Answer:

Bill: 8 years

Hoang: 13 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Hoang has been a nurse for H years and Bill has been a nurse for B years.

Hoang has been a nurse for 5 years longer than Bill. This means that B + 5 = H

Next, 3 years ago, she had been there twice as long.

(B-3) and (H-3) represent Bill and Hoang 3 years ago respectively.

(B-3) * 2 = (H-3)

We thus have two equations

B+5 = H

(B-3) * 2 = H-3

Substitute B+5 for H in the second equation

2*B - 6 = B+5-3

2B-6 = B+2

add 6 to both sides to put all the constants on one side

2B = B + 8

subtract B from both sides to isolate the variable

B = 8

H = B+5 = 13

Construct a linear equation for the linear data presented in the table
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

y = -7x

Explanation:

Take two points from table: (-4, 28), (-3, 21)

Find slope:

\sf slope: \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2- x_1} \ \  where \ (x_1 , \ y_1), ( x_2 , \ y_2) \ are \ points

\rightarrow \sf slope\ (m):   \dfrac{21-28}{-3-(-4)}  = -7

Now find equation:

\sf y - y_1 = m (x - x_1)

\rightarrow \sf y - 21 = -7(x - (-3))

\rightarrow \sf y  = -7(x +3) + 21

\rightarrow \sf y  = -7x -21 + 21

\rightarrow \sf y  = -7x

Part of a shape is drawn.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The points of the rotated shape are: (4, 1), (5, 3), (4, 4), (2, 1), (1, 3), (2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the part of the shape we can see and the symmetry, the missing points are:

(-2, -1)

(-1, -3)

(-2, -4)

Rotation 180° about the origin transforms the point (x, y) into (-x, -y). Applying this rule to our figure, we get:

(-4, -1) -> (4, 1)

(-5, -3) -> (5, 3)

(-4, -4) -> (4, 4)

(-2, -1) -> (2, 1)

(-1, -3) -> (1, 3)

(-2, -4) -> (2, 4)

Answer:

120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angles = (n-2)180°, where n is the number of sides.

This is a hexagon, so n=6.

Sum of angles = (6-2)180° = 720°

Each interior angle = 720°/6 = 120°

Which shapes can the composite figure be divided into to find the area​
icang [17]

Given:

Composite figure

To find:

The shapes in the composite figure.

Solution:

The image splitted into three shapes.

  • Draw a line from top vertex to bottom vertex.
  • We get one triangle.
  • Similarly, draw another line adjacent to the previous line.
  • We get another triangle and rectangle.

Therefore a composite figure divided into a rectangle and two triangles.
