Oscar charges $25 for the first hour of tutoring and $15 for each additional hour or fraction of an hour. The rates that Latoya charges for x hours of tutoring are modeled with the function shown.


Who will charge more for 5.5 hours, Oscar or Latoya? How much more?


Who?

How much more?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Layota

$47.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of hours = x

Given that:

Oscar's charges :

First hour = $25

Additional hours = $15

Thus :

Total charge : 25 + 15(x - 1)

The piece wise equation given for Layota's charge rate :

First 3 hours = $30

Next 3 hours = $20

Hours greater Than 6 = $10

If total hours ; x = 5.5 hours

Oscar :

$25 + $15(5.5 - 1)

$25 + $15(4.5)

$25 + $67.5

= $92.5

Layota:

First 3 hours :

$30 * 3 = $90

Hours left :

$20 * (5.5 - 3)

$20 * 2.5 = 50

Total = $90 + $50 = $140

Layota charges more : 140 > 92.5

Difference :

$140 - $92.5

= $47.5

Oscar Charges $25 For The First Hour Of Tutoring And $15 For Each Additional Hour Or Fraction Of An Hour.

Three (3) consecutive integers is such that the largest is x. Write an expression
for the smallest.

Answers

Answer:

Consider 3 consecutive integers: (smallest) x, x+1 and x+2 (largest)

Step-by-step explanation:

Five times the smallest means 5x

Sum of the largest and five times the smallest means x+2+5x

This sum is -244 means x+2+5x=-244

Solve this equation

x+2+5x=-244

6x+2=-244

6x=-244-2

6x=-246

x=-41

So, smallest number is -41, second is -40 and largest is -39

You're answer is -39+5(-41)=244

5(6-3)=6+3 show ur work

Answers

Answer:

No Solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify  6−3  to  3.

5×3=6+3

Simplify 5×3  to 15.

15=6+3

Simplify  6+3 to 9.

15=9

Since 15=9 is false, there is no solution.

No Solution

We have to use PEMDAS since there is parentheses, so we start with 6-3, which equals 3, then we can multiply that by 5, to get 15. Now the right side, that’s just simple addition, 6+3=9, so final answer is 15=9. Would appreciate brainliest!

Jayce bought 5 bath towels and returned 2 hand towels. His sister Jayna bought 3 bath

towels and returned 4 hand towels. Jayce paid a total of $124 and Jayna paid a total of

5b - 2h = 124

$24. The system of equations

models this situation, where b is the

3b - 4h = 24

price of a bath towel and h is the price of a hand towel. How much does each kind of

towel cost?

Answers

Answer:

Bath towels = $32

Hand towels = $18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

5b - 2h = 124 (1)

3b - 4h = 24 (2)

Multiply (1) by 2 to eliminate h

10b - 4h = 228 (3)

3b - 4h = 24 (2)

Subtract (2) from (3)

10b - 3b = 248 - 24

7b = 224

b = 224 / 7

b = 32

Substitute b = 32 into (2)

3b - 4h = 24

3(32) - 4h = 24

96 - 4h = 24

-4h = 24 - 96

-4h = -72

h = -72 / -4

= 18

h = 18

Bath towels = $32

Hand towels = $18

how do you find the axis of symmetry?​

Answers

Answer:

The axis of symmetry always passes through the vertex of the parabola . The x -coordinate of the vertex is the equation of the axis of symmetry of the parabola. For a quadratic function in standard form, y=ax2+bx+c , the axis of symmetry is a vertical line x=−b2a .

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x=-b/2a

Step-by-step explanation:

axis of symmetry is the line that across the vertex from a parabola(ax^2+bx+c).

The expression to find vertex is -b/2a

Thus, x=-b/2a is a vertical line that across the vertex aka the axis of symmetry.
