As a lifeguard, sara earns a base pay of $80 per day. if her day involves swim instruction, sara earns an additional 9t dollars, where t represents the number of hours she gives instruction and $9 is her hourly rate. the total amount sara earns in a day can be expressed as 80 + 9t.

(a) what does 9t represent in this context?

(b) what are the terms and the coefficients in the expression 80 + 9t

(c) rewrite the expression for 7 hours of swim instruction.

(d) how much will sara earn in all?

Step-by-step explanation:

Sara's base pay is $80

(a) The 9t represents the additional amount of money that she earns if she gives instruction for t hours. 9 stands for $9 per hour

b)The term in the expression is t which stands for the number of hours that she instructs. The coefficient is 9 which stands for the hourly rate

c) The expression for 7 hours would be

We will substitute t into 80 + 9t. It becomes

80 + 9×7

d) in all, she will earn

80 + 9×7 = $143

the answer is d. 75%

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752
