The function is given by

y=45,200 + 1,900x

and is of the form y = mx+b , where m is the rate of change and b is the fixed value ( or we can say initial value)

Now when we compare we get m = 1,900 for our problem .

So the population increases every year by 1,900.

An experienced carpenter can frame a house twice as fast as an apprentice. Working together, it takes the carpenters 2 days. How

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

6 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken by Carpenter working alone = $C$ days

Then time taken by apprentice alone = Twice as that of taken by Carpenter = 2 $C$ days

Time taken working together = 2 days

Work done in one day working together = $\frac{1}{2}$

Work done in one day by Carpenter working alone = $\frac{1}{C}$

Work done in one day by apprentice working alone = $\frac{1}{2C}$

Work done in one day by Carpenter working alone + Work done in one day by Carpenter working alone = $\frac{1}{C}$ + $\frac{1}{2C}$ = Work done in one day working together = $\frac{1}{2}$

$\dfrac{1}{C}+\dfrac{1}{2C}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2+1}{2C}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\Rightarrow C = 3\ days$

Time taken by Carpenter alone to complete the work = 3 days

Time taken by Apprentice alone to complete the work = 3 $\times$ 2= 6 days

jasenka [17]

Answer:

a. 30%

b. $893.59

$\frac{(351.10-x)}{893.59}\times 100\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Given that the carpet costs $427.35, the labor costs $212.52 and other flooring supplies costs $75.

#To get the percent of the flooring bill that will go towards the cost of labor:

$\% labor\ cost=\frac{labor \ cost}{Total \ flooring \ cost}\times 100\%\\\\=\frac{212.52}{427.35+212.52+75}\times 100\%\\\\=\frac{212.52}{714.87}\times 100\%\\\\=29.73\%\approx30\%$

Hence, labor costs 30% of the total flooring costs.

b.The total flooring costs is :

$F_c=212.52+427.35+75\\\\=714.87$

Given that she spends 25% more on furniture than on flooring, we multiply the flooring cost by 125% to get the furniture costs:

$Furniture \ Cost= Flooring \ C\ost \times 125%\\\\=714.87\times 1.25\\\\=893.59$

Hence, she spends $893.59 on furniture.

c.To get what percentage of furniture cost was the night stand.

-Given the total furniture cost is $893.59:

Let x be the cost of the dresser and y the cost of the nightstand;

$x+y=Furniture\ cost -Bed \ cost\\\\x+y=893.59-558.49=351.1\\\\y=351.1-x$

The percentage is then calculated as:

$\% cost \ of \ nightstand=\frac{cost \ of \ nighstand}{Furniture \ Cost}\times 100\%\\\\=\frac{351.10-x}{893.59}\times 100\%\\\\=\frac{(351.10-x)}{893.59}\times 100\%$

Hnece the percentage cost of the night stand is $\frac{(351.10-x)}{893.59}\times 100\%$

Which congruence theorem can be used to prove △WXS ≅ △YZS? Triangles W X S and Y Z S are connected at point S. Angles W X S and

iVinArrow [24]

Point S makes the two connected angles the same. They both have right angles.

And one side of each is congruent.

This means you know 2 angles are the same and one side is the same.

You would use ASA (Angle, Side, Angle)
