time fee of $30. Juan also pays $45 for each hour the electrician works. A.
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

A: C=45h+30

B: C=$322.50

Step-by-step explanation:

A: We'll start with the equation for the total charge. Juan is saying he will pay a one time fee of $30, meaning there is 30 dollars added to what ever the hourly wage is. This can be represented by the +30. Now if "h" represents the variable for which the hourly wage will be calculated, and he pays $45 dollars per hour this will be represented as 45h. <em>As an example if I pay you 2 dollars per hour using the same variable "h", this would be represented as 2h. So if you worked for two hours you would get 4 dollars, this is proven by the fact the 2(2) (remeber im replacing the "h" with the hours you worked) obviously 2 times 2 is 4 proving my point. </em>This information will give you the equation you see above.

B: Onto solving for how much Juan will pay. Now you say youre supposed to have 9 answer but this can't be true. All you need to do is plug the hours given into "h" and solve the equation. It should look something like:

<u>C=45h+30</u>

<u>C=45(6.5)+30</u>

Im using a decimal because it should be clear 1/2=0.5

<u>C= 292.5+30</u>

45x6.5 always go with PEMDAS, we are multiplying first. Then add 292.5 plus 30

This results in the answer of:

<u>C=$322.50</u>

Choose the equation and the inequality needed to answer this question.
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Actually, what you said you have so far is not correct.  The 2 correct answers are the 1st one (x + y = 15) and the 5th one (15x + 10y > 180)

Step-by-step explanation:

If tutoring French is x hours and scooping ice cream is y hours and he is going to work 15 hours for sure doing both, then we can add them together to get that x hours + y hours = 15 hours, or put simply:  x + y = 15.

Now we are going to throw in the added fun of the money he makes doing each.  The thing to realize here is that we can only add like terms.  So looking at the equation above, we have x hours of tutoring and y hours of scooping, so if we want to add them, we will add those number of hours together to get the total number of hours he worked, which we know to be 15.  The same goes for money.  If we add money earned from tutoring to money earned from scooping, we need that to be greater than the money he wants to earn which is 180 at least.  Because he wants to earn MORE than $180. we use the ">" sign.  Since he earns $15 an hour tutoring, that expression is $15x; since he earns $10 an hour scooping, that expression is $10y.  Now add them together (and you CAN because they are both expressions relating dollars to dollars) and set the sum > $180:

$15x + $10y > $180.  That's why your answer is not correct.  Use mine (with the understanding that you care about why yours is wrong and mine is correct) and you'll be fine.
