Bill receives a monthly stipend of $800. He also works at a bookstore making $8 an hour. He wants a monthly income of $1,200. How many hours does he need to work each month?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

150 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Bill receives $800 as monthly stipend. But after this statement, it says Bill also works at a bookstore. So, it should mean that Bill does not receive $800 from the bookstore. He receives $800 from another job because of the word "also" which is mentioned in the second statement.

If the question is, to find out the number of hours Bill has to work each month if he assumes his monthly income to be $1,200 then 1200/8 = 150

But if the question is trying to mean that Bill receives $800 as a monthly stipend from the bookstore then this answer is wrong.

Then, we would have to calculate the difference.

$1200 - $800 = $420

Time = $420/8 = 50 hours.

Everything depends on the question. The question however needs some explanation, because this question is not written in a clear way.

Each exterior angle of a regular polygon is 24º.
How many sides does the polygon have?​

Answers

Answer: 360 / 24 = 15

Step-by-step explanation :

Since the sum of the exterior angles is always 360 degrees, if you divide 360 degrees by 24 degrees you get 15 which is the number of equal exterior angles and therefore 15 vertices and sides to the polygon.

15 sides

The polygon has 15 sides

360/24=15

5. Which of the following linear functions has a graph which passes through points (−5,−2) and (−3,0)?

options:

B. f(x) = x + 3
C. f(x) = –x + 3
D. f(x) = –x – 3

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = x + 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points (−5,−2) and (−3,0)

Required

Find a linear function that passes through the given points

The question implies that we solve for the equation for the line;

First, the slope of the line must be calculated;

This is calculated as thus:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Where [tex](x_1,y_1) = (-5,-2)\ and\ (x_2,y_2) = (-3,0)[/tex]

So, [tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex] becomes

[tex]m = \frac{0 - (-2)}{-3 - (-5)}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{0 + 2}{-3 + 5}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 1[/tex]

The equation of the line can then be calculated using any of the given points;

Using

[tex]m = \frac{y - y_1}{x - x_1}[/tex]

[tex]Where\ (x_1,y_1) = (-5,-2)\ and\ m =1[/tex]

We have

[tex]1 = \frac{y-(-2)}{x-(-5)}[/tex]

[tex]1 = \frac{y+2}{x+5}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by x + 5

[tex](x+5)*1 = \frac{y+2}{x+5} * (x+5)[/tex]

[tex]x + 5 = y + 2[/tex]

Subtract 2 from both sides

[tex]x + 5 - 2 = y + 2 - 2[/tex]

[tex]x + 3 = y[/tex]

[tex]y = x + 3[/tex]

Replace y with f(x)

[tex]f(x) = x + 3[/tex]

A 3-gallon container of window cleaner costs $15.84. What is the price per quart?
*Hint: 1 gallon = 4 quarts*

HURRY DUE SOON PLEASE AND THANK YOU :)

Answers

Answer:

1.32

Step-by-step explanation:

3 gallon = 1

12 quarts = 4

12 quarts =1

$15.84=  1.32

Answer:

$1.32 per quart

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the price per quart, we must divide the price by the number of quarts.

price / quarts

We are told that a 3 gallon container costs $15.84. First, we must find out how many quarts are in 3 gallons.

We know that 1 gallon is equal to 4 quarts.

Let’s set up a proportion.

quarts/ gallons = quarts/ gallons

4 quarts /1 gallon = x quarts/ 3 gallons

4/1= x/3

Multiply both sides by 3

3*4/1= x/3*3

3*4/1=x

3*4=x

12=x

There are 12 quarts in 3 gallons.

Now we know how many quarts are in 3 gallons. We can find the price per quart.

price / quarts

It costs $15.84 for 12 quarts.

$15.84/12 quarts

Divide 15.84 by 12

$1.32 / quart

It costs $1.32 per quart of window cleaner.

2n - 1 +2n - 2 = 4n - 3.

Finally, we do it a last time, we add 4n - 3 - 1 points and we get 4n - 3 + 4n - 4 points = 8n - 7  and it must be 65.

So, 8n -7 = 65 <=> 8n = 65+7=72  <=> n = 72/8=9

The sum of three numbers is 16. The sum of twice the first​ number, 5 times the second​ number, and 6 times the third number is 85. The difference between 4 times the first number and the second number is negative 3. Find the three numbers.

Answers

Answer:

            1, 7, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

x, y, z   -  numbers to find

The difference between 4 times the first number and the second number is negative 3:

4x - y = -3

  - y = -3 - 4x

    y = 3 + 4x

The sum of three numbers is 16:

x + y + z = 16

x + 4x + 3 + z = 16

 5x + z = 13

  z = 13 - 5x

The sum of twice the first​ number, 5 times the second​ number, and 6 times the third number is 85:

2x + 5y + 6z = 85

2x + 5(3 + 4x) + 6(13-5x) = 85

2x + 15 + 20x + 78 - 30x = 85

      -8x + 93 = 85

        -8x = -8

          x = 1

y = 3 + 4•1 = 7

z = 13 - 5•1 = 8

Veryfying:

1 + 7 + 8 = 16

2•1 + 5•7 + 6•8 = 2 + 35 + 48 = 85

Answer:

f(x) = -5x - 4

let f(x)= y

Answer:

1. 88 degrees

2. x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

In a hexagon, all of the interior angles must add up to 720 degrees. Therefore:

x+125+120+95+120+172=720

x=88

2.

Since opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal:

2x=x+8

x=3x-16

Let's go with the first equation.

2x=x+8

Subtract x from both sides:

x=8

You can plug this into the second equation to ensure it works:

3(8)-16=8

8=8

Hope this helps!

Answer:

1. 88

2. 48

Step-by-step explanation:

-22/3 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x-4) /(x+4) = 10

Multiply each side by (x+4)

(4x-4) /(x+4) * (x+4) = 10 * (x+4)

(4x-4) = 10 * (x+4)

Distribute

4x-4 = 10x+40

Subtract 4x from each side

4x-4-4x = 10-4x+40

-4 = 6x+40

subtract 40 from each side

-4 -40 = 6x+40-40

-44 = 6x

Divide each side by 6

-44/6 = -6x/6

-22/3 =x

Answer:

x = -22/3

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 4 / x + 4 = 10

=> 4x - 4 = 10(x + 4)

=> 4x - 4 = 10x + 40

=> 4x - 10x = 40 + 4

=> -6x = 44

=> x = -44/6

=> x = -22/3
