Using a system of equations, it is found that Debbie worked 45 hours during the week.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are:

  • Variable x: Amount of hours worked by Juan.
  • Variable y: Amount of hours worked by Debbie.

Juan and Debbie each earn 9 per hour at their "jobs", and earned a total of 765 for the week, hence:

9x + 9y = 765

Simplifying the expression by 9:

x + y = 85 -> x = 85 - y.

Debbie worked five hours more than juan during the week, hence:

y = x + 5.

Since x = 85 - y, we replace in the expression:

y = 85 - y + 5.

2y = 90.

y = 45.

Debbie worked 45 hours during the week.

There are three exams in your linear algebra class, and you theorize that your score in each exam (out of 100) will be numerical
Romashka [77]

Answer:

a) 40 hours

b) 60 hours

C) 100 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

0.2a + 0.3b+0.5c = 76

Hence: 0.2* (0.2 λ) +0.3*(0.3 λ )+0.5*(0.5 λ ) = 76

0.38 λ =76

λ = 76/0.38 =200

Thus : 40, 60, 100
