Desmond spends $800 per month on fixed expenses. Desmond earns $10,00 per hour,
How many hours does Desmond need to work each month to spend 50% of his/her income
on fixed expenses?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  160 hours

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

Explanation:

He earns $10.00 an hour. Let x be the number of hours worked in a month. So 10x represents how much he earns after working x hours.

If he spends $800 per month on fixed expenses, and wants this to be 50% of his total earnings, then this must mean that the other 50% is for other things (eg: spending on a vacation or putting it to savings). So his goal is to earn 800+800 = 1600 dollars per month.

Set 10x equal to this and solve for x

10x = 1600

x = 1600/10

x = 160

He needs to work 160 hours a month.

-------------------------------

Extra info:

Divide 160 over 4 (the approximate number of weeks in a month) and we see that he'll need to work 160/4 = 40 hours a week

If he only works Monday through Friday, that's 5 days of the week. So he'll put in 40/5 = 8 hours per day.

So his goal of working 160 hours per month is reasonable. Keep in mind that this doesn't include factors like him missing time from work due to being sick (unless he has paid sick leave).

Kirk is getting a raise of 5% due to inflation. His normal salary is $56,000 per year. Which of the following calculations gives Kirk's new salary, in dollars? A. 56,000 +5 B. 56,000 + 56,000(0.05) C. 56,000 + 56,000(0.50) D. 56,000 + 56,000(5) E. 56,000(.05)

Answers

Answer:

The answer is B. 56,000 + 56,000(0.05) because 5% or expressed in decimals 0.05 multiplied by the quantity 56,000 gives us 5% of Kirk's normal salary and added to his normal salary will give us his new salary.

(His new salary is 58,800 and 5% of his normal salary is 2,800)

10/27=a/135
what is the answer for this equation?

Answers

Answer:

So we have this equation:

10/27 =  a/135

What we can do is multiply  both sides by 27 and 135:

10*135 = a * 27

1350 = 27a

a = 1350/27. = 50.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (6,1) and is perpendicular to the line 2x+3y=18?

Answers

Answer

y = 3/2x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you should do is change the equation into slope intercept form. Subtract 2x from both sides to get: 3y = -2x + 18. Divide all parts of the equation by 3 to get your equation in slope intercept: y = -2/3x + 6. One thing you should know when finding the slope of a perpendicular line is that it is the opposite reciprocal. So, the slope is going to be 3/2. This is your current equation: y = 3/2x + b. Plug in the point to the equation, it should look like this: 1 = 3/2(6) + b. Multiply 3/2 by 6 to get 9. This is what it should look like: 1 = 9 + b. Then, subtract 9 from both sides of the equation to get your y-intercept of -8. Go back to your other equation and plug in -8 for b. This is your final equation: y = 3/2x -8.

4. Gabby makes banana bread at her bakery every Monday and Wednesday. Her
banana bread calls for the ratio of ingredients shown

80 tablespoons of butter for every 32 bananas

Answers

Answer:

Top row: 3 cups, 30 tablespoons, 12 bananas

Second row: 7 cups, 70 tbs, 28 bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is 5 (sugar) : 50 (butter)...

You can make the unit rate: 1 cup of sugar: 10 tbs of butter

Since the other ratio is 80 tbs : 32 bananas...

1 tbs : .4 bananas

So...

3 cups : 30 tbs

30 tbs : 12 bananas

28 bananas : 70 tbs

70 tbs :  7 cups

7i times 4i is 28i^2

7i times 3j is 21ij

-4j times 4i is -16ij

-4j times 3j is -12j^2

In equation it looks like this:

given that:

n = 60 (because five years is 60 months)

c = (n * $227.50) - m

HELP! Please answer fast How many terms are in the geometric series 0.4 + 1.2 + 3.6 + ... + 7,873.2?

Answers

Answer:

10 terms. I think you should check the explanation :)

Step-by-step explanation:

0.4 + 1.2 + 3.6 + ... + 7,873.2?

So I figured that you have to multiply the terms by three to get the next term.

0.4 * 3 = 1.2

1.2 * 3 = 3.6

But, I know it will takes us a really long time to get to 7,873.2, so what I will do is jump 3 sequences.

So if I multiply by 3 to get the next term, I'll multiply by 9 to get the next two terms because 3 * 3 is 9.

So to jump three times, I will multiply by 27 to get the next three terms because 3 * 3 * 3 is 27.

0.4 + 1.2 + 3.6 + ...

3.6 * 27 = 97.2

0.4 + 1.2 + 3.6 + ..., ..., 97.2, ...

97.2 * 27 = 2624.4

0.4 + 1.2 + 3.6 + ..., ..., 97.2, ..., ..., 2624.4, ...

Since we are getting close, I'm going to go back to multiply by 3.

2624.3 * 3 = 7873.2

0.4 + 1.2 + 3.6 + ..., ..., 97.2, ..., ..., 2624.4, 7873.2

Now that we have reached 7873.2, we will now count the terms (count the sets of three dots as terms too).

The art club is designing a rectangular mural for the school hallway. Three

fourth vertex and graph the rectangle on the coordinate plane below.
Fourth vertex:

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates are (50, 103)

Step-by-step explanation:

The three hallways are AB, BC, CD.

The co-ordinate of D is (50, 75).

The school's flagpole is 28 meters right of the point D.

Hence the y-coordinate for the flagpole will be same as D, that is 75.

The x-coordinate will be (28 + 75) = 103.

The location of the school's flagpole will be represented by (50, 103)

The 4th vertex of the rectangle is given by D ( 4 , -1 ) and the graph is plotted

What is the Area of a Rectangle?

The area of the rectangle is given by the product of the length of the rectangle and the width of the rectangle

Area of Rectangle = Length x Width

Given data ,

Let the area of the rectangle be represented as S

Let the rectangle be represented as ABCD

The coordinates of A = A ( -1 , -1 )

The coordinates of B + B ( -1 , 1 )

The coordinates of C = C ( 4 , 1 )

So , the length of the rectangle = 4 units

The width of the rectangle = 2 units

So , the area of the rectangle S = 4 x 2 = 8 units

And , the 4th vertex of rectangle D = D ( 4 , -1 )

Hence , the coordinate D of rectangle is D ( 4 , -1 )
