Two tailors, Valentina and Laura, sit down to do some embroidery. Valentina can embroider 2 shirts per hour, and Laura can get through 3 shirts per hour. In addition, the tailors had previously finished some shirts. Valentina has already completed 15 shirts, and Laura has completed 11 shirts. Valentina and Laura decide to take a break when they have finished the same total number of shirts. How many shirts, in total, will each tailor have finished? How long will that take?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Valentina and Laura finished the same total number of shirts in [tex]4[/tex] hours.

Total number of shirts finished by Valentina [tex]=23[/tex]

Total number of shirts finished by Laura [tex]=23[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that Valentina and Laura finished the same total number of shirts in [tex]t[/tex] hours.

Valentina can embroider 2 shirts per hour and Valentina has already completed 15 shirts.

Total number of shirts finished by Valentina [tex]=2t+15[/tex]

Laura can get through 3 shirts per hour and Laura has completed 11 shirts.

Total number of shirts finished by Laura [tex]=3t+11[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]2t+15=3t+11\\3t-2t=15-11\\t=4[/tex]

So,

Valentina and Laura finished the same total number of shirts in [tex]4[/tex] hours.

Total number of shirts finished by Valentina [tex]=2(4)+15=8+15=23[/tex]

Total number of shirts finished by Laura [tex]=3(4)+11=12+11=23[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Point B is located 6.5 tenths left of -8.

Answer:

Point B

Step-by-step explanation:

If you count 5 steps backward from -8, you land in the direct middle of -9 and -8. You can also count 5 steps forward from -9, but it doesn't change that the number represented is -8.5. Now focus on the distance from -8.5 to -9 (because between that distance are the points that we might be using). You repeat the same process used above, so if you half the distance between -8.5 and -9 then you'll get -8.75. As we can see, Point A is the closest to -8.75 compared to Point B. It wouldn't make sense to choose Point B because as we mentioned before, Point A is now most certainly not -8.65. Point B represents that number the best.

This formula is used to calculate the weekly pay of a letting agent. Weekly pay = basic pay + number of houses rented x bonus The basic pay is £400 and a bonus of £75 is paid for each house rented. Mrs Lewis rents out 5 houses in one week. Calculate her pay.

Answers

Answer:

£775

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, it was given that:

Weekly pay = basic pay + number of houses rented x bonus

This expression can be used to determine the amount of money being paid to the agent every week.

When basic pay = £400, bonus = £75, and the number of house rented = 5.

Then,

Weekly pay = 400 + 5(75)

                    = 400 + 375

                    = 775

Weekly pay = £775

The amount of money paid to Mrs Lewis every week is £775.

d = vt

where:

v = speed

d = distance

t = time

Based on the formula, each quantity is directionally proportional to each other. Since we don't have enough numbers to work with, we will utilize our concept skills.

If the car travels half the speed, then the car is slowing down and covers a short distance in a certain amount of time than it did originally. So we divide the default distance by 2.

180 / 2 = 90

The new distance so far is 90 miles.

But now it takes the car 3 times as long to get to its destination. The longer it takes, the more distance you will cover. Multiply the current distance by 3.

90 * 3 = 270

The car travels 270 miles.

a) The length of a rectangle is 3 m longer than its width and the area of the rectangle is 108 m². Find its length.​

Answers

Draw a rectangle. If the length is 3 inches longer than its width, we can write the width as "w" and the length as the width + 3
Area is (width)(Length) = (width)(width+3)

W
----------
| |
| |
| | L = w+3
| |
| |
-----------

A = (w+3)(w)
A = w2 + 3w = 108.
(Problem states that area is 108 sq in)

Need to solve this quadratic equation

w2 + 3y - 108 = 0

Factor:
(w - 9) (w + 12) = 0

So
w - 9 = 0. or. w + 12 = 0

Solve these and get
w = 9. or. w = -12

Only one that makes sense in real life is the poitive one.

So the dimensions are

Width = 9 inches
Length = 12 inches

Pam used the following process to find the y intercept of the line described by the equation 2y-y=11.

According to Pam's method, which expression gives the y-intercept of the line described by the equation ax+by=c?
a. -a/b
b. b/a
c. -b/c
d. c/d

Answers

Answer:

c/b

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression ax+by = c, the y intercept of the line occurs at when x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into the expression and get the value of y

ax+by = c

a(0)+by = c

0+by = c

by = c

divide both sides by b

by/b = c/b

y = c/b

Hence the y intercept of the line occurs at y c/b

Answer:

C.) y = 5/4x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Points: (0,-4) and (4,1)

m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

m = 1 - (-4)/4 - 0

m = 1 + 4/4

m = 5/4

Point: (4,1) (you may choose any points, but I will choose these since they are the easiest to work with)

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = 5/4(x - 4)

y - 1 = 5/4x - 5

y = 5/4x - 5 + 1

y = 5/4x - 4

You buy five books that are equal in
price and a DVD for $8. Your total
comes to $26.50. Write an equation
that would help you determine the cost
of one book.
Help!

Answers

Answer:

5x+8=26.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the books are equal in price, we can use x to represent the price of the books and 5 to represent the amount, so it would be written as 5x. Then we add 8 because that's the price of the one DVD. It tells the total is 26.50, so the full equation written would be 5x+8=26.50

5x + 8 = 26.50 ; x represents the price of 1 book
