Jim's wages vary directly as the numbers of hours he works. For 7 hours, he makes

Blababa [14]

Answer:

$205.35

Step-by-step explanation:

First, divide 38.85 by 7. You should get 5.55 for every 1 hour.

Then, multiply 5.55 by 37. You should get 205.35

So for 37 hours, Jim will earn 205.35

You have two parents, four grandparents, eight greatgrandparents, and so forth.

A.
In the first generation we have 2 ancestors.
In the second generation we have 4 ancestors or $2^{2}$ ancestors.
In the third generation we have 8 ancestors ot $2^{3}$ ancestors.

We can see that each succesive generation has two times more members. The sum is:
$2+4+8+16+...+ 2^{40}$

To calculate number of ancestors we can use formula for the sum of a geometric sequence. Geometric sequence is sequence of numbers that differ by a certain factor. This factor is called ratio. Formula is:
 $S= a_{1} * \frac{1- r^{n} }{1-r}$
Where:
S -> sum
a1 -> first member of a sequence
r -> ratio
n -> number of elements

For this question:
a1 = 2
r = 2
n = 40
 $S= 2* \frac{1- 2^{40} }{1-2} =2 199 023 255 550$

b.
1 generation = 25 years
40 generations = 40 * 25 = 1000 years

c.
Total number of people who have ever lived = $10^{10}$
Number of ancestors in 40 generations = $2.2*10^{12}$

The number of ancestors is greater than total number of people who have ever lived. This means that not all ancestors were distinct and that in each generation both men and women had children with more than one partner.

Determine which set of side measurements could be used to form a right triangle.

musickatia [10]

The set of side measurements that could be used to form a right triangle is 3, 4 and 5 option (D) is correct.

What is a right-angle triangle?

It is a triangle in which one of the angles is 90 degrees and the other two are sharp angles. The sides of a right-angled triangle are known as the hypotenuse, perpendicular, and base.

It is given that:

The side length of the triangle is shown in the option:

As we know,

Pythagoras' theorem is the square of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Using Pythagoras' theorem:

From option(D):

3, 4 and 5

(3)² + (4)² = 5²

9 + 16 = 25 (True)

Thus, the set of side measurements that could be used to form a right triangle is 3, 4 and 5 option (D) is correct.
