So 5 dollar is autpay
so total pay=(payperhour) times (hoursworked) +tip/autopay
total pay needed=75
autopay=5
pay per hour=10 dolllar per hour or 10
replace payperhour with 10
replace hoursworked with h
subsitute and solve
75=10 times h+5
subtract 5 from both sides
70=10 times h
divide both sides by 10
7=h

she needs to work at least 7 hours




a.
 inequality is she needs to make at least 75
at least is <u><</u>
so the inequality is
75<u><</u><u />10h+5 or
10h+5<u>></u>75


b. we solved the inequality above
answer is
hours<u>></u>7
at leas 7 hours

$10(7+x)=75$       she charges $10 an hour = $10
$10(7+5x)=75$     she needs $75 + $5 tip = 5t                10*7=70 + 5 = 75

she needs to babysit 7hours in all..

Here’s a graph of a linear function. Write the equation that describes that function. (Zoom in if blurry)
Maru [420]

Answer: y = x/2 + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where c = intercept

Slope, m = change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

Looking at the graph,

y2 = 6

y1 = 4

x2 = 6

x1 = 2

Slope,m = (6 - 4)/(6 - 2) = 2/4 = 1/2

To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 2, y = 4 and m= 1/2 into y = mx + c. It becomes

4 = 1/2 × 2 + c

4 = 1 + c

c = 4 - 1

c = 3

The equation becomes

y = x/2 + 3

A leaky faucet in kali's house drips water at a rate of 42 gallons per week. How many gallons does the faucet drip in three days
Ratling [72]

Amount of water that the faucet leaks in 1 week = 42 gallons

That means Amount of water that the faucet in Kali's house leaks in                 7 days = 42 gallons So The amount of water that the faucet in Kali's house leaks in 1 day = (42/7) gallons  = 6 gallons Then The amount of water that the faucet in Kali's house leaks in 3 days = 6 * 3 gallons = 18 gallons

So it can said from the above deduction that the amount of water leaked by the faucet in Kali's house is 18 gallons.

hope this help .-.
