Answer: She would accept the job for 3 hours minimum.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Tamar did the job for x hours,

Since, her charges for 1 hour = $ 8,

⇒  Her charge for x hours = 8x,

Also, the bus fare = $ 6,

hence, her total charge = Bus fare + Her charges for x hours

= 6 + 8x,

If the total charge is at least $30,

⇒ 6 + 8x ≥ 30

⇒ 8x ≥ 24

⇒ x ≥ 3

Thus, the minimum number of hours for a babysitting job she would accept = 3 hours.

ehidna [41]

Answer:

S={(heart), (diamond), (club), (spade)}

Step-by-step explanation:

In probability, a set is a well-defined collection of objects, product of an independent successful operation.

A sample space is the combination of all possible outcomes in an operation, so in this case, when we select one card and record the denomination, then we need to check what characteristic from the card are we looking for, from the problem we can see that is the denomination by itself, not the color, the number of the card, or anything else, and we only have 4 options of denomination so the sample space would be:

S={(heart), (diamond), (club), (spade)}

Tickets for a concert cost $2 for children, $3 for students, and $4 for adults. Ticket sales totaled $522 and 177 people attende
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Children = 51

Adults = 42

Students= 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Children = $2

Students = $3

Adults = $4

Total sales = $522

Total people who attended = 177

Adults =a

Students = s= 2a

Children = c

c+s+a = 177 (1)

2c+3s+4a=522 (2)

Substitute s=2a into the equations

c + 2a + a = 177

c + 3a = 177 (3)

2c + 3(2a) + 4a = 522

2c + 6a + 4a = 522

2c + 10a = 522 (4)

c + 3a = 177 (3)

2c + 10a = 522 (4)

Multiply (3) by 2

2c + 6a = 354 (3b)

2c + 10a = 522

Subtract (3b) from (4)

10a - 6a = 522 - 354

4a = 168

Divide both sides by 4

a= 168/4

= 42

a= 42

s= 2a

= 2(42)

= 84

s= 84

Substitute the value of s and a into (1)

c+s+a = 177 (1)

c + 84 + 42 = 177

c + 126 = 177

c = 177 - 126

= 51

c=51

Children = 51

Adults = 42

Students= 84

A forest ranger in the west observation tower spots a fire 41° north of east. Fifteen miles directly east, the forest ranger in
Radda [10]
Draw a horizontal line AB of length 15 miles to represent the positions of the two forest rangers.
Point A is to the left and point B is to the right. 
Complete triangle ABC so that m∠A = 41° and m∠B = 56°.
The point C represents the location of the fire.

Let x =  length of BC. It is the shortest distance from the forest ranger B to the fire because BC is opposite the smaller angle of 41°.

Because the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, 
m∠C = 180° - (41° + 56°) = 83°.

From the Law of Sines,
x/sin(41) = 15/sin(83)
x = 15*[sin(41)/sin(83)] = 9.915 mi

Answer:
The forest ranger closest to the fire is at a distance of  9.92 miles (nearest hundredth).

fgiga [73]

The scatter plot showing data gathered and line of best fit is attached below :

Answer:

69

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the regression model :

y = 1.73x + 0.0924

Where,

y = number of pink flowers

x = Red flowers

Slope = 1.73

Intercept = 0.0924

The number of pink flower that are predicted to bloom on a shrub of 40 red flowers :

Put x = 40 and calculate the value of y

y = 1.73(40) + 0.0924

y = 69.2 + 0.0924

y = 69.2924

Number of pink flowers = 69
