5. How long will it take Greg to earn $500.00? Round to the nearest hour​

Mathematics

Answer:

61  hours

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

To find out the constant of proportionality k , divide the variable y (total earned) by the variable x (number of hours)

<em>Kevin's wage</em>

Take any point from the table

I take the point (2,16.50)

k=\frac{16.50}{2}=\$8.25\ per\ hour

The equation of the proportional relationship is equal to

y=kx

substitute the value of k

y=8.25x

For y=$500.00

substitute the value of y in the equation and solve for x

500=8.25x

Divide by 8.25 both sides

x=\frac{500}{8.25}=61\ h

A certain shade of green paint is made from 5 parts yellow mixed with three parts blue if 2 cans of yellow are used how many can
wariber [46]
Because the ratio of yellow to blue can be expressed as 5/3, you would solve the equation 5/3= 2/x. To solve, you would get x alone by cross multiplying and getting 5x=6. Divide both sides by 5 and get 6/5 or 1 and 1/5 cans of blue paint

Make y the subject of the formula x=a-2by squared
Dominik [7]

Answer:

y = ± \sqrt{\frac{a-x}{2b} }

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x = a - 2by² ( subtract a from both sides )

x - a = - 2by² ( multiply through by - 1 to clear the leading negative )

a - x = 2by² ( divide both sides by 2b )

\frac{a-x}{2b} = y² ( take the square root of both sides )

y = ± \sqrt{\frac{a-x}{2b} }

A building has an entry the shape of a parabolic arch 74 ft high and 28 ft wide at the base as shown below.
sergiy2304 [10]
The equation of a parabola with vertex at (h,k) is 
y=a(x-h)²+k

vertex isi at (0,0)

y=a(x-0)²+0
y=a(x)²
y=ax²
find a

we see that one point is (14,-74)
x=14 and y=-74

-74=a(14²)
-74=196a
divide both sides by 196
-37/98=a

the equation is 

y= \frac{-37}{98} x^2
