Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 20 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours. Together they charged a total of
$1625. What was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates was $160 per hour?
Note that the ALEKS graphing calculator can be used to make computations easier.
oo

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The first mechanic charges $45/hour while the second mechanic charges $50/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

X = rate of first mechanic

Y = rate of second mechanic

X + Y = 95 --->   Y = 95 - X

20X +5Y = 1150

Substituting the first equation into the second,

20X + 5(95 - X) = 1150

20X +  475 - 5X = 1150

15X + 475 = 1150

15x = 1150 - 475

15x = 675

X = 675/15 = 45 --> y = 95 - 45 = 50

CHECK: Plugging these results into the second equation:

                 20*45 + 5*50 = 900 + 250 = 1150

YES! Success! It checks!

So the first mechanic charges $45/hour while the second mechanic charges $50/hr! :)

Write an equation for each translation of y = |x| .

A. y = | x | + 5.5

B. y = | x | – 5.5

C. y = | x – 5.5 |

D. y = | x + 5.5 |

Answers

Answer:

C. y = | x – 5.5 |

Step-by-step explanation:

y = f(x) + n - moves the graph n units up

y = f(x) - n - moves the graph n units down

y = f(x + n) - moves the graph n units to the left

y = f(x - n) - moves the graph n units to the right

5.5 units to the right

y = f(x - 5.5) = |x - 5.5|

Answer:

D. y = | x + 10.5 |

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

The parent function is .

Now, the parent function is shifted 10.5 units to the left.

Since, shift of a function f(x) by 'k' units to the left changes the function to f(x+k).

So, the new function is given by .

Answer: Choice D

Reflect over the y axis; dilate by a scale factor of 2.

==================================================

Explanation:

Let's focus on the bottom-most points of each rhombus. For rhombus A on the left, that point in question is (-3,1). For rhombus B, that corresponding lowest point is (6,2).

If we were to reflect rhombus A over the y axis, then (-3,1) would move to (3,1). Simply swap the sign of the x coordinate while keeping the y coordinate the same. Now compare (3,1) to (6,2). Notice that we can multiply each coordinate of (3,1) by the scale factor 2 so that we jump to (6,2)

[tex](3,1) \stackrel{\text{mult by 2}}{\longrightarrow} (6,2)[/tex]

This "multiply by 2" operation is done to each point of the reflected blue rhombus so that we end up with the green rhombus after all is said and done. Also, this trick of multiplying the coordinates by the scale factor only works if the center of dilation is the origin.

In short, we do two things:

reflect over the y axismultiply each coordinate, of each point, by the scale factor 2

which allows us to go from blue (rhombus A) to green (rhombus B)

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  1  and the Trailing Constant is  -12.

The factor(s) are:

The first term is,  x2  its coefficient is  1 .

The middle term is,  +8x  its coefficient is  8 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +12

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • 12 = 12

Step-2 : Find two factors of  12  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   8 .

     -12    +    -1    =    -13

     -6    +    -2    =    -8

     -4    +    -3    =    -7

     -3    +    -4    =    -7

     -2    +    -6    =    -8

     -1    +    -12    =    -13

     1    +    12    =    13

     2    +    6    =    8    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  2  and  6

                    x2 + 2x + 6x + 12

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   x • (x+2)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   6 • (x+2)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (x+6)  •  (x+2)

            Which is the desired factorization

Final result :

 (x + 6) • (x + 2) • (x - 1)

Question: adding unlike fractions

3/7 + 3/21

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

first, find a common denominator

3/7 = 9/21

3/21 stays the same.

then, add

9/21 + 3/21 = 12/21

and if possible, simplify

12 and 21 are both divisible by 3, so divide by 3.

12/3= 4, 21/3=7

so, 3/7 + 3/21 = 4/7

Answer:

4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction 3/21 can be simplified. The 3 divides 21 which 7, so the fraction can be written as 1 /7. Now, we just have:

3/7 + 1/7

We need to add the numerators to get one fraction:

2011 was 75, and then went down by 4% in 2012. How many robberies were there in
Springfield in 2012?

Answers

72 is answer

as it got down by 4% every year

in 2011 it was 75 means in the next year it will be 75-(75*4/100) that is equal to 72

The robbery rate in year 2012 was 72.

What is percentage?

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100.

Given that in a city that robbery rate was 75 in 2011 was 75, and then went down by 4% in 2012.

We need to find the robbery rate of the city in 2012.

So, here went down means it decreased by 4%,

That mean, now the robbery rate will be (100-4) = 96% of 75.

Therefore, the robbery rate in year 2012 was =

0.96 x 75 = 72

Hence the robbery rate in year 2012 was 72.
