Mary’s yard is a mess. She needs to hire someone to prune her trees and shrubs. A landscaping service she calls quotes her a pri

ce of $15 consultation fee plus $8 an hour for the actual work. Mary’s neighbor has offered to help her out. She doesn’t charge a consultation fee, but does charge $10 an hour for her work. Who do you think Mary should hire for a 3-hour job? When, if at all, would it be more economical to hire the other service. (Set up and solve a system of equations to answer this question.) a. Mary should hire her neighbor; if there was more than 7.5 hours of work she should hire the landscaping service. b. Mary should hire her neighbor; if there was more than 4.2 hours of work she should hire the landscaping service. c. Mary should hire the landscaping service; if there was more than 7.5 hours of work she should hire her neighbor. d. Mary should hire the landscaping service; if there was more than 4.2 hours of work she should hire her neighbor.

Answer:

Please mark me brainliest and I hoped this helped!

She should ask her neighbor to help her.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use equations to help us figure out this answer.

8x + 15 = y

10x = y

If she has a 3 hour job, we can use 3 instead of x.

8(3) + 15 = y

24 + 15 = y

30 = y for the landscaping service

10(3) = y

30 = y for a neighbors help

It will cost her 9 dollars less, so she should go with the neighbor.

Answer:

<u>The measure of the arc CD = 64°</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

It is required to find the measure of the arc CD in degrees.

So, as shown at the graph

BE and AD are are diameters of circle P

And ∠APE is a right angle ⇒ ∠APE = 90°

So, BE⊥AD

And so, ∠BPE = 90° ⇒(1)

But it is given: ∠BPE = (33k-9)° ⇒(2)

From (1) and (2)

∴ 33k - 9 = 90

∴ 33k = 90 + 9 = 99

∴ k = 99/33 = 3

The measure of the arc CD = ∠CPD = 20k + 4

By substitution with k

<u>∴ The measure of the arc CD = 20*3 + 4 = 60 + 4 = 64°</u>

Tim was given a large bag of sweets and ate one third of the sweets before stopping as he was feeling sick. The next day he ate
mars1129 [50]

Answer: In the beginning he was given 27 sweets.

Step-by-step explanation: The most logical thing to do is to solve it backwards, that is, from what he had at the end of the third day up till the beginning of the first day.

On the third day he ate one-third and had 8 sweets left over. To determine how many he started with on the third day, let the total on day three be called a. If one-third of a is eaten, then the left over which is two-thirds is 8. That is;

8/a = 2/3

By cross multiplication we now have

8 x 3 = 2a

24/2 = a

a = 12

Let the number of sweets he had on day two be called b. If he ate one-third of b and he had 12 left over, then the two-thirds left over is 12 and we now have;

12/b = 2/3

By cross multiplication we now have

12 x 3 = 2b

36 = 2b

36/2 = b

b = 18

Let the number of sweets he had on day one be called x. If he ate one-third of x and he had 18 left over, then the two-thirds left over is 18, and we now have;

18/x = 2/3

By cross multiplication we now have

18 x 3 = 2x

54 = 2x

x = 27

Therefore Tim was given 27 sweets at the beginning.

Art [367]
The average volume if these eggs will be found as follows:
Volume of one egg is:
V=4/3πr²
V=4/3×π×(4.5/2)^3
V=71.57 cm³
Given that the turtle lays on average 113 eggs, thus the total volume of eggs will be:
(113×71.57)
=8187.41~8187 cm³
