Answer:
- $52
- this estimate is a little low
Explanation:
a) I might choose 6 1/2 hours and $8 per hour, so the estimated earnings would be ...
6(8) +(1/2)(8) = 52 dollars . . . . estimated earnings
These values are purposely chosen so that one is a little high and the other is a little low, hopefully producing a closer estimate than if both numbers were high (as 7 hours, $8, for example).

b) Using 800 instead of 790 means the pay estimate is about 1/80 = 1.25% high.
Using 6 1/2 instead of 6 3/4 means the hours estimate is about 1/27 ≈ 3.7% low.
So, we expect the product of these values to be slightly low, perhaps by about 2.5%.

<em>Comment on estimating</em>
If you can estimate the error in the estimate with some reasonable accuracy, you can use that to adjust the estimate to a pretty close value.
X=-5 First u have to distribute the 3 in the parentheses. Second multiple both sides of the equation by 4. Third you move the variable to the left side. Fourth collect like terms. Fifth move the negative from the left side to the right side.
Answer:
(1) d+q=23 (the total number of coins is 23)
(2) 10d+25q = 440 (the total value of the coins, at 10 cents for each dime and 25 cents for each quarter, is 440 cents)
there are 14 quarters and 9 dimes

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7) The tangent angles are 90° each.
The angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360°, so ? = 360°-90°-90°-73° = 107°.
8) Solve this the same way as question 7). ? = 360°-90°-90°-57° = 123°.
Questions 9) and 10) are cut off, so I assume you don't need to know those.
