Answer:
(a) 
(b)300 Hours
(c)150 Hours
(d)Reduced and halved.
(e) 
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The number of hours worked is inversely proportional to the wage.
This is written as:
(b)If the student earns $8 an hour
w=$8
(c)When the wage per hour =$16
When w=$16
The number of hours reduced and is in fact halved.
(d)
The effect of raising the wage from $w to $2w per hour is that the number of hours required to work is reduced and exactly halved.
(e)The wage per hour is inversely proportional to the number of hours.
In fact,
Your answer is 38-8i because what you do is 1 times 3 and get 3 then 1 times 7i and get 7i then you do -5i times 3 and you get -15i then -5i times 7i and you get -35i2 and the square will cancel out the negative and make it 35 then add that to the 3 and you get 38 then take the -15i +7i and get -8 do your answer is 38-8i
The first thing you would do is substitute the 10 in for 'w' and 535 in for 'c'.
535 = 235 + 30(10)
535 = 185 + 35(10)
Then, you would just solve the equations.
535 = 235 + 30(10)
30(10) = 300
300 + 235 = 535
So the first equation is true, and we know for a fact that Larry's Landscaping charges $535 for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance for 10 weeks.
On to the next equation.
535 = 185 + 35(10)
35(10) = 350
185 + 350 = 535
So, the second equation is true also. And we also know for a fact that Joe's Landscaping charges $535 for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance for 10 weeks.
So, now that we know that they will end up charging the same amount of money for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance, the only answer that fits that is C. The cost for lawn maintenance is the same, $535, for both landscaping companies after 10 weeks.
Hope this helps!
