Stefan's family rented a rototiller to prepare an area in their backyard for spring planting. The rental company charged an init

ial fee of $43 with an additional fee per hour. If they paid $64 after renting the rototiller for 7 hours, what was the hourly fee? If h represents the hourly fee, which equation models this problem? What was the hourly fee for the rototiller?

Answer: The hourly charge for the rototiller is $3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h denote the hourly rate for the rototiller rental.

The rental provider imposed a base fee of $43 in addition to a charge per hour. Assuming the rototiller was rented for x hours, the cost incurred would total

43 + hx.

If they paid $64 for 7 hours of rental, the equation representing this situation would be

43 + 7h = 64.

Resolving gives us 7h = 64 - 43 = 21.

Therefore, h = 21/7 = $3.

Answer:

$3 per hour, 64 = 7h + 43

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the cost for the 7 hours of rototiller usage, subtract 43 from 64, resulting in 21. Dividing this 21 by 7 gives the hourly rate, which is 3. Thus, if h is the hourly cost, the formula can be expressed as 64 = 7h + 43, indicating that the total charge of 64 includes the rental cost for 7 hours plus the initial fee of 43.

The perimeter of angle ABC is 98 centimeters. If the radius circle A is twice the radius of circle C and the radius of circle B
tester [12383]

Answer: Circle C has a radius of 7 cm.

Explanation:

Referring to the illustration below:

Let's denote the radius of circle C as x.

Circle A's radius can be represented as 2x.

Circle B's radius can be expressed as 4x.

The length of side AC in triangle ΔABC becomes x + 2x = 3x.

For side BC of triangle ΔABC, we get 4x + x = 5x.

Similarly, for side AB of triangle ΔABC, it is 4x + 2x = 6x.

Given that the perimeter of triangle ΔABC totals 98 cm.

Remember, the perimeter refers to the total length around the triangle.

Hence, Perimeter = 6x + 5x + 3x = 98 cm.

Thus, 14x = 98.

From this, we find x = \frac{98}{14}.

Therefore, x = 7.

This concludes that the radius of circle C is 7 cm.

PIT_PIT [12445]

Detailed explanation:

Hello!

Stratified sampling involves the categorization of the population into subgroups based on pre-established criteria for the study. These subgroups consist of homogeneous units concerning the relevant characteristics. In this instance, individuals in the groups will represent only one of the two potential opinions (support or not support) and not both.

The researcher determines the sample size desired, considering several factors such as finances, material availability, and accessibility to experimental subjects (for instance, if they are endangered species, larger sample sizes may not be feasible).

One might conduct proportionate stratified sampling by selecting a proportion of respondents who answered "yes" along with those who answered "no."

In this sampling method, taking a specific proportion from each subgroup allows for a more straightforward extrapolation of results to the overall populations. For example, if you needed a sample size of n = 20, each stratum would ideally contain half, meaning 10 from the “yes” group and 10 from the “no” group.

I hope this is helpful!

babunello [11817]
A. The order in which you define the variables isn't fixed. For the sake of this discussion, let's define them like this:

x = Number of bookshelves
y = Number of tables

B. Due to the total number of items to produce, we have the following inequality based on those variables.

x + y > 25

Additionally, you can create a second inequality concerning your budget for materials.

20x + 45y < 675

Moreover, you should also add that both values must not be negative, since you can't produce negative tables.

C. By analyzing the constraints and solving the system, you will find that the feasible region contains 4 vertices.
