A local sporting goods store is planning to hire up to 24 temporary employees for its annual Black Friday Sale. Experienced workers (x) will be paid $20 per hour and produce 1.5 times the profit that an inexperienced worker produces. Inexperienced workers (y) get hired at $15 per hour. The store can pay up to $400 per hour for the temporary employees. How many of each type of worker can be hired to maximize profit?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8 experienced workers and 16 inexperienced workers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of experienced workers, y represent the number of inexperienced workers.

The store can hire up to 24 temporary employees, hence:

x + y ≤ 24

The store can pay up to $400 per hour, hence:

20x + 15y ≤ 400

Also, x, y > 0

The solution to the above problem is at (8, 16). Hence x = 8 and y = 16.

The profit of an experienced worker is 1.5 times the profit that an inexperienced worker. hence:

Profit = 1.5x + y

Profit = 1.5(8) + 16

Profit = 12 + 16 = 28

The circumference of a circle is 10 inches. What is its area in square inches?

Answers

Answer:

7.96 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle given a circumference is given by formula:

[tex]A = \frac{C^{2}}{4\pi}[/tex]

So substituting into equation we have: [tex]C= 10[/tex].

Therefore [tex]A = 10^{2}/4\pi = 100/4\pi=25/\pi =7.96[/tex] square inches.

The area of the circle is 7.96 square inches if the circumference of a circle is 10 inches.

What is a circle?

It is described as a set of points, where each point is at the same distance from a fixed point (called the center of a circle)

It is given that:

The circumference of a circle is 10 inches.

As we know the circumference of a circle is given by:

C = 2πr

C is the circumference of the circle.

r is the radius of the circle.

10 = 2πr

r = 5/π inches

As we know,

The area of the circle is given by:

A = πr²

Here, A represents the area of the circle.

Plug the value of the radius r in the above formula:

A = π(5/π)²

A = 25/π square inches

Take π = 3.14

A = 25/3.14

A = 7.96 sqaure inches

Thus, the area of the circle is 7.96 square inches if the circumference of a circle is 10 inches.

Identify the angles that each have a measure of 124º.

Answers

Answer:

Angle 1, angle 3 and angle 7 will be the equal angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached,

Two lines are parallel and a transversal line is intersecting these parallel lines.

Congruent angles to the angle measuring 124° will be,

m(∠7) = 124° [Vertical angles]

m(∠1) = 124° [Corresponding angles]

m(∠3) = 124° [Alternate interior angles]

Therefore, ∠1, ∠7 and ∠3 will measure the same as 124°.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Earnings = 770.98[/tex] weekly

[tex]Amount\ Left = 385.49[/tex]

[tex]Game\ Cost = 1541.72[/tex]

Represent the time with t

The relationship between the given parameters can be expressed as:

Amount + Earnings in t weeks = Game Cost

This gives:

3. Diego made the shape on the left, and Elena made the shape on the right. Each shape

Select all the true statements.
A. The smallest circle in Diego's design is congruent to the smallest circle in Elena's
design.
B. Diego's design is congruent to Elena's design
C. Elena's design is a translation of Diego's design

Answers

The two circle designs are missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

Options A & B are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruent circles are basically identical. This means that they have the same radius and diameter but different centres.

Now, from the attached image, we see that the smallest circle in diogo's design has diameter of 2 units & radius of 1 unit while the one in Elena's design also has exactly the same measurement. Thus, we can conclude the smallest circle in diogo's design which is the first one is congruent to the smallest circle in the second design for Elena.

So option A is correct.

Looking carefully at both designs, we can observe that one is concentric while the other is eccentric. However, all the similar sized circles have the same radius & diameter. Thus, we can still say that both designs are congruent. So option B is correct.

In transformations, a translation is when all the points in a an object are made to move up or down in a state straight line in that same direction. However, the objects shape and size remains the exactly the same.

In this case, it's not so because the circle changed from concentric circles to eccentric circles. So this option C is not correct.
