Suppose Lauren is working two jobs to help pay for college. One job pays more per hour than the other. Since her boss at the higher-paying job wouldn't give her as many hours as she wanted, she picked up the second job to generate more income. With her course load, 20 hours a week of work is all she can manage, but she wants to make as much money as possible in those 20 hours. Her goal is to get twice as many hours a week at the higher-paying job than at the lower-paying one. How many hours should she work at each job

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She will work 6.67 hours at the low paying job and 13.33 hours at the high paying job

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x = Low\ pay\ job[/tex]

[tex]y = high\ pay\ job[/tex]

From the question, we have that:

She can only work for 20 hours.

This implies that:

[tex]x + y= 20[/tex]

To work 2ce as many hours at the high paying job than the low paying job; implies that:

[tex]y = 2x[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]x + y= 20[/tex]

[tex]y = 2x[/tex]

Required

Number of hours at each job

Substitute [tex]y = 2x[/tex] in [tex]x + y= 20[/tex]

[tex]x + 2x = 20[/tex]

[tex]3x =20[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = \frac{20}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x = 6.67[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x = \frac{20}{3}[/tex] in [tex]y = 2x[/tex]

[tex]y = 2 * \frac{20}{3}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{40}{3}[/tex]

[tex]y = 13.33[/tex]

She will work 6.67 hours at the low paying job and 13.33 hours at the high paying job

PLS HELP!! Katie earned 15% more this week than last week. This week she earned $225, how much did she earn last week?

Answers

Answer:

$258.75

Step-by-step explanation:

225 * 0.15

Let last weeks pay = x

This week she earned 15% more so she earned 100% + 15% more for 115% total.

Setup an equation:

115% times x = $225

115% as a decimal = 1.15

So the equation is:

1.15x = 225

Solve for x by dividing both sides by 1.15:

X = 225/1.15

X = 195.65

Last week she earned $195.65

sin(a-30)-sin(a+30)=-coss​

Answers

Answer:

We know that:

Sin(a + b) = sin(a)*cos(b) + sin(b)*cos(a)

Then if we use this property in our expression:

sin(a-30)-sin(a+30)

We get:

sin(a)*cos(-30°) + sin(-30°)*cos(a) - sin(a)*cos(30°) - sin(30°)*cos(a)

Now remember that:

sin(-x) = -sin(x)

and

cos(-x) = cos(x)

Then we can rewrite our expression as:

sin(a)*cos(30°) - sin(30°)*cos(a) - sin(a)*cos(30°) - sin(30°)*cos(a)

= -2*sin(30°)*cos(a)

and sin(30°) = 0.5

Then:

-2*sin(30°)*cos(a) = -2*0.5*cos(a) = -cos(a)

So we get:

sin(a-30)-sin(a+30)= - cos(a)

What is the approximate distance between Chaplain and Asherville?
OA. 30.9 miles
OB.
14.7 miles
O c.
29.8 miles
OD.
16.4 miles

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

I'm hesitant to get an exact answer. You could do that with the cos law for distance. To get an approximate answer you could use the Pythagorean Theorem.

I'll try the cos law first.

Formula

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcos(C)

Givens

c = 24

a = 18

b = ?

Solution

24^2 = 18^2 + b^2 - 2*18*b*cos(94)

576 = 324 + b^2 - 36*b*(-0.0698)

0 = 324 - 576 + b^2 + 2.511b

0 = b^2 + 2.511 - 252

Using the quadratic formula, the roots are

b1 = 14.66

b2 = - 17.11

The second one has no meaning in the real world.

Answer

the distance is 14.66 miles from Chaplin to Asherville

Note: using the Pythagorean theorem gives 15.87 which I would count as a good approximation.

The residents of a certain dormitory have collected the following data: People who live in the dorm can be classified as either involved in a relationship or uninvolved. Among involved people, 15 percent experience a breakup of their relationship every month. Among uninvolved people, 15 percent enter into a relationship every month. What is the steady-state percentage of residents who are uninvolved

Answers

Answer:

the steady-state percentage of residents who are uninvolved is 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given the data in the question;

let N represent total number of people in the dormitory

I represent  people involved in a relationship

and U represent people uninvolved in a relationship.

so

N = I + U

I = N - U ------ let this be equation 1

Rate of Uninvolved = U/N

now, given that rate of break ups B = 15% every month = 0.15

rate of entering into relationship  R = 15% every month = 0.15

Now, the steady state condition is;

RU = BI ------- let this be equation 2

such that uninvolved rate is constant.

we input equation 1 into 2;

RU = B( N - U  )

we divide both sides by N

RU/N = B( N/N - U/N  )

RU/N = B( 1 - U/N  )

U/N = B / (B + R)

so we substitute

U/N = 0.15 / (0.15 + 0.15)

U/N = 0.15 / 0.3

U/N = 0.5

Therefore, the steady-state percentage of residents who are uninvolved is 0.5

Unknown to a medical researcher, 9 out of 20 patients have a heart problem that will result in death if they receive the test drug. 8 patients are randomly selected to
receive the drug and the rest receive a placebo. What is the probability that exactly 6 patients will die? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to
four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.0367 = 3.67% probability that exactly 6 patients will die

Step-by-step explanation:

The patients are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question, we have that:

20 patients means that [tex]N = 20[/tex]

Sample of 8 means that [tex]n = 8[/tex]

9 have the heart problem, so [tex]k = 9[/tex]

What is the probability that exactly 6 patients will die?

This is P(X = 6).

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = h(6,20,8,9) = \frac{C_{9,6}*C_{11,2}}{C_{20,8}} = 0.0367[/tex]

0.0367 = 3.67% probability that exactly 6 patients will die

Answers

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Before graphing this equation we first need to isolate y on one side like so...

y + 2 = 3(x+1)   ... distribute the 3 to both values inside the parenthesis

y + 2 = 3x + 3   ... subtract 2 on both sides

y = 3x + 1

Now that we have the y variable isolated we see that the slope of the function is 3, meaning that for every 1 unit right the line needs to move 3 units up. We also have the value where the line needs to cross the y-axis and that is 1. Using this information we see that the correct graph is C.

Melinda is planning to attend a private university after she graduates from high school in 3 years. She is devising a plan to save money each month to help with the expenses of attending the university. The cost of attending the private university for one year is $22,500. Her family has promised to contribute $13,500 each year she is in school. Which plan shows the minimum amount of money Melinda must contribute to her savings to have enough money to pay for her first year of tuition? A: save $250 per month for the next 3 years B: Save $375 per month for the next 3 years C: Save $625 per month for the next 3 years D: Save $750 per month for the next 3 years​

Answers

Answer:

A: save $250 per month for the next 3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Melinda has three more years in high school as stated in the question.

One year private university tuition = $22,500

Support from family = $13,500

Amount that Melinda has to pay = $22,500 - $13,500 = $9000

Number of months in three years = 3 * 12 = 36 months

If she must save $9000 in 36 months

Then $x  must be saved in 1 month

x = $9000/36

x = $250

It is a model that explains processes that increase at twice the rate. It is employed in circumstances where growth starts slowly but quickly accelerates without bounds, or decay starts quickly but slows down to zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marcus can expect to have red chip 20 times.

What is probability?

Probability denotes the possibility of the outcome of any random event. The meaning of this term is to check the extent to which any event is likely to happen.

Given that, Marcus has a bag of 10 red chips, 15 blue chips, and 5 black chips.

He did an experiment 60 times and we need to find that how many times would he expect to pick a red chip,

So,

Here the favorable outcomes = red chips (10)

Total outcomes = all the chips = 15+5+10 = 20

So, the probability of finding a red chips for the 60 times = 10/20 x 60

= 30

Hence, Marcus can expect to have red chip 20 times.
