Hector has $590 in his account. He earned $15 per hour for x hours. Jeremy has $545 in his account. He earned $20 per hour for x hours. They both worked the same number of hours and now have the same amount of money. What is the number of hours that each person worked? Write and solve an equation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

equation = 590 + 15x = 545 + 20x

No. of hours worked = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that both worked for same number of hours

and

Jeremy worked for for x hours

it meant that Hector also worked for x hours(it is also mentioned same in the problem)

now that we know the number of hours worked in form of x

lets find

total money in their account if they worked for x hours

___________________________________________

For Hector

Money in Hector's account = $590

Earning for Hector in 1 hour = $15

Earning for Hector in x hour = x*Earning for Hector in 1 hour = $15x

Total money in with Hector after x hours of work

 = Money in Hector's account + Earning for Hector in x hour = $590 + $15x

Similarly

For Jeremy

Money in Jeremys account = $545

Earning for Jeremy in 1 hour = $20

Earning for Jeremy in x hour = x*Earning for Jeremy in 1 hour = $20x

Total money in with Jeremy after x hours of work

 = Money in Jeremy's account + Earning for Jeremy in x hour = $545 + $20x

Given that they same amount of money

thus

$590 + $15x = $545 + $20x

$sign gets cancelled from both sides

590 + 15x = 545 + 20x  Thus, we got the required equation  

=> 590 - 545 = 20x - 15x

=> 45 = 5x

=> x = 45/5 = 9

Thus, both of them worked for 9 hours

Answers

Answer:

x = 109°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle x lies outside of line d, and is also positioned just on the side of line a that is opposite to the side of line a occupied by angle 109°.

Therefore, angle x and the angle measure of 109° are alternate exterior angles.

Alternate exterior angles are congruent.

Answer:

3*2^2*20/6 = p

3*4*20/6 = p

hope it help :)

Step-by-step explanation:

The safe load if the beam is turned on its side will be 240 pounds.

What is a load?

A burden or pressure source that is carried by someone or something. Construction loads are defined as the weights placed on an existing or temporary structure both during and after the construction process.

Given that the safe load for a horizontal beam supported at both ends varies jointly with the width and the square of its depth and inversely with the distance between the supports. If a 4 cm by 6 cm beam, 10 m long supports 5 kg when standing on the edge,

The load will be calculated by using the formula below:-

wd²c/l = p

(2 x( 1 ) ²c)/4 = 10

(2x 1c)/4 = 10

2c/4 = 10

c = 20

3 x ( 2 )²x ( 20/6 ) = p

3 x 4x ( 20/6 ) = p

p = 240 pounds

Therefore, the safe load if the beam is turned on its side will be 240 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation that is a function has unique x-values. A relation that is not a function has at least one x-value that is repeated. The y-values do not need to be unique in either case, except that a repeat of the same (x, y) pair does not disqualify a relation from being a function.

Part A
Joseph runs 2 miles on Monday. Each day after that, he runs the same 1 mile route every morning. His goal is to run at least 6 miles
by the end of the week. Which inequality represents the least number of days after Monday that Joseph needs to run to reach his goal?

Answers

Sine he runs 2 miles on Monday, we already have a +2.

Then, he runs by a constant rate of 1, which is the constant rate of change per day.

Let x represent the number of days he runs and y the total amount of miles he runs. Now, the equation is y = x + 2

However, he needs to run at least 6 miles. At least means greater than or equal to. The values for y can be greater than 6, or equal to 6.

y ≥ 6

y = x + 2

Now substitute x + 2 for y.

x + 2 ≥ 6

Subtract 2.

x ≥ 4

This is the inequality. He has to run for at least 4 days.

A deluxe bakery sells a cookie for $2.38, a brownie for $3.07 and a cake for $14.87. On Wednesday they sold 13 cookies, 4 brownies and 4 cakes. The cost in ingredients for each cookie is $1.7, for each brownie is $1.91 and for each cake is $5.83. How much profit did they make on Wednesday?

Answers

Answer:

$ 49.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price of cookie on Wednesday = 13 × 2.38 = $30.94

Selling price for brownie on Wednesday = 4 × 3.07 = $ 12.28

Selling price for cakes on Wednesday = 4 × 14.87 = $ 59.48

Cost price for cookie = 13 × 1.7 = $ 22.1

Cost price for brownie = 4 × 1.91 = $ 7.64

Cost price for cakes = 4 × 5.83 =$ 23.32

Total profit for Wednesday= Total selling price - total cost price

That is;

(30.94 + 12.28 + 59.48) - (22.1 + 7.64 +23.32) = $ 49.64

Penelope and the Suitors from Book II of The Odyssey by Homer "Telemachus, insolent braggart that you are, how dare you try to throw the blame upon us suitors? It is your mother's fault not ours, for she is a very artful woman. This three years past, and close on four, she had been driving us out of our minds, by encouraging each one of us, and sending him messages without meaning one word of what she says. And then there was that other trick she played us. She set up a great tambour frame in her room, and began to work on an enormous piece of fine needlework. 'Sweet hearts,' said she, 'Ulysses is indeed dead, still do not press me to marry again immediately, waitfor I would not have skill in needlework perish unrecordedtill I have completed a pall for the hero Laertes, to be in readiness against the time when death shall take him. He is very rich, and the women of the place will talk if he is laid out without a pall.' "This was what she said, and we assented; whereon we could see her working on her great web all day long, but at night she would unpick the stitches again by torchlight. She fooled us in this way for three years and we never found her out, but as time wore on and she was now in her fourth year, one of her maids who knew what she was doing told us, and we caught her in the act of undoing her work, so she had to finish it whether she would or no. The suitors, therefore, make you this answer, that both you and the Achaeans may understand'Send your mother away, and bid her marry the man of her own and of her father's choice'; for I do not know what will happen if she goes on plaguing us much longer with the airs she gives herself on the score of the accomplishments Minerva has taught her, and because she is so clever. We never yet heard of such a woman; we know all about Tyro, Alcmena, Mycene, and the famous women of old, but they were nothing to your mother any one of them. It was not fair of her to treat us in that way, and as long as she continues in the mind with which heaven has now endowed her, so long shall we go on eating up your estate; and I do not see why she should change, for she gets all the honour and glory, and it is you who pay for it, not she.
