At a potluck, Agatha brings four dishes, Bertha brings three dishes, and five other friends bring no dishes but instead money to help pay for the food. If all the dishes are eaten up, and everyone eats the same amount, what fraction of the money should go to Bertha?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Agatha brings four dishes, Bertha brings three dishes. The total number of dishes brought = dishes brought by Agatha + dishes brought by Bertha.

Total dishes = 4 + 3 = 7 dishes

The remaining five friends brought money for the dishes. Therefore the fraction of money going to Bertha is the ratio of dishes brought to Bertha to the total number of dishes multiplied by the money. Therefore:

Fraction of the money should go to Bertha =  dishes brought by Bertha/total dishes

Fraction of the money should go to Bertha = 3/7 × money

Find the slope and Y-Intercept of the line. 6X plus 2Y equals -88

Answers

Answer:

That’s ez pz

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The slope is -3 and the y intercept is -44

Step-by-step explanation:

6X+ 2Y= -88

The slope intercept form of a line is y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Solve for y

6X-6x+ 2Y= -88-6x

2y = -6x-88

Divide by 2

y = -3x -44

The slope is -3 and the y intercept is -44

12x + 4y = 152 32x + 12y = 420 what is y?

Answers

Answer:

the value of x = 9  and y =11.

Given the system of equation:

12x + 4y =152                  .......[1]

32x + 12y = 420              ......[2]

Multiply equation [1] by 3 we get;

Using distributive property:  

            ......[3]

On solving equation [2] and [3] simultaneously we get;

x = 9

Substitute the value of x= 9 in [1] to solve for y;

108 + 4y = 152

Subtract 108 from both sides we have;

108 + 4y -108 = 152- 108

Simplify:

4y = 44

Divide both sides by 4 we get;

Simplify:

y= 11

therefore, the value of x = 9  and y =11.

The Acme Company lost 650 hours due to accidents on the job in the first quarter of the year. The average hourly wage of the employees who contributed to the lost hours was $15.00. The company benefits add 25% to the wages. Using the cost-of-lost-hours formula (employee hours lost X average loaded labour rate = cost), calculate the direct cost of the lost work hours. Discuss the approach you would use to estimate the hidden costs that would also be associated with the lost hours.
Your answer must be at least 200 words in length.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ;

The Acme Company lost 650 hours due to accidents on the job in the first quarter of the year

The average hourly wage of the employees who contributed to the lost hours was $15.00 . i.e the direct labor cost = $15.00

The company benefits add 25% to the wages. = 0.25

The loaded labor cost = $15.00/hr × 0.25 = $3.75/hour

If we add the additional cost of benefit, then we have the loaded labor cost to be =  $15.00/hour + $3.75/hour

= $18.75 / hour

However, the direct labor costs that the workers continued to receive without working. for the  first quarter of the year by using the cost-of-lost-hours formula is  :

= 650 hours × $15.00 / hours

= $9750

The hidden costs can be estimated from the Acme company's contributions to the employee. Given that the company benefits add 25% to the wage of the employee, therefore, this wage must be incorporated in order to find out the total wage cost for the lost work hours in the Acme company.

As a result of the company benefits, the fully loaded labor cost is 650 hours  × $18.75 /hour which gives $12187.5.

Consequently, it is pertinent to determine the cost for  additional benefits that the workers are receiving even though they are not working, this is achieved by the difference in the $9750 direct cost paid to labor and the benefits amount of $12187.5

i.e

the cost for additional benefits that the workers are receiving even though they are not working = $12187.5 - $9750 = $2437.5

Other ways the hidden cost can be estimated is by take note of the amount paid to the employee on the day the employee had  an emergency, amount paid to the rescue team involved. etc

Answers

Tan30=9/x so it will be 9((3)^1/2)

Answer:

x = 9√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the figure above is a right angled triangle we can use trigonometric ratios to find x

To find x we use tan

tan∅ = opposite/ adjacent

From the question

The opposite is 9

The adjacent is x

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

[tex] \tan(30) = \frac{9}{x} [/tex]

[tex]x \tan(30) = 9[/tex]

Divide both sides by tan 30

[tex]x = \frac{9}{ \tan(30) } [/tex]

We have the final answer as

x = 9√3

AB = 15, BC = 10, and CD= 7. Find the length DA.
451. Equilateral triangles BCP and CDQ are attached to the outside of regular pentagon
ABCDE. Is quadrilateral BPQD a parallelogram? Justify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

  451. No, the angles are wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

450. AB = 15, BC = 10, and CD= 7. Find the length DA.

  This cannot be done without additional information about the sort of figure that ABCD is. If these are points on a line segment, we need to know their order. If these are points on a quadrilateral, we need to know its description in more detail.

If these are points ordered ABCD on a line, then AD = 15+10+7 = 32.

__

451. See the attached figure. BPQD is not a parallelogram: BCQ is not a straight line. (The internal angles of a pentagon are 108°, but would need to be 120° for BCQ to be a straight line, making BP parallel to DQ.) Instead, BPQD is an isosceles trapezoid.

Olivia has 4 2/3 yards of fabric to make scarves. She needs 3/4 yards for one scarf. How many
scarves can she make?​

Answers

Answer:

6 scarves

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that 3/4 yd. = 1 (scarf)

We have 4 2/3 material to make the scarves

=> convert to an improper fraction 4 2/3 = 14/3

=> Divide material by needed amt.

=> 14/3 / 3/4 = 14/3 x 4/3

=> 14/3 x 4/3 = 56/9

56/9 = 6 2/9

But 6 2/9 is not our answer. Since we need a full amt. of scraves, we round down to our final answer of 6 scarves.

If 50% of the network’s shows have received a favorable response and have been successful, and 30% of the network’s shows have received an unfavorable response and have been successful, what is the probability that this new show will be successful if it receives a favorable response?

Ship Co. produces storage crates that require 1.2 meters of material at $.85 per meter and 01 direct labor hours at $15.00 per hour Overhead is applied at the rate of $9 per direct labor hour What is the total standard cost for one unit of product that would appear on a standard cost card?

Answers

Answer:

$3.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Meters of material required = 1.2 meters

Cost per meter of material = $0.85

Direct labor hours = 0.1

Cost of direct labor per hour = $15

Overhead rate = $9 per direct labor hour

Standard cost per unit of product :

(Direct material cost per unit + direct labor cost per unit + overhead cost per unit)

Direct material cost per unit :

Material needed × cost per meter = (1.2 × $0.85) = $1.02

Direct labor cost per unit :

Direct labor hour × cost per hour = ( 0.1 × $15) = $1.5

Overhead cost:

0.1 * $9 = $0.9

Standard cost :

($1.02 + $1.5 + $0.9) = $3.42

Answer: C) increase from 45 degrees to 50 degrees

===============================================

Explanation:

Let's calculate the angle B based off the arcs CDF and GHJ

B = (far arc - near arc)/2

B = (arc CDF - arc GHJ)/2

B = (130 - 40)/2

B = 90/2

B = 45

----------

Now let's change GHJ to 30 degrees, while keeping the other arc the same.

B = (far arc - near arc)/2

B = (arc CDF - arc GHJ)/2

B = (130 - 30)/2

B = 100/2

B = 50

Angle B has increased from 45 degrees to 50 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

B-C=30⇒-C=30-B ⇒C=B-30

the sum of angle of a triangle = 180

A+B+C=180 ( substitute A and C)

B+15+B+B-30=180

3B-15=180

3B=180+15

B=195/3=65

C=B-30 ⇒ C=65-30=35

A=B+15=65+15=80
