<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Jenna did 16 regular haircuts
Jenna did 8 haircuts with coloring

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
Assume that the number of regular haircuts is x and the number of haircuts plus coloring is y

<u>We are given that:</u>
<u>1- Jenna did a total of 24 clients, this means that:</u>
x + y = 24
This can be rewritten as:
x = 24 - y ...............> equation I

<u>2- regular haircuts cost $25, haircuts plus coloring cost $42 and she earned a total of $736. This means that:</u>
25x + 42y = 736 ..........> equation II

<u>Substitute with equation I in equation II and solve for y as follows:</u>
25x + 42y = 736
25(24-y) + 42y = 736
600 - 25y + 42y = 736
17y = 136
y = 8

<u>Substitute with y in equation I to get x as follows:</u>
x = 24 - y
x = 24 - 8
x = 16

<u>Based on the above:</u>
Jenna did 16 regular haircuts
Jenna did 8 haircuts with coloring

Hope this helps :)

A craftsman can sell 10 jewelry sets for $500 each. He knows
liraira [26]

Answer:15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Craftsman sell 10 Jewelry set for $500 each

For each additional set he will decrease the price by $ 25

Suppose he sells n set over 10 set

Earning=\text{Price of each set}\times \text{no of set}

Earning =(500-25n)(10+n)

E=5000+500n-25n^2-250n

differentiate to get the maximum value

\frac{dE}{dn}=-50n+250

Equate \frac{dE}{dn} to get maximum value

-50n+250=0

n=\frac{250}{50}

n=5

Thus must sell 5 extra set to maximize its earnings.

On this graph, 4:00 p.m. occurs at 16 hours after midnight, and 6:00 p.m. occurs at 18 hours after midnight. Which statements ar
KatRina [158]

Answer:

TRUE OPTIONS ARE:

<em>"The temperature increased until 4:00 p.m. "</em>

<em>"The temperature decreased after 6:00 p.m. "</em>

<em>"The temperature increased more quickly between 12:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. than before 12:00 p.m."</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>graph attached and complete question below:</em>

<em>Which statements are true about the temperatures Luis  recorded on the graph? Check all that apply. </em>

  • <em>The temperature increased until 4:00 p.m. </em>
  • <em>The temperature was not recorded between 4:00 p.m.  and 6:00 p.m. </em>
  • <em>The temperature decreased after 6:00 p.m. </em>
  • <em>The temperature increased and then decreased before  holding constant. </em>
  • <em>The temperature increased more quickly between 12:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. than before 12:00 p.m.</em>

<em />

Until 1600 hours, the graph increases, so we can say temperature increased until 4.00 pm (FIRST OPTION TRUE).

From 1600 to 1800 hours (4 - 6pm), the temperature stayed same (horizontal line). This doesn't mean the temperature wasn't recorded. (2nd OPTION FALSE).

After 1800 hours (6pm), the line goes downward, so temperature decreased after 6 pm. (3rd OPTION TRUE).

If you look at the temperature graph, we can see temperature increased, then increased more, then constant, then decreased. Thus the 4th option isnt true. (4th OPTION FALSE).

Before 12, the increase isn't as sharp as after 12. After 12 temperature increase has more slope, so this increase is more. (5th OPTION TRUE).

A computer store decides to increase the prices of all the items it sells by 15%. The store manager uses matrices to prepare the
Nitella [24]
The manager could perform scalar multiplication on Matrix A, using the scalar 1.15.

Increasing the price by 15% would mean we are taking 100% of the value + another 15%; 100+15 = 115%; 115% = 115/100 = 1.15.

Multiplying every value in Matrix A by 1.15 will give the price raised by 15%.
