Answer:

The length of PR is 15.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We will solve the question using the cosine rule

In ΔPQR

∵ (PR)² = (PQ)² + (RQ)² - 2(PQ)(RQ)(cos∠Q)

∵ PQ = 17.8 cm

∵ RQ = 26.3 cm

∵ m∠Q = 36°

→ Substitute them in the rule above

∵ (PR)² = (17.8)² + (26.3)² - 2(17.8)(26.3)(cos36)

∴ (PR)² = 316.84 + 691.69 - 936.28(cos36)

∴ (PR)² = 251.0635685

→ Take √ for both sides

∴ PR = 15.8449856

→ Correct it to 3 significant figures

∴ PR = 15.8 cm

∴ The length of PR is 15.8 cm

9(m - 3) + 3m = 7m + 43

frozen [14]

$\begin{gathered} 9(m-3)+3m=7m+43 \\ \text{Multiply the parenthesis by 9 and you have} \\ \\ (9\times m-9\times\lbrack-3\rbrack)+3m=7m+43 \\ \text{Next you have} \\ 9m-27+3m=7m+43 \\ \text{Note that the 9 multiplies the m to get 9m,} \\ \text{and the 9 also multiplies the negative 3 to arrive at negative 27.} \\ \text{After applying 9 to open the parenthesis, you now have } \\ 9m-27+3m=7m+43 \\ \text{You collect like terms. In this case all expressions that have m are like terms} \\ \text{The ones that does not have m are also like terms but, separate} \\ \text{Collect like terms with m on to the left hand side} \\ 9m+3m-7m=43+27 \\ \text{Note that whenever a positive number moves over across the sign of equality,} \\ it\text{ becomes a negative number and vice versa.} \\ \text{Hence 7m has moved and now becomes -7m} \\ \text{Also -27 has moved and now becomes +27} \\ 9m+3m-7m=43+27 \\ 5m=70 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 5 to eliminate it from the left side} \\ \text{and hence m would now stand alone} \\ \frac{5m}{5}=\frac{70}{5} \\ m=14 \end{gathered}$

What is the weekly gross pay?

romanna [79]

You want to multiply 40 hours by the regular hourly pay which would be $9.14,
9.14*40= 365.6

Overtime is generally 1.5 times regular pay so take 9.14*1.5= 13.71 and this would be your overtime hourly rate

Regular hourly rate (1x) : $9.14
Overtime hourly rate (1.5x): $13.71

Take your 8 hours of OT and multiply it by 13.71
13.71*8= 109.68

Add 365.6 and 109.68 to get a final answer of 475.28. The answer would've been C
