Mary works as a gardener. On her last job she charged $60 for plants and $500 for 20 hours of work. The equations represent the total price, y, charged by different gardeners after x hours of work. Click on all the equations that represent gardeners who charge a higher hourly rate than Mary. A. Y = 15x + 60 B. Y = 32x + 35 C. Y = 21x + 75 D. Y = 18x + 80 E. Y = 35x + 30 F. Y = 40x + 40

Step-by-step explanation:

First find out how much Mary was charging per hour:

= 500 / 20

= $25 per hour

She charges $60 for plants.

In a linear equation of the form: y = mx + c, the m represents the variable cost which in this case is the $25 per hour and the c is the fixed cost which is the $60.

Her rate as a linear equation would be:

y = 25x + 60

Looking a the value of the m of other gardeners will tell you who is charging higher hourly rates with anything above $25 doing so.

The gardeners with higher values of m than Mary are:

B. Y = 32x + 35

E. Y = 35x + 30

F. Y = 40x + 40

yes

step-by-step explanation:

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
