Kaley's family drove to DisneyLand for spring break. Her mom and dad shared the driving duties for a total of 24 hours. Her mom drove 75 miles per hour, and her dad drove 60 miles per hour. If they drove a total of 1,710 miles, how many hours did each person drive for?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mom drove for 18 hours.

Dad drove for 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of hours for the driving duty = 24 hours

Speed at which the mom drove = 75 miles per hour

Speed at which the dad drove = 60 miles per hour

Total distance driven by both of them = 1710 miles

To find:

Number of hours for which each person drive for ?

Solution:

Let number of hours driven by dad = [tex]x[/tex] hours

Let number of hours driven by mom =  (24 - [tex]x[/tex]) hours

Let us have a look at the formula for Distance in terms of Speed and Time.

[tex]Distance = Speed \times Time[/tex]

Distance traveled by Mom = [tex]75 \times x =75x \ miles[/tex]

Distance traveled by dad = [tex]60(24-x) =144-60x[/tex] miles

As per question statement:

[tex]75x+1440-60x=1710\\\Rightarrow 15x=1710-1440\\\Rightarrow 15x = 270\\\Rightarrow x = 18\ hours[/tex]

So, Mom drove for 18 hours.

Dad drove for 6 hours.

d:

e:​

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Equation for line a:

Line a is a vertical line, hence, the slope is undefined. Equation of a vertical line is given as x = k. Where k is the x-intercept and would remain the same irrespective of the corresponding y-coordinates of all the other points on the vertical line.

In line a, the x-intercept is -4. Therefore, the equation for line a would be:

✅ x = -4

✔️Equation for line b:

Line b is also a vertical line, and would be represented as x = k.

The value of k is the point olwhere the line intercepts the x-axis.

Thus, k = 4.

Equation for line b would be:

✅ x = 4

✔️Equation for line c:

Line c is an horizontal line. Slope (m) of a horizontal line is always 0.

It can be represented in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where,

m = slope = 0

b = y-intercept = 4 (this is where the y-axis is intercepted by the line)

Thus, substitute m = 0, b = 4 in y = mx + b.

The equation for line c would be:

y = (0)(x) + 4

✅y = 4

✔️Equation for line d:

Slope (m) = 0

y-intercept (b) = -2

Substitute m = 0, and b = -2 in y = mx + b

Equation for line d awould be:

y = -2

✔️Equation for line e:

Slope (m) = [tex] \frac{rise}{run} = -\frac{3}{4} [/tex]

y-intercept (b) = 1

Substitute m = -¾, and b = 1 in y = mx + b

Equation for line e would be:

✅y = -¾x + 1

Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

r = 4s

r = 1/2s + 7

Step 2: Solve for s

Substitution

Substitute in r:                                4s = 1/2s + 7Subtract 1/2s on both sides:          7/2s = 7Divide 7/2 on both sides:              s = 2

Step 3: Solve for r

Define equation:                    r = 4sSubstitute in s:                       r = 4(2)Multiply:                                  r = 8

Answer:

s = 2

r = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

subsitution is were you plug in a systerm into the other problem

since they give you R = 4s you take 4s and plug it in were r is in the other equation (subsitution)

so now you have 4s = 1/2s+7

now you want to solve for s so your going to subtract 1/2s from both sides to cancle out the 1/2s --> 4s - 1/2s = 7 --> 3 and 1/2s = 7

now divide both sides by 3 1/2 to get s alone s = 7/3 and 1/2

s = 2

now we have s we take that and plug it into r = 4s

subsitute S as 2  --> r = 4(2)

r = 8

Carissa earns $450 per week for a 40 hour work week plus $16.83 per hour for each hour of overtime after 40 hours. Write an equation that would be used to determine her weekly wages where, W, is her wages and, V, is the number of overtime hours worked.

Answers

Answer:

The equation that determines Carissa's weekly wages is W = 450 + 16.83 × V

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are

The amount Carissa earns per week  = $450

The amount Carissa earns for each overtime hour = $16.83

Where the given variables are;

W = Her weekly wages

V = The number of overtime hours worked

Therefore, the equation that would be used to determine her weekly wages is given as follows;

W = 450 + 16.83 × V.

Hector works 10 hours per week at a part-time job. His original pay rate was $8.50 per hour, but he recently received a raise of x dollars per hour. His new total weekly pay, y, is represented by the equation y = 10(8.5 + x). If Hector earned $100 last week, what was the amount of Hector's raise per hour? A . $12.00 B .$15.00 C. $1.50 D. $3.00

Answers

Answer:

$1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the total weekly pay of Hector modeled by the equation;

y = 10(8.5 + x)

We are to find the amount of Hector's raise per hour x given the total oay y = $100

Substitute y = 100 into the equation and find x  as shown;

y = 10(8.5 + x)

100 = 10(8.5+x)

100/10 = 8.5 + x

10 = 8.5 + x

x = 10 - 8.5

x = 1.5

Hence the amount of Hector's raise per hour is $1.50

The < sign means that it will be less than so you can remove A and D. But it's not B either because of the $2 off coupon. Off means you would be subtracting meaning it'll look like this 5x < 3x - $2. So the correct answer is C.
