Fatuma recently hired a roofer to do some necessary work. On the final bill, Fatuma was charged a total of $1449. $315 was listed for parts and the rest for labor. If the hourly rate for labor was $63, how many hours of labor was needed to complete the job?


(A) First write an equation you can use to answer this question. Use x as your variable and express any percents in decimal form in the equation.


The equation is


(B) Solve your equation in part (A) to find the number of labor hours needed to do the job.


Answer: The number of labor hours was

Answers

Answer 1

(A) The equation is:

$63[tex]x[/tex] = $1449 - $315

(B) The labor hours needed to complete the job was 18 hours.

STEPS TO FIND TIME OF THE COMPLETE JOBS

(A) To find the number of labor hours needed to complete the job, we can set up an equation using the information given in the problem.

We know that the total bill was $1449, and $315 of that was for parts. So the remaining amount, $1449 - $315 = $1134, was for labor.

We also know that the hourly rate for labor was $63. To find the number of hours needed for labor, we can divide the amount for labor by the hourly rate:

        $63[tex]x[/tex] = $1449 - $315

        [tex]x[/tex] = ($1134 / $63)

Solving this equation gives us the number of hours needed for labor, which is 18 hours. We can check this by multiplying 18 hours by the hourly rate, which should give us the same amount for labor:

        [tex]x[/tex] = ($1134 / $63)

           = 18 hours

Double check for:

        18 hours × $63 = $1134

This confirms that 18 hours is the correct number of labor hours needed to complete the job.

The point (14, –3) and (–10, –3) fall on a particular line. What i it equation in lope-intercept form?

Answers

Its equation in the slope-intercept form will be y = -3 because the y coordinates of both points are equal.

Given points in terms of coordinates so let's try to understand what are coordinates.

Coordinates are a pair of integers (Cartesian coordinates), or sporadically a letter and a number, that identify a certain place on a grid, also referred to as a coordinate plane. The x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis(vertical) are the two axes that make up a coordinate plane. (Telling children that the x-axis crosses because "x" is a cross helps them remember which of these is which.)

We have total 4 coordinates

First Coordinate both x and y are positive.

Second Coordinate x is negative and y is positive.

Third Coordinate both x and y are negative.

Fourth Coordinate x is positive and y is negative.

Point A is (14, -3)

Point B is (-10, -3) both have the same y coordinate.

So line AB is parallel to the x-axis.

The formula for the equation in the slope-intercept formula is

y = mx + c.

m is the slope of the line and c is the intercept on the y-axis.

Line AB is parallel to the x-axis the equation is y = -3.

Find each measure for the given set of data: 11, 13, 17, 20, 22, 25, 27, 31, 31, 33

Answers

The values of mean ,median, range and inter quartile range could be 23,23.5,22,14 respectively.

What is mean ?

mean can be defined as the ratio of sum of the total observations and the number of total observations.

Given set of data

11,13,17,20,22,25,27,31,31,33

Mean  =  11 +13+17+20+22+25+27+31+31+33/10

= 230/10

 =23

Hence  mean = 23

The (n/2)th term= the 5th term

                       =22

The  (n/2+1) term = The  6th term

= 25

The median = 22+25/2

                  =23.5

Range = Highest term - lowest term

          =33- 11

           =22

Here lower half {11,13,17,20,22}

The middle number of lower half is first quartile.

Q₁ = 17

And lower half is{25,27,31,31,33}

The middle number of upper half is third quartile.

Q₃=31

Interquartile Range =Q₃-Q₁

                               =31-17

                                =14

Hence, The values of mean ,median, range and inter quartile range could be 23,23.5,22,14 respectively.

In the given pairs of polygons the scale factor of figure A to figure B is  2:4.

How is scale factor calculated?

The scale factor is calculated using the following fundamental formula: Scale factor = Dimension of the new shape Dimension of the old shape. The formula for calculating the scale factor is expressed as Scale factor = Larger figure dimensions Smaller figure dimensions in the event that the original figure is magnified.

The ratio of a smaller figure's side to its corresponding side in the bigger figure is the scale factor between the two figures.

As a result, the smaller figure's side length of 4 units and its side length of 10 units are equivalent.

Therefore:

Scale factor = 4:10

Answers

The probability of selecting one banana, then one apple, then one orange, in that order, from the basket if you are blindfolded is 1/22.

What is the probability:

The probability of an event occurring is defined by probability. There are many instances in real life where we may need to make predictions about how something will turn out.

The outcome of an event may be known to us or unknown to us. When this happens, we indicate that there is a probability that the event will happen or not.

It is also defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

The formula for the probability of an event is given by

P(E) = No of favorable outcomes/ Total No of outcomes ]

Here we have

A basket of fruit contains 4 bananas, 3 apples, and 5 oranges.

Total number of fruits = 4 + 3 + 5 = 12

By the given formula,

Probability of selecting 1 banana = 4/12 = 1/3

Probability of selecting 1 apple = 3/12 = 1/4

Probability of selecting 1 orange = 5/12

The order of the fruits that is given is 1 banana, then 1 apple, then 1 orange

Let's assume that,

We taken 1 banana

=> The probability of selecting one banana = 1/3

After taking one banana, remaining fruits = 12 - 1 = 11

Now we have drawn 1 apple

=> The probability of selecting one apple in 11 fruits = 3/11

After taking one apple remaining fruits = 11 - 1 = 10

=> The probability of selecting one orange from 10 fruits = 5/10 = 1/2

From the above calculations,

The probability of selecting in given order = (1/3)(3/11)(1/2) = 3/66 = 1/22

Therefore,

The probability of selecting one banana, then one apple, then one orange, in that order, from the basket if you are blindfolded is 1/22.

Difference in the volumes = volume of the larger sphere - volume of the smaller sphere

Answers

When two lines intersect each other, then the opposite angles formed are called vertical angles or vertically opposite angles.

A pair of vertically opposite angles are equal to each other. Also, a vertically opposite angle and its adjacent angle are supplementary angles, i.e., they add up to 180 degrees. For example, if two lines intersect and make an angle, say X=35°, then its opposite angle is also equal to 35°. And the adjacent angle to angle X will be equal to 180 – 35 = 145°

In the given figure, ∠QOR and ∠SOP form a pair of vertically opposite angles and similarly ∠SOQ and ∠POR form such a pair. Therefore,

What is the equation for the linear model in the scatter plot obtained by choosing the two points closest to the line?
A)Y = -3 x+ 56
B)Y = -2 x +46
C)Y = -2 x +56
D)Y = 2 x + 56

Answers

The equation for the linear model in the scatter plot is Y = -2x + 56.

To calculate this equation, we need to find the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b). The slope is calculated with the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where x and y represent the coordinates of two points on the graph.

The two points closest to the line in the scatter plot are (2, 48) and (4, 52). Substituting these values into the formula gives us m = (52 - 48) / (4 - 2) = 4/2 = 2.

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. To find it, we need to substitute the slope and one point's coordinates into the equation y = mx + b. For our equation, we will use the coordinates (2, 48). Substituting these values into the equation gives us 48 = 2x + b, and solving for b gives us b = 48 - 2(2) = 44.

Therefore, the equation for the linear model in the scatter plot is Y = -2x + 56.
