Let the number be x.
2x-3=55
2x=55-3
2x=52
x=52/2
x=26
Answer:
Vertical compression
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the transformation, compare the function to the parent function and check to see if there is a horizontal or vertical shift, reflection about the x-axis or y-axis, and if there is a vertical stretch.
Answer: $88.00 per week
Step-by-step explanation: 10% of 22 is 2.2. 22 + 2.2 = 24.20 per hour
Multiply 24.20x40hours = 968.00
Multiply 22.00x40 hours =880.00
Subtract 968-880=88.00 his new weekly pay minus his old weekly pay
Answer:
82 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between consecutive even integers is 2, thus
let the legs be n and n + 2
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
n² + (n + 2)² = 58² ← expand and simplify left side
n² + n² + 4n + 4 = 3364 ( subtract 3364 from both sides )
2n² + 4n - 3360 = 0 ( divide all terms by 2 )
n² + 2n - 1680 = 0 ← in standard form
(n + 42)(n - 40) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for n
n + 42 = 0 ⇒ n = - 42
n - 40 = 0 ⇒ n = 40
But n > 0 ⇒ n = 40
and n + 2 = 40 + 2 = 42
Thus sum of legs = 40 + 42 = 82 inches
let the amount of money earned by Prudie be p
since she earns the same amount of money each day after two days she has earned 2p
therefore the amount of money she needs to earn each day equals p
