4a-14=7a-8

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

4a-14=7a-8

Subtract 7a from both sides:

4a-14-7a=7a-8-7a

Group like terms:

4a-7a-14=7a-8-7a

Simplify the arithmetic:

-3a-14=7a-8-7a

Group like terms:

-3a-14=7a=-7a-7a-8

Simplify the arithmetic:

-3a-14=-8

Add 14 to both sides:

-3a-14+14=-8+14

Simplify the arithmetic:

-3a=-8+14

Simplify the arithmetic:

-3a=6

Divide both sides by-3:

Nadia charges $6.50 an hour for babysitting. She babysits 19.50 hours the first week of the month and 19 hours the second week of the month.


Suppose Nadia raises her rate by $0.65 an hour. How many hours would she need to work to earn the same amount of money she made in the first two weeks of the month?


Complete the explanation and give your answer.


Nadia's new hourly rate is $___ .She would need to work ___ hours in the next two weeks to make the same amount she made in the first two weeks.

Answers

Answer:

Her new hourly rate is $7.15. She would need to work 35 hours  in the next two weeks to make the same amount she made in the first two weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

6.50+.65=7.15 which is the new hourly rate

19+19.50 to find how many hours in total which is 38.5 hours

you multiply the rate of 6.50 by 38.5 and you get $250.25 in 2 weeks for the old rate.

I just multiplied until I found the amount of hours to make 250.25 with the new rate.

7.15x35=250.25

Answer:

New hourly rate: $7.15

Total number of hours: 35

Step-by-step explanation:

$6.50 per hour:

Given Nadia's hourly rate of $6.50:

For the first week of the month, she babysits for 19.50 hours:

$6.50 per hour × 19.50 hours = $126.75  (Week 1)

For the second week of the month, she babysits for 19 hours:

$6.50 per hour × 19 hours = $123.50 (Week 2).

For those two weeks, she worked for a total of 38.50 hours, and earned $250.25.

$6.50 + $0.65 per hour increase:

Nadia increased her hourly rate by $0.65, which means that her new hourly rate will be: $6.50 + $0.65 = $7.15 per hour.

Since we need to determine how many hours she needs to work for in the next two weeks to make the same amount as she did in the first two weeks, we could divide her weekly earnings by her new hourly rate for babysitting:

Week 3:

Divide Nadia's earnings for week 1 by $7.15:

$126.75 ÷ $7.15 = 17.72 hours

Week 4:

Divide Nadia's earnings for week 2 by $7.15:

$123.50 ÷ $7.15 = 17.27 hours

Week 3 + Week 4 hours = 17.72 + 17.27  = 34.99 or 35 hours

If you multiply her total working hours for weeks 3 and 4 by her new hourly rate:

35 hours × $7.15 per hour =  $250.25  (This matches her total earnings for Week 1 and 2).

Therefore, Nadia's new hourly rate is $7.15. She would need to work for 35 hours in the next two weeks to make the same amount she made in the first two weeks.

Last week, Byron bought 5 containers of yogurt and spent $12.88 on other groceries.
This week Cassandra bought 3 containers of the same yogurt and spent $11.50 on other groceries. How much more money did Byron spend than Cassandra?


1. Let c represent the cost of one container of yogurt. Write
expressions to represent the amount spent by Byron and the
amount spent by Cassandra.

2. Write an expression to represent the difference by subtracting the
amount that Cassandra spent from the amount that Byron spe
nt.
Then complete the steps to simplify the expression.

3. What expression represents how much more money Byron spent

than Cassandra?

Please give answer and stepes for each number

Answers

The Answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

1=5x$12.88-3x$11.50

Answer:

1.  Byron: 5c + 12.88. Cassandra: 3c+11.50.

2. (5c + 12.88) - (3c + 11.50).

3. Same as 2, I think. I can’t solve the actual expression because the cost of the yogurt is unknown, however the expression simplified is  2c + 1.38

Step-by-step explanation:

1. c is the cost of one container of yogurt. Writing 5c basically means 5xc and it works because Byron bought 5 containers. Cassandra bought 3, so it works the same way.

2. The cost of the yogurt is unknown, so you can’t just substract the total from the other one. Use parentheses that contain the exact same expression that represents the money spent.

3. Explained in the answer

An object that weighs 1 on Earth weighs 1.19 pounds on Neptune. Suppose a dog weighs 9 pounds on earth. How much would the same dog weigh on Neptune?

(40 points!)

Answers

Answer:

f 1 pound on Earth is equal to 1.19 pounds on Neptune all you have to do is multiply the number of Earth pounds by their Neptunian equivalent: 9x1.19=10.71 the dog would weigh 10.71 pounds :) I hope this makes sense :)

Answer:

They will weigh 10.71 on Neptune

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

1 Earth              9 Earth

Ratios and Rates word problems

A Ferris wheel accommodate 75 people in 30 minutes . how many people could ride the Ferris wheel in 6 hours? what was the rate per hour?

Answers

Answer: The ferris wheel could accomodate 900 people in 6 hours. The rate per hour was 150 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off we can find the number of people by deciding how many time slots of 30 minutes are in 6 hours. Since 30 minutes is half an hour we just do 2 times 6 which would give us 12. Since 75 people can fit in 30 minutes then we do 12 times 75 for the whole 6 hours which comes out to 900.

Once we have the number of people in 6 hours then we can find the hourly rate. To do this we just take the number of people (900) in the whole time (6 hours) and divide 6 from 900 which would give us the hourly rate of 150.

Answer:

900 people

Step-by-step explanation:

One hour is 60 minutes, and the number of thirty minutes in an hour is two. To get the number of thirty minutes in 6 hours, you would do 2 x 6, which is 12.  After this, you would do 12 x 75 since 75 people ride it in 30 minutes. This equals 900.
