Mathematics

Answer:

18 hours of overtime done by Jane

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular weekly payment = 40 x $14.85 = $594

She earned $727.65.

The total overtime payment = $727.65 - $594 = $133.65

Overtime payment per hour is $14.85/2 = $7.425

$133.65 : $7.425 = 18hours overtime

But, is it me that understand the question in the wrong way or is the question itself is weird? Why would somebody work overtime if the wage is lower than the regular hour?

if there are 300 calories in 100 g of a certain food, how many calories are there in a 30 g portion of food

kap26 [50]

Answer:

90 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Calories : quantity of food

there are 300 calories in 100 g of a certain food

300 calories : 100 g food

how many calories are there in a 30 g portion of food

Let x = number of calories

x calories : 30 g food

Equate both ratios

300 calories : 100 g food = x calories : 30 g food

300/100 = x/30

300 * 30 = 100 * x

9000 = 100x

x = 9000/100

x = 90

x = number of calories = 90 calories

A candy store makes a 9-pound mixture of gummy candy, jelly beans, and hard candy. The cost of gummy candy is $2.00 per pound, j

Musya8 [376]

Let

x--------> the amount of gummy candy in pounds

y--------> the amount of jelly beans in pounds

z--------> the amount of hard candy in pounds

we know that

$x+y+z=9$ --------> equation $1$

$2x+3y+3z=23$ --------> equation $2$

$x=2y$ --------> equation $3$

Substitute equation $3$ in equation $1$ and equation $2$

$[2y]+y+z=9$ -----> $3y+z=9$ ------> equation $4$

$2[2y]+3y+3z=23$ -----> $7y+3z=23$ ------> equation $5$

using a graphing tool ------> Solve the system of equations

see the attached figure

the solution is the point $(3,2)$

$z=3\ pounds\\y=2\ pounds$

<u>Find the value of x</u>

$x=2y$

$x=2*2=4\ pounds$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the amount of gummy candy is $4\ pounds$

the amount of jelly beans is $2\ pounds$

the amount of hard candy is $3\ pounds$

B. $\{y|y \in \mathbb{R}, y \neq -4, -3\}$

<h3>What is the range of a function?</h3>

The range of a function is the set that contains all possible output values for the function. In a graph, it is the values of y.

In this graph, y assumes all values except y = -3 and y = -4, hence the range is given by:

B. $\{y|y \in \mathbb{R}, y \neq -4, -3\}$
