Answer:

John and Pam are paid $8.5 for each hour worked. John's share of the money is $29.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the hourly salary. John worked for 3.5 hrs, and Pam for two. We can represent this using the equation:

3.5x + 2x = 46.75, where the coefficients equals the amount of hours.

Let's solve for x!

5.5x=46.75

x = 46.75/5.5 = 17/2 = 8.5

John and Pam are paid 8.5 dollars per each hour worked.

To figure out John's share of the money, we will multiply the wage by the hours he worked.

8.5 x 3.5 = 29.75

How does using a bar diagram help you in predicting the solution to ratio and rate problems?

jeka94

Bar graph display directly the varibales which are the rate and ratio of the numbers to visualize and display the results, these contrasting the different outcomes. On the contrary, histogram is used in grouped frequency parameters. Moreover, as little as the given five parameters or data set this will be ineffective and will result to a bar graph only and basically, the suited option is the aforementioned vertical graph to display the numbers. To expound on the definition of histogram it is used when the frequency is grouped. For example the data set of 1-5, 6-10, 11-15 and 16-20 this now can be used and applied to illustrate histogram because of the number and quantity of the given data.<span>

Estimate this product by rounding each number to one nonzero digit before multiplying: (2876)(513)(18) ASAP PLEASE

DerKrebs [107]

2876 Rounds To 3000
513 Rounds To 500
18 Rounds To 20
Then multiply:
3000x500x20= 30,000,000

spayn [35]

Answer:

8-inch pattern is fully printed 28 times.

12-inch pattern is fully printed 19 times.

Patterns start at the same place 9 times

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 19 feet is 228 inches.

2. 8-inch pattern is fully printed 28 times.

3. 12-inch pattern is fully printed 19 times.

4. 8-inch patterns starts at`0,8,16,24,32,40,48...

5. 12-inch pattern starts at 0,12,24,48...

6. As you see they start at the same place after 24 inches.

7. 228/24=9.5, => They start at the same place 9 times.
