Write and solve an equation:
Total earnings = $782.75 = s(40 hrs) + 1.5*s*(7 hrs)
Then 782.75 = 40s + 10.5s = 50.5s
Dividing both sides by 50.5: s = 15.5. The attendant's regular hourly wage was $15.50.
The right answer is C)
Consistent and independent system of two linear equations is a system such that there is only one solution for the system, that is, the two straight lines cross at a point. So we can analyze each case and I have attached some graphs to provided you with examples. Those graphs aren't about the equations but it's about general cases:
A) Consistent and dependent. If we divide this given equation by 2 we get the same line. (See Figure 1)
B) Inconsistent. No solutions. (See Figure 2)
C) Consistent and Independent. (See Figure 3)
D) Consistent and dependent.
Answer: If the time is 3 1/2 years (most reasonable assumption)
Her initial deposit was $160
Step-by-step explanation: The basic formula for simple interest is
<em>i = prt i </em>is interest, P is principal (deposit) r is the percentage (converted to a decimal) and t is time, the number of years.
For this question, you have to rearrange the equation to solve for p.
So divide both sides by rt and you have
p = i/rt
Substitute the values given
p = 36.40/(0.065)(3.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
use Pythagoras theorem,
P(-1, 1)
G(2,1)
R(1,-3)
S(-2,-3)
