What is the value of a in the equation 3a+b=54 , when b=9 ?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Instead of x substitute (x + 4) to f(x) = x² - 12

f(x + 4) = (x + 4)² - 12        use (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

f(x + 4) = x² + 2(x)(4) + 4² - 12

f(x + 4) = x² + 8x + 16 - 12

f(x + 4) = x² + 8x + 4

Answer:

The employers pay their employees based on hourly rates, commission and salary.

Step-by-step explanation:

The employees get their pay based on hourly rates that can range from a minimum hourly rate of say $12 per hour to any maximum figure like $40 per hour.

The final salary is based on the numbers of hours worked multiplied by the hourly rate.

Secondly, the pays are also commission based. That is your base salary plus the commission.

The salary is typical in management positions. These are not hourly based but a lump sum pay.

So, the correct answers are : commission, hourly pay and salary.

Answer:

commission

hourly pay

The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit, followed by the value of the necessary number of units.

For example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.

12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.

As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.

This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees.

Given:

Brett is paid $18.95 per hour.

For 0 to 40 hours a week,

For any hours over 40, Brett makes

= 1.5 ($18.95)

= $28.425/hour

In Week 1:  40 hours x $18.95/hour = $758

2 hours x $28.425/hour = 56.85

Week 2:  36 hours x $18.95/hour = 682.2

Final answer:

Brett's gross pay for working 42 hours one week and 36 hours the next, for a total of 78 hours, is $1495.05, which includes 2 hours of overtime pay.

Explanation:

Brett is paid an hourly wage of $18.95, with overtime paid at 1.5 times his regular rate. To calculate Brett's gross pay for the two-week pay period where he worked 42 hours one week and 36 hours the next week, we have to account for the fact that he worked 2 hours of overtime in the first week (since he worked more than 40 hours).

Step-by-Step Calculation

Brett's gross pay for the 78 hours worked would be $1495.05.

6 adults and 11 children.

In order to solve this problem we going to use linear equations.

A group of 17 people went to the concert. There are adults and children in that group x + y = 17 where x are adults and y are children. That group pay $57.50 for tickets, if tickets cost $5.00 for adults and $2.50 for children, then 5.00x + 2.50y = 57.50.

x + y = 17 ---------->  y = 17 - x

Substituting the value of y in the equation 5.00x + 2.50y = 57.50:

5.00x + 2.50(17 - x) = 57.50 solving

x = 6

Substituting x = 6 in the equation x + y = 17

6 + y = 17 solving

y = 11

From a group of 17 people who went to the concert 6 are adults and 11 are children.

Answer:

49

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -x² - 10x + 24

For a parabola ax² + bx + c, the vertex is at x = -b/(2a).

In this case, a = -1 and b = -10.  So:

x = -(-10) / (2 * -1)

x = -5

The y coordinate is:

y = -(-5)² - 10(-5) + 24

y = -25 + 50 + 24

y = 49

Answer:

Base of each triangular face = 4 inches

Height of each triangular face = 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of each side of the square base is the base of each isosceles triangle forming the pyramid.

We know from our problem that the ratio of the height of each triangle to its base is 3:2, so [tex]\frac{height}{base} =\frac{3}{2}[/tex]. We also know that the base is a square with sides 4 inches long, since the bade of the square is the base of the isosceles triangle, [tex]base=4[/tex].

Replacing the value of the base in our proportion:

[tex]\frac{height}{base} =\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{height}{4} =\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 4

[tex]\frac{height}{4}*4 =\frac{3}{2}*4[/tex]

[tex]height=\frac{3*4}{2}[/tex]

[tex]height=\frac{12}{2}[/tex]

[tex]height=6[/tex]

We can conclude that he base of each isosceles triangle is 4 inches and its height is 6 inches.

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a figure it dilated by scale factor k, then the image and preimage are similar figures and their corresponding sides are proportional.

In triangle I, the base of the triangle is 1 unit and length of the perpendicular is 1 units.

In triangle II, the base of the triangle is 1 unit and length of the perpendicular is 2 units.

[tex]\frac{1}{1}\neq \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The corresponding sides are not proportional. It means both triangles are not similar. So, there is no dilation transforming triangle I into triangle II.

Therefore the correct option is 4.

Answer:

There is no dilation transforming triangle I into triangle II.

The approximate measure of the angle formed by the top of the slide and the vertical support is approximately 21.8 degrees.

In trigonometry, the tangent function can help us find the angle in a right-angled triangle. The tangent of an angle in a right triangle is defined as the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the adjacent side. In this case, the side opposite the angle is the height of the slide (20 feet), and the adjacent side is the length of the slide (50 feet).

Now, we can use the tangent function to find the angle (θ):

tan(θ) = Opposite / Adjacent

tan(θ) = 20 feet / 50 feet

tan(θ) = 0.4

To find the value of θ, we can take the inverse tangent (also known as arctan or tan⁻¹) of 0.4:

θ ≈ arctan(0.4) ≈ 21.8 degrees

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of the sum of the first five positive integers:

(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5)² = 15² = 225

The sum of the first positive perfect square:

1² + 2² + 3² + 4² + 5² = 1 + 4 + 9 + 16 + 25 = 55

225 - 55 = 200

The positive difference between the square of the sum of the first five positive integers and the sum of the first five positive perfect squares is 170. This is obtained by taking the sum of first five numbers, squaring the sum and subtracting the sum of first five perfect squares.

The sum of first five positive integers = 1+2+3+4+5 = 15

Square of the sum of the first five positive integers = 15² = 225

The sum of the first five positive perfect squares =1²+2²+3²+4²+5²

                                                                                 =1+4+9+16+25

                                                                                 =55

The positive differenece = 225-55=170

Hence the positive difference between the square of the sum of the first five positive integers and the sum of the first five positive perfect squares is 170.

Answer:

s = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for s:

8 s - 10 = 34 - 3 s

Add 3 s to both sides:

8 s + 3 s - 10 = (3 s - 3 s) + 34

3 s - 3 s = 0:

8 s + 3 s - 10 = 34

8 s + 3 s = 11 s:

11 s - 10 = 34

Add 10 to both sides:

11 s + (10 - 10) = 10 + 34

10 - 10 = 0:

11 s = 34 + 10

34 + 10 = 44:

11 s = 44

Divide both sides of 11 s = 44 by 11:

(11 s)/11 = 44/11

11/11 = 1:

Answer: $0.12 per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

divide $360.00 by 3, then divide it by 1000, because 1000 lbs is 1 ton

Final answer:

To calculate the price per pound of dirt, divide the total cost of $360.00 by the total weight of 6000 pounds, resulting in a cost of $0.06 per pound.

Explanation:

The student asked how much it would cost per pound if 3 tons of dirt cost $360.00. First, it's essential to know how many pounds are in a ton. There are 2000 pounds in one ton. So for 3 tons, there would be 6000 pounds (3 tons x 2000 pounds/ton).

Next, to find the price per pound, you would divide the total cost by the total weight in pounds. That's $360.00 divided by 6000 pounds, which equals $0.06 per pound.

Therefore, the price per pound of dirt is $0.06.

Step-by-step explanation:

cross multiply

4*4x=1*3+6

16x=9

x=9/16

The flow rate is 2 quarts per minute. There are 4 quarts in a US gallon, so 2 quarts divide 4 quarts per US gallon = 0.5 gallons per minute There are 60 seconds in a minute, so the flow rate is 0.5 gallons per minute divide 60 seconds per minute = 0.0083 gallons per second

Converting 2 quarts per minute to gallons per second requires the use of two conversion factors. First, quarts are converted to gallons by dividing by 4. Then, minutes are converted to seconds by dividing by 60. After performing these steps, it is found that 2 quarts per minute is approximately equal to 0.00833 gallons per second.

The student is asking to convert a flow rate from quarts per minute to gallons per second. There are a few fundamental conversions you need to use to find the answer. Firstly, remember that 1 gallon (gal) is equivalent to 4 quarts (qt). So, to convert the quarts to gallons, divide the quarts by 4. Secondly, there are 60 seconds in a minute; thus, you have to convert the minutes to seconds by dividing by 60.

Let's go step-by-step:

Therefore, 2 quarts per minute is approximately equal to 0.00833 gallons per second.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given:

√2x+3 - √x+1  = 1

First of all isolate the square root of the left hand side:

√2x+3 = √x+1 +1

Now take square on both sides.

(√2x+3)^2 = (√x+1 +1)^2

Open the R.H.S by squaring formula.

∴(a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2

2x+3 = (√x+1)^2 + 2(√x+1)(1)+(1)^2

2x+3 = x+1 +2√x+1 +1

2x+3 = x+2 +2√x+1

Combine the like terms:

2x-x+3-2 = 2√x+1

x+1 = 2√x+1

Take square on both sides

(x+1)^2 = (2√x+1)^2

x²+2x+1 = 4x+4

x²+2x-4x+1-4 = 0

x²-2x-3 = 0

Now solve the quadratic equation:

a = 1 , b= -2 , c = -3

x = -b+/-√b²-4ac/2a

x = -(-2)+/-√(-2)² - 4(1)(-3) / 2(1)

x = 2 +/- √4+12 / 2

x = 2+/- √16/2

x = 2+/- 4 /2

x = 2+4/2     , x = 2-4/2

x = 6/2      , x = -2/2

x = 3      , x = -1

A system of equations can be classified by its number of solutions.

You can observe that the slopes of both equations are the same but the y-intercepts are different, then these lines are parallel, which means that they do not intersect.

By definition, when to lines are parallel there is NO SOLUTION and the system is classified as "Inconsistent".
