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).

An empty rectangular tank measures 60 cm by 50 cm by 56 cm. It is being filled with water flowing from a tap at a rate of 8 liters per minute. How long will it take to fill up the tank? (1 liter = 1000 cm3)

Answers

Answer:

21 min

Step-by-step explanation:

V = lwh

V = 60(50)(56) = 168000 cu. cm

8 liters = 8000 cu cm

168000/8000 = 21 min.

Peter and Myra are on their school's activity planning committee. They are polling each
homeroom class to find how many students are in after-school clubs. In Peter's class, 9 out of
the 20 students are in clubs. In Myra's class, 12 out of the 24 students are in clubs. Do the
two classes have the same ratio of students in clubs to total students?
yes
No

Answers

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: because 12 out of 24 is 1/2 while 9/20 is a bit off of one half therefore no

No cause if you simplify 12/24 it’s 1/2 and 9/20 can’t be simplified (not the same ratio)

Station A and Station B are 120 miles apart. A train traveling from station A to station B travels exactly 1/3 of the distance when it is held up and stops for 16 minutes. When the train continues its journey, the engineer increases its average speed by 15 mph so that the train will arrive at station B on schedule. Find the average speed of the train before it stopped for 16 minutes.

Answers

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

60

The average speed of the train was 80mph.

What is equation?

An equation is a  mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Here, Given that, Station A and Station B are 120 miles apart.

And, a train traveling from station A to station B travels exactly 1/3 of the distance when it is held up and stops for 16 minutes.

Let, its average speed was x mph.

Then, Total time if didn't stop = 120/x h

Now, before stop it took time =( 1/3×120)/x h =40/x h

After stop it took time = 80/(x+15) h

i.e. 40/x +16/60+ 80/(x+15) = 120/x

⇒80/(x+15)+8/30= 80/x

⇒80(1/x-1/(x+15))=8/30

⇒10×(15/x^2+15x)=1/30

⇒x^2+15x=10×15×30

⇒x^2+15x-450=0

⇒x^2+75x-60x-450=0

⇒(x+75)(x-60)=0

⇒x=60 or, x= -75

Hence. the required speed was 60mph.

What is geometric transformation?

It is defined as the change in coordinates and the shape of the geometrical body. It is also referred to as a two-dimensional transformation. In the geometric transformation, changes in the geometry can be possible by rotation, translation, reflection, and glide translation.

The coordinates of the points in the graph are S(-9,-10) , T(-1,-110) , U(-1,-7) , V(-9,-7)

We have to graph the image of the rectangle STUV after a reflection over the line y= –x

The points obtained after graphing ate,

Answer:  Choice B) 1 & 3/4

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

Work Shown:

Convert each fraction or mixed number into its equivalent decimal form. Use a calculator or long division.

1 & 3/5 = 1 + 3/5 = 1+0.6 = 1.68/5 = 1.61 & 3/4 = 1 + 3/4 = 1 + 0.75 = 1.751 & 3/8 = 1 + 3/8 = 1 + 0.375 = 1.375

The decimal value 1.75 is larger than 1.6, so this shows that 1 & 3/4 is larger than 1 & 3/5

4. Gabby makes banana bread at her bakery every Monday and Wednesday. Her

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

Heyo! I need some help, please. What is the x coordinate if (x, 17) is on a line that passes through the points (1, 2) and (-1, -8) on a standard (x, y) coordinate plane?

Answers

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The line with points (1,2) and (-1,-8). Work out its equation.

y = mx + b

The slope is:

m = (-8 - 2)/(-1 - 1) = -10/-2 = 5

To find the y intercept, substitute x and y-xoordinates of point (1,2):

2 = 5(1) + b b = 2 - 5b = -3

The line is:

y = 5x - 3

Point (x, 17), substitute y-coordinate and solve for x

17 = 5x - 35x = 17 + 35x = 20x = 20/5x = 4

Given square ABCD. Two isosceles triangles ABP and BCQ are constructed with bases AB and BC . Each of these triangles has vertex angle of 80°. Point P lies in the interior of the square, while point Q lies outside of the square. Find the angle measure between PQ and BC

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  85°

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the isosceles triangles PAB and QBC has interior base angles of ...

  (180° -80°)/2 = 50°

Then angle PBC is 90° -50° = 40°.

Segments PB and QB are the same length, so triangle PBQ is an isosceles right triangle. This means angle BPQ is 45°. Angle QEB is the sum of the remote interior angles of ∆BEP, so is 45° +40° = 85°.

The acute angle between PQ and BC is 85°.

A program was created to randomly choose customers at a shoe store to receive a discount. The program claims 15% of the receipts will get a discount in the long run. The manager of the shoe store is skeptical and believes the program's calculations are incorrect. She selects a random sample and finds that 12% received the discount. The confidence interval is 0.12 ± 0.05 with all conditions for inference met.


Part A: Using the given confidence interval, is it statistically evident that the program is not working? Explain.


Part B: Is it statistically evident from the confidence interval that the program creates the discount with a 0.15 probability? Explain.


Part C: Another random sample of receipts is taken. This sample is six times the size of the original. Twelve percent of the receipts in the second sample received the discount. What is the value of margin of error based on the second sample with the same confidence level as the original interval?


Part D: Using the margin of error from the second sample in part C, is the program working as planned? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

A: There is no statistical evidence that the program is not working as intended because 0.15 is between the range of 0.12 ± 0.05 = (0.07,0.17)

B: 0.15 is between the range of (0.07,0.17) so it is statistically probable.

C: margin of error=0.05/((6)^(1/2))=0.0204

D: No the program is not working as planned because 0.15 is not within the range of 0.12±0.0204=(0.0996,0.1404)

The fact that the government issues currency means that the currency will be accepted as money by all agents. 3. The fact that the currency is backed by the government means that it will never lose value and will remain a perfect unit of account. 4.
