Myra gets paid at home for doing extra chores. Last week, she did 5 loads of laundry and 8 loads of dishes, and her parents paid her $18. The week before, she finished 4 loads of laundry and 6 loads of dishes, earning a total of $14. How much does Myra earn for completing each type of chore?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Laundry = $2

Dishes= $1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount paid for doing laundry be x

Let the amount paid for doing dishes be y.

Based on the information in the question, this can be formed in an equation as:

5x + 8y = 18 ..... i

4x + 6y = 14 ...... ii

Multiply equation i by 4

Multiply equation ii by 5

20x + 32y = 72 ...... iii

20x + 30y = 70 ...... iv

Subtract iv from iii

2y = 2

y = 2/2 = 1

Dishes cost $1

Since 5x + 8y = 18

5x + 8(1) = 18

5x = 18 - 8

5x = 10

x = 2

Laundry cost $2

Matching this form to the equation you have, you see that ...

  m = 5 . . . the slope of your given line.

Find the slope of the line (-2,0) (2,3)

Answers

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = {3/4} x + 1.5

The slope of the line passing through the points (-2, 0) and (2, 3) is 3/4.

What is the slope?

The slope is the rate of change of the y-axis with respect to the x-axis.

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where

slope = m and y-intercept = b.

We know the greater the absolute value of a slope is the more steeper is it's graph or rate of change is large.

We know slope(m) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).

∴ Slope of the line with points (-2, 0) and (2, 3) is,

Slope(m) = (3 - 0)/(2 + 2) = 3/4.

its 5x - 2 = -7

Answers

Answer:

x= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x1 would be -5 then -5 - 2 would be -7

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The key thing to remember is that every operation you do on either side needs to be done on the other.

Let's start by getting rid of that -2  you can do that by adding 2 to both sides of the equals sign:

5x - 2 = -7

5x - 2 + 2 = -7 + 2

5x - 0 = -5

5x = -5

The next step is to get rid of that 5 on the left.  We can do that by dividing both sides by 5:

5x = -5

5x ÷ 5 = -5 ÷ 5

x = -1

And there you have it! x is equal to negative one.

Part B: Which plumber charges a higher initial fee? Explain how you know.
Part C: Which plumber charges less money for working 5 hours? Show your work to justify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

A) Plumber B charges 55 dollars per hour (105=50+55(1)) because for 1 hour the total is 105, meaning that 105 is y and 1 is x. 50+55=105

B) Plumber A charges more because he charges 100 dollars vs Plumber B's 50 dollars.

C) Plumber A:  250=100+30(5)       Plumber B:  325=50+55(5)

Plumber A charges less money for working 5 hours.

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Given that,

Two plumbers charge an initial fee and an hourly rate.

The equation y=100+30x -----(I) models plumber A's fee, where y is the total charge, in dollars, and x is the number of hours worked.

Part A:

From the table, we have (1, 105) and (2, 160)

Now, m=(160-105)/(2-1)

= 55

Substitute m=55 and (x, y)=(1, 105) in y=mx+c, we get

105=55(1)+c

c=60

Substitute m=55 and c=60 in y=mx+c, we get

y=55x+60 -----(II)

By comparing (I) and (II), we can conclude that plumber B charges more hourly fee.

Part B: By comparing (I) and (II), we can conclude that plumber A charges more initial fee.

Part C: Substitute x=5 in y=100+30x, we get

y=$250

Substitute x=5 in y=55(5)+60, we get

y=$335

Plumber A charges less money for working 5 hours.

Therefore, plumber A charges more initial fee.

For the graph on the right, find the Average Rate of Change from 7 to 60 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

The average rate of change from 7 to 60 minutes is 0.36 miles per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

at x₁ = 7, f(x₁) = 8

at x₂ = 60,  f(x₂) = 27

Using the formula to determine the average rate of change at which the total cost increases will be:

Average rate = [f(x₂) - f(x₁)] / [ x₂ - x₁]  

                     = [27 - 8] / [60-7]  

                     = 19 / 53

                     = 0.36

Therefore, the average rate of change from 7 to 60 minutes is 0.36 miles per minute.

The gradient of line perpendicular to AB is: m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The equation of line passing through point A and perpendicular to AB is [tex]\mathbf{y=\frac{1}{2}x+6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The line on the graph passes through the points A (0,6) and B (3,0)

b) Find the gradient of a line perpendicular to AB

First we will find gradient (slope) of AB

The formula used to find Slope is: [tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We have [tex]x_1=0, y_1=6, x_2=3, y_2=0[/tex]

Putting values and finding slope:

[tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{0-6}{3-0}\\Slope=\frac{-6}{3}\\Slope=-2[/tex]

So, we get slope: m = -2

Now, the gradient of line perpendicular to AB will be opposite to the slope of AB

The gradient of line perpendicular to AB is: m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

c) Find the equation of line passing through point A and perpendicular to AB

The equation of line can be found using slope m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and y-intercept b

We need to find y-intercept b:

Using slope m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  and point A (0,6)

y=mx+b

6= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (0)+b

6=0+b

b=6

So, y-intercept is b =6

So, Equation of line with slope m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  and y-intercept b =6 is:

[tex]y=mx+b\\y=\frac{1}{2}x+6[/tex]

So, The equation of line passing through point A and perpendicular to AB is [tex]\mathbf{y=\frac{1}{2}x+6}[/tex]
