4. Shelton earns an hourly wage at a grocery store. The following expression represents Shelton’s take home pay after taxes, social security, and his health care plan are deducted. Let x represent the number of hours Shelton worked.

10.25x − 0.21(10.25x)

a) Which term represents Shelton’s total pay before deduction?

b) Shelton wants to save $1,675 for a new laptop. If Shelton saves 25% of his take-home pay, how many hours will he need to work to meet his savings goal?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)  Shelton’s total pay before deduction: 10.25x

b)  To meet savings goal he'll have to work 827.415869 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take-home pay:

  10.25x − 0.21(10.25x)

  10.25x − 2.1525x

  8.0975x

Save 25% for new laptop:

  .25(8.0975x) = 1675

     2.024375x = 1675

     x = 827.415869 hours

Find the values of C and D​

Answers

First you can find D since the rest of the 180° on the bottom has 132° already, so 180–132=48. So, 48–12=4d
36=4d
9=d
So, you have 42° (on the opposite side), 62°, and 48°c making up 155. So, 180–155=25. And to find c, add 15.
25+15=40
40÷20=2
So, c=2

c=2
d=9

The length of a rectangular table is represented by the function L(x) = 4x. The width of the table is represented by the function W(x) = 3x2 − 5x + 6. What is the area of the table in terms of x? (1 point)
(L • W)(x) = 7x3 − x2 + 10x
(L • W)(x) = 12x2 − 20x + 24
(L • W)(x) = 12x3 + 20x2 + 24x
(L • W)(x) = 12x3 − 20x2 + 24x

Answers

Answer:

(L • W)(x) = 12x^3 − 20x^2 + 24x (the last option)

Step-by-step explanation:

It's very simple actually. To find an area of a rectangle, all we have to do is multiply its two sides. We are given the length and the width of the rectangle - its sides. All we have to do is simply multiply them:
Area = L(x) * W(x)
L(x) = 4x
W(x) = 3x^2 - 5x + 6
Therefore the area is equal to:
(4x) * (3x^2 - 5x + 6) =
= 4x * 3x^2 - 4x * 5x + 6 * 4x =
= 12x^3 - 20x^2 + 24x
And there's your answer, option D, or 4 or whatever you call the last one.

D. y=3/x+1

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  C.  2y = (2x-1)/4

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation is linear when the exponents of the variables are 1 and the sum of the exponents of the variables in any term is 1.

a) 3xy = 4 . . . . sum of exponents is 1+1=2

b) f(x) = 2/3(1 -x^2) . . . . exponent is 2

c) 2y = (2x -1)/4 . . . . all exponents are 1 (linear)

d) y = 3/(x+1)  ⇒  xy +y = 3 . . . . sum of exponents is 1+1 = 2

A recylcying center was offering cash for different types of recylcables. For each pound of copper they paid $1.48. For each pound of aluminum they paid $1.55. And for each pound of plasic they paid $0.30. Jesse took in 50 pounds of copper, 15 pounds of aluminum, and 10 pounds of plastic. How mush money was he paid for his recyclables?

Answers

Answer:

$100.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure this out we can write a really simple equation! to start we're going to identify our variables: in this case we'll make [tex]T[/tex] for total, [tex]c[/tex] for the amount of copper, [tex]a[/tex] for the amount of aluminum, and [tex]p[/tex] for the amount of plastic. We can then create this equation to represent the sum of the amount of material times the value. This equation will look like this: [tex]T=1.48c+1.55a +.30p[/tex]

Now that we have an equation written out, we can plug in the amount of each material to get [tex]T=1.48(50)+1.55(15)+.30(10)[/tex]. We can then simplify this by following PEDMAS and multiplying to get [tex]T=74+23.25+3[/tex] and then all we have left is to add to get [tex]T=100.25[/tex]

A conjecture and the paragraph proof used to prove the conjecture are shown.

GIVEN: ABCD is a parallelogram
DC bisects ∠BDE
PROVE: ∠1 ≅ ∠3

Drag an expression or phrase to each box to complete the proof.

Answers

Answer:

Please see below :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 2 is congruent to angle 3 by definition of angle bisector.

Angle 1 is congruent to angle 3 by the transitive property of congruence.

Please let me know if something's wrong!

The missing values are:

<2 = 1/2 ∠BDE by Angle Bisector Theorem.

<3 = 1/2 ∠BDE by the transitive property

It is given that ABCD is a parallelogram, so AB || DC by the definition of parallelogram.

So, <1 and <2 are corresponding angles.

Therefore, <1 ≅ <2 by the Corresponding Angles Theorem.

It is also given that DC bisects ∠BDE,

So <2 is half the measure of ∠BDE by the Angle Bisector Theorem. Therefore, <2 = 1/2 ∠BDE.

Therefore, <3 is also half the measure of ∠BDE by the Transitive Property. Thus, <3 = 1/2 ∠BDE.

Therefore, <1 ≅ <3 by the transitive property of congruence.

HOW DO I SOLVE THIS HELP

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=2\sqrt5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that 15 is the length of only part of the hypotenuse of the larger triangle.

The remaining part can be easily found by noticing that the red triangle is half an equilateral triangle of side x, so the missing part is x/2.

Now for a known theorem (easily proved with the fact that triangles AHC and ABC are similar) you can write the following equation containing x:

[tex]x^2 = \frac x2 ( \frac x2 +15) \rightarrowx^2 = \frac {x^2}4+15 \\\\3x^2=60 \rightarrow x^2 = 20 \\x=2\sqrt5[/tex]

(where we obviously took only the positive root since x is a lengtth measure.

An isosceles triangle has a perimeter of 28cm and sides of integer length.
How many different such triangles can be made?

Answers

Answer:

over 18716271717161626cm

To solve this question, we have to:

Understand the concept of an isosceles triangle.Understand the perimeter concept.Understand the constraint needed to represent a triangle.

Doing this, we get that: 6 different such triangles can be made.

Isosceles triangle:

In an isosceles triangle, two sides have the same measure. An example is given by the picture at the end of this answer.

Perimeter:  

The perimeter of a polygon, in this case a triangle, is the sum of all it's sides.

Constraint:

The sum of the lengths of the two smaller sides of a triangle has to be greater than the length of the greater side.

This triangle:

Perimeter of 28.Two sides of x.One side y

Thus, the perimeter is:

[tex]P = 2x + y = 28[/tex]

Now, for the values of x, we find if the values of y generate a triangle, respecting the constraint.

x = 1

[tex]2 + y = 28 \rigtharrow y = 26[/tex]

1 + 1 < 26, thus, the constraint is not respected.

x = 2

[tex]4 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 24[/tex]

2 + 2 < 24, thus, the constraint is not respected.

x = 3

[tex]6 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 22[/tex]

3 + 3 < 22, thus, the constraint is not respected.

x = 4

[tex]8 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 20[/tex]

4 + 4 < 20, thus, the constraint is not respected.

x = 5

[tex]10 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 18[/tex]

5 + 5 < 18, thus, the constraint is not respected.

x = 6

[tex]12 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 16[/tex]

6 + 6 < 16, thus, the constraint is not respected.

x = 7

[tex]14 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 14[/tex]

7 + 7 = 14, thus, the constraint is not respected.

x = 8

[tex]16 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 12[/tex]

8 + 8 > 12, thus, the constraint is respected, and this is the first possible triangle.

x = 9

[tex]18 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 10[/tex]

9 + 9 > 10, thus, the constraint is respected, and this is the second possible triangle.

x = 10

[tex]20 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 8[/tex]

8 + 10 > 10, the constraint is respected, and this is the third possible triangle.

x = 11

[tex]22 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 6[/tex]

11 + 6 > 11, the constraint is respected, and this is the fourth possible triangle.

x = 12

[tex]24 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 4[/tex]

4 + 12 > 12, the constraint is respected, and this is the fifth possible triangle.

x = 13

[tex]26 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 2[/tex]

13 + 2 > 13, the constraint is respected, and this is the sixth possible triangle.

x = 14

[tex]28 + y = 28 \rightarrow y = 0[/tex]

Cannot have a triangle with a side of 0, so this is not possible.

After the tests, we have that 6 different such triangles can be made.
