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

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

AB =24

Step-by-step explanation:

So, since all the sides are equal, you can just take two of the sides and set em equal to each other to find x and then, solve for AB

4x+8 =6x

8= 6x-4x

8=2x

8/2 =x

x= 4

Now, find AB, which is 4x+8

4(4) + 8

16+8 = 24

Hope this helps!

The probability that a radish seed will germinate is 0.7. A gardener plants seeds in batches of 12. Find the mean for the number
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

mean = 8.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we have the mean as np

This is the product of the number of items per batch by the probability that each of the products will germinate

Mathematically, we have this as:

0.7 * 12 = 8.4

In a movie theater, the number of seats in a row is 8 greater than the total number of rows. How many rows are in the movie thea
Harman [31]

Answer:

26 rows

Step-by-step explanation:

this is like a rectangle length×width situation.

seats per row = s

number of rows = r

s × r = 884

s = r + 8

so, we can use e.g. the second equation in the first :

(r + 8) × r = 884

r² + 8r = 884

r² + 8r - 884 = 0

the general solution to such a quadratic equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

x = r

a = 1

b = 8

c = -884

r = (-8 ± sqrt(8² - 4×1×-884))/(2×1) =

= (-8 ± sqrt(64 + 3536))/2 = (-8 ± sqrt(3600))/2 =

= (-8 ± 60)/2 = -4 ± 30

r1 = -4 + 30 = 26

r2 = -4 - 30 = -34

a negative number did not make any sense for the number of rows, so r = 26 is our answer.

12 = 0.4x, where x is total number of cards

/0.4 /0.4

30 = x

30 cards
