A plumber has been called in to replace a broken kitchen sink. The material needed costs $341.25 and the total expected cost of the job is $424.09. How many hours will the plumber need to work in order to get the job completed at a rate of $20.79?
First, find the labor cost: 424.09โ341.25=82.84
Labor cost = $82.84
Now, divide the labor cost by the hourly rate:
82.84 / 20.79 โ3.99 about 4 hours

The length of the rectangle is twice its width. The perimeter of the rectangle totals 45 feet. What is the width of the rectangle?
Let the width = x feet.
Then the length = 2x feet (since it's twice the width).
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is: Perimeter=2(length+width)
Substituting:
45=2(2x+x)
45=2(3x) 45=6x
Now solve for x:
x=7.5

Daliah purchases eggs by the dozen for her two children. Each day, Zane eats 1/4 carton and Amare eats 1/6 carton. A carton of 12 eggs costs $1.65. How much does Daliah spend on eggs for her two children in 30 days?
Daily consumption: 1/4 + 1/6 = 5/12 So together they eat 5/12 x 30 eggs = 12.5 carton eggs of a carton each day.
Each carton costs $1.65. So: 12.5ร1.65=20.625
Daliah spends $20.63 (rounded to the nearest cent).

Miguel takes out a loan that adds interest each year on the initial amount. What is the interest Miguel will pay on the loan if he borrowed $5,000 at an annual interest rate of 4.5% for 15 years? (Use the formula ๐ผ = ๐๐๐ก, where ๐ผ is the interest, ๐ is the principal or initial investment, ๐ is the interest rate per year, and ๐ก is the number of years.)
Where:
P=5000
r=0.045 (4.5% as a decimal)
t=15
Substituting into the formula:
I=5000ร0.045ร15
Miguel will pay $3,375 in interest on the loan.

SurfPro Shop and The Surfer Store both sold surfboards for $350. In February, SurfPro Shop wanted to increase their profits so they increased the prices of their boards by 15%. When this increase failed to bring in more money, they decreased their price again by 10% in November. To beat their competitor who had increased prices, The Surfer Store decided to decrease their price of surfboards by 10% in March. However, when they started to lose money on the new pricing scheme, they increased the price of surfboards in November by 15%. If no other changes were made after November, which store now has the better price for surfboards? What is the difference between their prices?
SurfPro Shop:
Starting price: $350
February: increase by 15%
New price after 15% increase:
350+(0.15ร350)=350+52.50=402.50
November: decrease by 10%
New price after 10% decrease:
402.50โ(0.10ร402.50) = 402.50 โ 40.25 =$362.25
The Surfer Store:
Starting price: $350
March: decrease by 10%
New price after 10% decrease:
350โ(0.10ร350)=350โ35=315
November: increase by 15%
New price after 15% increase:
315+(0.15ร315) = 315+47.25 = $362.25
Joe was planning a business trip to Canada, so he went to the bank to exchange $200 U.S. dollars for Canadian (CDN) dollars. On the way home from the bank, Joeโs boss called to say that the destination of the trip had changed to Mexico City. Joe went back to the bank to exchange his Canadian dollars for Mexican pesos. What is the value of Mexican pesos that Joe has now?
Rate of $1.02 CDN per $1 U.S. Rate of 20.8 pesos per $1 CDN
Joe starts with $200 U.S.
The exchange rate is $1.02 CDN per $1 U.S.
200ร1.02=204 CDN dollars. Now he has 204 CDN dollars.
The exchange rate is 20.8 pesos per 1 CDN dollar. So: 204 ร 20.8 = 4243.2 pesos
Joe now has 4,243.20 pesos.

(DAILY DOUBLE) Amy and Eunice are participating in a bike-a-thon this weekend. Amy has 29-inch road bike wheels and Eunice has 26-inch mountain bike wheels, where the bike wheel measurements are based on their diameter. How many more revolutions will Eunice's bike need to make to reach the finish line as compared to Amy's bike?
1 mile = 5,280 feet
1 foot = 12 inches
5,280 ร 12=63,360 inches
63,360 ร 5 miles = 316,800 inches
Amy's bike circumference โ 91.106 inches 3468.49 revolutions to finish
Eunice's wheel circumference โ 81.681 inches 3878.5 revolutions to finish
410.01 more revolutions for Eunice to finish the race as compared to Amy. (without using the distance formula)
