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.

What is the solution for the system of equations?
Arte-miy333 [17]
The solution is at what point the two lines intersect.
Plug y into the other equation to get: 5x-4(5-3x)=-3
Multiply it out: 5x+12x-20=-3
Combine like terms and add 20 to both sides: 17x=17
Divide both sides by 17: x=1
Now plug the x value back into any equation to get the y value.
So you get y=5-3(1) --> y=2
The solution is (1, 2)

What is the simplified expression for 4 to the power of negative 3 multiplied by 3 to the power of 4 multiplied by 4 to the powe
blondinia [14]

Writing out: 4 to the power of negative 3 multiplied by 3 to the power of 4 multiplied by 4 to the power of 2 whole over 3 to the power of 5 multiplied by 4 to the power of negative 2

(4^(-3) * 3^4 * 4*2) / (3^5 * 4^(-2))

= (4^(-3+2) * 3^4) * 3^(-5) * 4^2

= 4^(1) * 3^(-1)

= 4/3

Please refer to the figure attached for the diagram of this problem.

Steps needed to find the width of the field (CD):

First, we should note that angle d would be equal to 27 degrees because there are two parallel lines that are cut by a transversal. Furthermore, angle a would be equal to 5 degrees since we just need to subtract 27 from 32.

We then subtract 27 and 5 from 180 to get angle c. 180-27-5=148. Angle c is therefore 148 degrees.

Next, we need to find angle e which is just the supplementary of angle c. Angle e therefore measures 180-148=32 degrees.

For the next step we use sine law to find the length of segment AC:
\frac{sin(32)}{800} = \frac{sin(90)}{AC}
AC=1509.66

Lastly, we need to utilize the sine law again to find the length of segment CD or the width of the field:
\frac{sin(27)}{1509.66} = \frac{sin(5)}{CD}
CD=290

ANSWER: The width of the field is 290 ft.
