Fran must work 17 hours per week to meet her goal.
c.
Fran must work 18 hours per week to meet her goal.
d.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer for the given problem above would be option B. Fran must work 17 hours per week to meet her goal. Why? According to the given details above, Fran works 15 hours per week for $225 which makes it $15 per hour. If she adds another 2 hours per week to make it 17 hours, then she will earn $255 dollars per week. Now, since she is saving $40 dollars plus the two hours which is $30, a total of $70 per week of savings, multiplied by 20 weeks, then, she will be able to get $1,400.
Answer 2
Answer:

Based on the number of hours Fran works and the amount she saves, the true statement is that b. Fran must work 17 hours per week to meet her goal.

What should Fran do to reach her target?

If Fran wants to save $1,400 after 20 weeks, the amount she should save weekly is:

= 1,400 / 20

= $70 per week

Her current wage rate is:

= 225 / 15

= $15 an hour

She currently saves $40 and can keep any amount she works over 15 hours. The number of hours she then needs to work over 15 hours is:

= (Target savings - Current savings) / Wage per hour

= (70 - 40) / 15

= 2 hours

Add this to her current hours:

= 15 + 2

= 17 hours per week

The radius of a circle is 6 yards. What is the circle's circumference? Use ​ ≈ 3.14 and round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

C = 37.68 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the circumference of a circle, you can use the formula C=2πr, where C is the circumference, π is a constant that is approximately equal to 3.14, and r is the radius. Plugging in the given value of r=6 yards, we get:

C=2×3.14×6

C=37.68

Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the circumference is 37.68 yards.

PLEASE HELP Solve |4x - 7| = 13.

Answers

 the absolut value signs mean that whatever is inside of them, you make it positive.  so 4x-7 could equal 13 or -13 or both

so 4x-7=13
add 7 to both sides
4x=20
divide both sides by 4
x=5
this is one solution

4x-7=-13
add 7 to both sides
4x=-6
divide both sides by 4
x=-1.5

x=5 or -1.5
|4x - 7| = 13\n4x-7=13 \vee 4x-7=-13\n4x=20 \vee 4x=-6\nx=5 \vee x=-(6)/(4)=-(3)/(2)

move constant to other side

divide by 4 to make leading coeficient 1
c^2-2c=1/4
take 1/2 of linear coeficient and square it
-2/2=-1, (-1)^2=1
add that to both sides
c^2-2c+1=1/4+1
factor perfect squaer and add
(c-1)^2=5/4
square root both sides
c-1=+/-(√5)/2
add 1
c=1+/-(√5)/2

Sue deposited $3000 in a savings account earning 2% interest over 8 years. What was the total interest Sue earned?

Answers

Original Interest: I = Prt
                           I = (3000)(0.02)(8)
                           I = (60)(8)
                           I = 480

Simple Interest: A = P(1 + rt)
                          A = 3000(1 + (0.02)(8))
                          A = 3000(1 + 0.16)
                          A = 3000(1.16)
                          A = 3480

Compound Interest: C = P((1 + r)^(n) - 1)
                                C = 3000(1 - 0.02)^(96) - 1)
                                C = 3000((0.98)^(96) - 1)
                                C = 3000(014 - 1)
                                C = 3000(-0.86)
                                C = -2580

Payment Amount: A = P(r(1 + r)^(n))/((1 + r)^(n) - 1)
                             A = 3000((0.02(1 + 0.02)^(96))/((1 + 0.02)^(96) - 1))
                             A = 3000((0.02(1.02)^(96))/((1.02)^(96) - 1))
                             A = 3000((0.02(6.7))/(6.7 - 1))
                             A = 3000((0.134)/(5.7))
                             A = 3000(0.024)
                             A = 72
