Solve\n5=.5H+.1H^2 and get 5 hours of work for 5 wages.\nSolve\n10.4=.5H+.1H^2 and get 8 hours of work for 10.40 wages.\n\nThere's a quadratic equation solver here if you need it: http://jblanco_60.tripod.com/

I can start you at $9.50 an hour.\n\nProve yourself and it goes up.

=5.2*5.2*10^-5\n=27.04^10^-5\n=2.704*10^-4

I saw in the News yesterday a refusal to a proposal to raise the minimum wage, which is currently 5.15 (Dollars) an hour. It is the National min. wage. Sorry to tell you this.

Everyone is working at the same time so add their work together like this:\n\n20pg/40m + 20pg/30m + 20pg/24m.\n\nReduce these down so you can get a common denominator and add them together:\n\n1pg/2m+ 2pg/3m + 5pg/6m = \n\n3pg/6m + 4pg/6m + 5pg/6m = 12pg/6m.\n\nThat's 2 pages a minute, or 20 pages in 10 minutes working together.

starting is about $30,000\nand overall they make about $40,000

rfamilymember is right and so is his method for getting the answer. It's $113.33\n\nJust multiply this by 0.075 to check. (That's 7.5 hundredths, in other words,7.5 per cent.)

The first one does 1/40 of the job per minute.\nThe second one does 1/x of the job per minute.\n\nThe first one worked for 10 minutes.\nThe second one worked for 10+50 = 60 minutes.\n\nOne job was completed.\n\nThat is all you need to know to solve for x.\n\nHere is your equation:\n10/40 + 10/x + 50/x = 1\n\nSolve for x as follows:\n10/40 + (10/x + 50/x) = 1\n10/40 + 60/x = 1\n60/x = 1 - 10/40\n60/x = 3/4\n60(4) = 3x\n240 = 3x\nx = 80\n\nIt would take printer2 80 minutes to do it alone.\n\nSanity check- plug your answer into the original equation:\nDoes 10/40 + 10/80 + 50/80 = 1?\nHmmm, looks like 10/40 = 20/80\nso (20 + 10 + 50)/80 = 1?\nYes.  So your answer is right.

About $25.00 per hour would be my guess.

$3.35\n\n On April 1, 1990 the federal minimum wage was increased from $3.35 per hour to $3.80; a year later it was increased to $4.25, for a combined increase in excess of 25 percent. The latter increase was the 17th since the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 established the first national minimum wage of twenty-five cents an hour.\n\nThe current minimum wage is $5.15 and was established in 1997.

im gonna work in cents cuz its ezier\n\nlet P be price of pears\nlet A be price of apples\n\n6P + 3A = 390\n3A = 390 - 6P\nA = 130 - 2P###Eq.1\n\n\n2P + 5A = 330###Eq.2\n\n\nsub Eq.1 into Eq.2\n2P + 5 (130-2P) = 330\n2P + 650 - 10P = 330\n-8P = -320\nP = 40 cents

We need x liters of 40% solution\nWe need (5-x) liters of 90% solution\n\nx(40/100) + (5-x)*(90/100) = 5 * (70/100)\n.40x + .90(5-x) = 5*.70\n.40x + 4.5 - .90x = 3.5\n.40x - .90x = 3.5 - 4.5\n-.5x = -1\nx = -1 / -.5\nx = 2\n2 gallons of 40% solution and 3 gallons of 90% solution.\n\nTo test our work:\n2 gallons of 40% solution gives you 2 * .40 gallons of alcohol = .8\n3 gallons of 90% solution gives you 3 * .90 gallons of alcohol = 2.7\n.8 + 2.7 = 3.5 total gallons of alcohol, with 1.5 gallons of water (I assume water since it's not mentioned what the other substance would be).\n\n3.5 / 5.0 = .70 or 70%

No. The first would be $0.008. The second would be $0.80

Algebraically speaking, x=the amount you would charge.\n\nx - 10% of x = 5000\nx - .1x = 5000\n.9x = 5000\nx = 5000/.9\nx = $5555.56 (rounded to nearest cent)

week salary X 52 = total salary\n\ntotal X 1.05 = new salary

Your looking for the time they work together so let (x) the time they work together .the rate should be A=15,B=5 then the work should be A=x/15 and B=x/5 since your looking for the time...solve for it cause I'm not giving you all the answers. it should look like this \n\nx/15+x/5= the time they work together...\n\n(Next time listen to your teachers)
