NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM Lesson 17 Date Name Lesson 17 Solutions Eric's father works two part-time jobs, onc in the morning and one in the afternoon, and works a total of 40 hours each 5-day workweek. If his schedule is the same each day, and he works 3 hours each morning, how many hours does Eric's father work each afternoon?

Eric's father work 5 hours each afternoon

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no. of hours Eric's father work each afternoon

He works for hours in morning each day = 3

He works for total hours in morning in 5 days=

He works for total hours in afternoon in 5 days=5x

We are given that he works a total of 40 hours each 5-day workweek.

ATQ

15+5x=40

5x=25

x=5

Hence Eric's father work 5 hours each afternoon

13

step-by-step explanation:

divide the cost of the total of sodas you bought by the cost of one soda, for example:

$24.57 divided by $1.89 is 13 which means you bought 13 sodas

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
