In 2019, the minimum wage in Arizona is $11 per hour. The total cost of renting a one-bedroom apartment in Tucson is $1410. Could people working 40 hours a week at the minimum wage afford to live there?

A. No, $1905.20 is not enough.
B. No, the total earned is $495.20.
C. Yes, they have $495.20 more than they need.
D. Yes, they have $1905.20 more than they need.

The answer is C. Yes, they have $495.20 more than they need.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; Every month in the year has at least 4 weeks in it including February so assume the people work for at least 4 weeks a day. Every month except February has 30 or 31 days. We calculate how much they earn in a day.

Money earned in a day = Money earned in a week / 7 = (40 × $11) / 7

                                        = $62.857

Step 2; We calculate how much a person working on minimum wage earns in a 30-day month.

Money earned in 30 days = ($62.857 × 30) = $1,885.714.

The cost of renting a space in Tucson costs $1,410 and as the people earn more than this we calculate the difference between the values.

Difference in values = $1,885.714 - $1,410 = $457.71.

Option C is the closest to the difference between the two values.

let's add {f(x)=x+1}f(x)=x+1 and {g(x)=2x}g(x)=2x together to make a new function.

f(x)+g(x) =(x+1)+(2x)=x+1+2x=3x+1

let's call this new function hh. so we have:

{h(x)}={f(x)}+{g(x)}{=3x+1}h(x)=f(x)+g(x)=3x+1

we can also evaluate combined functions for particular inputs. let's evaluate function hh above for x=2x=2. below are two ways of doing this.

method 1: substitute x=2x=2 into the combined function hh.

h(x)

h(2)

​    

=3x+1

=3(2)+1

=7

​ since h(x)=f(x)+g(x)h(x)=f(x)+g(x), we can also find h(2)h(2) by finding f(2) +g(2)f(2)+g(2).

first, let's find f(2)f(2):

f(x)

f(2)

​    

=x+1

=2+1

=3

​  

now, let's find g(2)g(2):

g(x)

g(2)

​    

=2x

=2⋅2

=4

​  

so f(2)+g(2)=3+4=\greend7f(2)+g(2)=3+4=7.

notice that substituting x =2x=2 directly into function hh and finding f(2) + g(2)f(2)+g(2) gave us the same answer!

the answer is c just got it on ed
