The tip up the hill takes 600/76, 3.4 minutes, and the tip dwn takes 600/35,.70 minutes. The ttal tip takes 3.4 +.70 = 5. minutes, which is appximately 5 minutes, 7 secnds. Cect answe: e. Angle 4 and the angle which measues 30 ae supplementay angles. S, 80 = 30 + m 4 and m 4 = 50. Since the sum f the angles f a tiangle is 80, m 3 + m 4 + 48 = 80. Thus, m 3 + 50 + 48 = 80 and m 3 = 8. 3. Cect answe: b. The length f the ladde need t be at least 0 inches. 0, which is.03 feet, feet, sin 65 4. Cect answe: c.

Let x epesent the numbe f hus pe week Billy wked at the pl, and y epesent the numbe f hus pe week Billy mwed lawns. Then, x + y = and x = 3y. Substitutin esults in 3y + y =, y = 5.5. Placing that value back int the fist equatin esults in x + 5.5 =, x = 6.5. Thus, Billy wked 5.5 hus a week mwing lawns and 6.5 hus pe week life guading at the pl. Multiplying by thei espective wages gives 5.5($8.30) + 6.5($6.50) = $5.90, the amunt eaned pe week. 3. Cect answe: e. d 5 4 dy dy 6x ( 3x 4y = 7) 6x 0y = 0 = at (4,-) is. 4 dx dx dx 0y 3.
