Answer:

Hamish earns $20 per hour, and Harry earns $26 per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Harry earns

$1+(5/4)•x and also (7/5)•x-$2

$1+(5/4)•x = (7/5)•x-$2

$1+$2= (7/5)•x-(5/4)•x

3=(7•4•x-5•5•x)/20

3=3x/20

3•20=3x

X=20, Hamish earns $20

Substitute x in one of the expressions

1+(5/4)•20=1+25=26, Harry earns $26

Two smoothies and an ice cream cone cost $7.50. Three smoothies and two ice cream cones cost $12. Calculate the cost of a smooth
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Smoothie = 3

Ice cream = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2s + i = 7.5

3s + 2i = 12

subtract the equations

(3s + 2i) - (2s + i) = s + i

s + i = 4.5

2s + i = 7.5,  so s must equal 3 (7.5 - 4.5)

If s = 3, then i is 1.5 (4.5 - 3.5)

To check, plug 3 and 1.5 into s and i.

2(3) + 1.5 = 7.5

6 + 1.5 = 7.5

7.5 = 7.5

3(3) + 2(1.5) = 12

9 + 3 = 12

12 = 12
