) Jonathan’s weekly pay this year is £960.
This is 20% more than his weekly pay last year.
Tess says “This means Jonathan’s weekly pay last year was £768”.
Tess is wrong.
a) Explain why
b) Work out Jonathan’s weekly pay last year.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

800 euros

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's start by finding Jonathan's weekly pay

So, we know that 960 euros is (120/100) times the pay that he got last year.

So we multiply 960 by the reciprocal of 120/100 which is 100/120 or simplified to 5/6.  960*5 = 4800.  4800/6=800.

So Jonathan's weekly pay was 800 euros last year.

Tess is wrong because she multiplied 960 by 4/5 because she thought this meant that Jonathan got paid 4/5 of what he gets per week this year which is what she thinks he got paid last year. You are supposed to multiply it by 6/5 rather than 4/5 because 20 percent more than 100 is 6/5 rather than 4/5.

what does 10 with a little 4 on the top mean​

Answers

Answer:

They are called exponents, they multiply the number itself (the bigger number) so the answer to 10 with a little 2, means 10x10 or "100"

Answer:

Using exponents is a short way of saying “multiply the number by itself.” The little number up above tells you how many times to multiply the number by itself. So 10 2 means 10 x 10, or 100. ... (Each time you have an exponent of 10, the little number up above tells you how many zeros there will be in the answer).

*PLEASE ANSWER* What is the area of minor sector AOB?

Answers

Answer: Approximately 13 square units (choice B)

===========================================================

Explanation:

The given reflex angle is 215 degrees. A reflex angle is anything over 180 degrees, but less than 360. Subtract 215 from 360 to get the measure of angle AOB

angle AOB = 360 - 215 = 145

angle AOB = 145 degrees

We'll use this later.

Now find the area of the full circle. Use the formula A = pi*r^2. The radius is r = sqrt(10) which can be found through the distance formula or the pythagorean theorem. You want to find the length of either OA or OB to get the radius.

The area of the circle is

A = pi*r^2

A = pi*(sqrt(10))^2

A = 10pi

This is the exact area of the full circle, but we want just a fractional portion of it. Specifically we want the pie slice that is formed by angle AOB

area of sector AOB = [ (angle AOB)/360 ] * (area of full circle)

area of sector AOB = (145/360)*10pi

area of sector AOB = 145pi/36

area of sector AOB = 145*3.14/36

area of sector AOB = 12.647 approximately

area of sector AOB = 13 square units approximately, after rounding to the nearest whole number

Bonnie volunteers to bring bags of candy to her child's class for the Halloween party this year. She buys one bag of candy A
containing 120 pieces of candy, one bag of candy B containing 440 pieces of candy, and one bag of candy C containing
520 pieces of candy. She needs to use all the candy to create identical treat bags. How many treat bags can Bonnie make so
that each one has the same number and variety of candy? How many of each type of candy will be in each bag?

Answers

Answer: Bonnie can make 40 treat bags. Each treat bag has three pieces of Candy A, 11 pieces of Candy B, and 13 pieces of Candy C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there's no number of student's in her child's class, I did this:

I found the common factors of 120, 440, and 520. And found out that the GCF (greatest common factor) is 40.

120: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 30, 40, 60, 120.

440: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 20, 22, 40, 44, 55, 88, 110, 220, 440.

520: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 13, 20, 26, 40, 52, 65, 104, 130, 260, 520.

After finding out that the GCF is 40, I took the numbers 120, 440, and 520, and divided them by 40.

120 divided by 40 = 3

440 divided by 40 = 11

520 divided by 40 = 13

Therefore Bonnie can make 40 treats bags with no candy pieces left behind.

You want to distribute 7 candies to 4 kids. If every kid must receive at least one candy, in how many ways can you do this?

Answers

Answer:

  20  

Step-by-step explanation:

Once you give 1 candy to each of the 4 kids, you will have 3 remaining. The number of ways those can be distributed to 4 kids is given by ...

  (n+k-1)C(n)

where n is the number of candies, and k is the number of kids. "aCb" is the number of ways a can be taken b at a time:

  aCb = a!/(b!(a-b)!)

For n=3 and k=4, this is ...

  (3+4-1)C(3) = 6C3 = 6!/(3!·3!) = 20

There are 20 ways to distribute 7 candies to 4 kids so that each kid receives at least one.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 yellow marbles and 2 blue marbles = 6 marbles

This is 2/3 of the marbles since 1/3 are green

2/3 of the total marbles are 6 marbles

2/3 * m = 6

m = 6 * 3/2 = 9

1/3 m = green marbles = 1/3 *9 = 3

A theater offered pre-sale tickets two days before a showing. On the first day, 12
adult and 5 children's tickets were purchased for $114.50. On the second day, 24
adult and 8 children's tickets were purchased for $218. Find the price of an adult
ticket and a children's ticket.

Answers

Answer:

Adult ticket: $7.25

Children's ticket: $5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where a represents the cost of an adult ticket and c represents the cost of a child's ticket:

12a + 5c = 114.5

24a + 8c = 218

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -2:

-24a - 10c = -229

24a + 8c = 218

Add them together:

-2c = -11

c = 5.5

Now, plug in 5.5 as c in an equation to find a:

12a + 5c = 114.5

12a +5(5.5) = 114.5

12a + 27.5 = 114.5

12a = 87

a = 7.25

Answer:

Adult Ticket is $7.25 and Child Ticket is $5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make 2 equations out of the given information.

a = adults

c = children

Equation 1: 12a + 5c = 114.5

Equation 2: 24a + 8c = 218

We can now multiple Equation 1 by 2 so that we are able to eliminate the value of a.

New Equation 1: 24a + 10c = 229

Equation 2:         24a + 8c = 218

Now we can use subtraction and get a new equation: 2c = 11

Then divide and get:                                                          c = 5.5

The cost for a child's or "children's" ticket is $5.50 each. We can fill in the value of the childs ticket and get the value of an adult's ticket as $7.25.

Therefore, Children's Ticket costs: $5.50 & Adult's Ticket costs: $7.25

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form of a line is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

The point requested is (3,-4)

y - -4= m ( x-3)

y +4= m ( x-3)

The slope of the line  is positive since it goes from the top left to the bottom right

The slope can be found from (0,5) and (3,-4)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (5 - -4)/(0-3)

    = (5+4)/(0-3)

    = 9/-3

    = -3

y +4= -3 ( x-3)

The slope in all answer choices is 3 or -3.

Since the line is going down, the slope is going to be negative (-3).

Point slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x2)

We are given a point in the question so use it to fill in the equation.

y + 4 = -3(x - 3)

One pump can fill a reservoir in 60 hours. Another pump can fill the same reservoir in 80 hours. a third can empty the reservoir in 90 hours. If all three pumps are operating at the same time, how long will it take to fill the reservoir?

Answers

one pump, let's call it A, fills the reservoir by 1/60 every hour. Now, B fills it by 1/80 every hour. C empties it by 1/90 every hour. All three are on, so now we combine them into one function: t(1/60 + 1/80 - 1/90) = 1, where t = the time it takes to fill it, and 1 is just our "reservoir finally filled" marker.

isolate t onto one side and we see t = 720/13 exactly, or approximately 55.38 hours. let me know if this is the wrong answer but I'm pretty sure it is correct!

Answer:

1/time needed = 1/time of 1st pump + 1/time of 2nd pump - 1/time of 3rd pump

1/t = 1/t1 + 1/t2 - 1/t3

1/t = 1/60 + 1/80 - 1/90

1/t = 12/720 + 9/720 - 8/720

1/t = 13/720

t = 720/13 hours = 55.38 hours = 55 hours 23 minutes

A. prohibiting the passing of labor bills B. prohibiting child labor in the District of Columbia C. prohibiting people from employing laborers D. prohibiting compensation to injured laborers Message Regarding Labor Legislation (March 25, 1908) by Theodore Roosevelt I call your attention to certain measures as to which I think there should be action by the Congress before the close of the present session. There is ample time for their consideration. As regards most if not all of the matters, bills have been introduced into one or the other of the two Houses, and it is not too much to hope that action will be taken one way or the other on these bills at the present session. In my message at the opening of the present session, and, indeed, in various messages to previous Congresses, I have repeatedly suggested action on most of these measures. Child labor should be prohibited throughout the Nation. At least a model child-labor bill should be passed for the District of Columbia. It is unfortunate that in the one place solely dependent upon Congress for its legislation there should be no law whatever to protect children by forbidding or regulating their labor. I renew my recommendation for the immediate reenactment of an employers' liability law, drawn to conform to the recent decision of the Supreme Court. Within the limits indicated by the court, the law should be made through and comprehensive, and the protection it affords should embrace every class of employee to which the power of the Congress can extend. In addition to a liability law protecting the employees of common carriers, the Government should show its good faith by enacting a further law giving compensation to its own employees for injury or death incurred1 in its service. It is a reproach to us as a Nation that in both Federal and State legislation we have afforded less protection to public and private employees than any other industrial country of the world.
