the amount a gardener gets paid is directly proportional to the number of hours it takes for him to complete the job.
the gardener got paid £70 for a 12 hour job.
how much would he get paid for a job that took a total of 18 hours?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  £105

Step-by-step explanation:

The pay is proportional to the time, so working 18/12 = 3/2 times as long will gain the gardener 3/2 times the pay:

  3/2 × £70 = £105

He would get paid £105 for an 18-hour job.

__

Here are a couple of other solution methods.

as a proportion

  pay/hours = ?/(18 hours) = £70/(12 hours)

Multiplying by 18 hours, we get ...

  ? = £70×(18 hours)/(12 hours) = £70×(18/12)

  ? = £105 . . . . pay for 18 hours

He would get paid £105 for 18 hours.

__

as direct proportion equation

The equation for a directly proportional relationship is ...

  y = kx

If we let y represent pay and x represent hours, then we have ...

  70 = k(12)   ⇒   k = 70/12 = 35/6

Then for 18 hours, the pay is ...

  y = (35/6)x

  y = (35/6)(18) = 35(3) = 105

He would get paid £105 for 18 hours.

Answers

The equation would be y = kx with k being a constant.

Direct variation

Assuming the gravitational force is y and the mass of the body is x. y is directly proportional to the x.

Mathematically,

y = kx where k = constant.

If y = 19.6 Newtons and x = 2 kg, then

-6, 14, -26, 10x -4, -8x + -2x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

So F(x) is setting that the values before the lines are equal to x and should be applied to the problem. Dont forget PEMDAS with these tho, they'll try to trick u like that.

So for the first one, f(0) you plug 0 where the x's are.

1.) 8(0)^2 +2(0) -6

0 + 0 - 6 = -6

2.) 8(2) +2(2) - 6

16+ 4-6= 20 - 6= 14

3.) 8(-2) + 2(-2) -6

-16 + -4 -6 = -26

On the ones where they leave the x there, you just have to leave the x. But don't forget distribution tho.

4.) 8(x+1) +2(x+1) -6

8x +8 + 2x + 2 -6

10x +10 -6 = 10x -4

5.) 8(-x) + 2(-x) -6

-8x + -2x -6

Step-by-step explanation:

the given function is f(x) = 8x² + 2x -6

f(0) = 8(0)² + 2(0) -6 = -6

f(2) = 8 (2)² + 2 (2) - 6 = 30

f(-2) = 8 (-2)² + 2 (-2) - 6 = 22

f (x+1) = 8(x+1)² + 2 (x+1) -6

= 8(x² +2x +1 ) + 2x -4

8x² + 16x +8 +2x -4 = 8x² + 18x + 4

f(-x) = 8(-x)² + 2 (-x) - 6

= 8x² -2x -6
