Answer:

Rafael earns $375

Andrew earns $340

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we will set up a system of equations where r represents Rafael and a represents andrew.

r = a + 35

r + a = 715

Next, we substitute a + 35 for r in the second equation.

(a + 35) + a = 715 (combine like terms)

2a + 35 = 715 (subtract 35 from both sides)

2a = 680 (divide both sides by 2)

a = 340

To solve for r, we can plug 340 for a into either equation.

r = (340) + 35

r = 375

We can double check by plugging both values into the other equation.

375 + 340 = 715 (yes, it works!)

Brainliest, please :)

Multiply out the brackets:
4x - 1/4 > 12 - 2x

Add 2x to both sides:
6x - 1/4 > 12

Add 1/4 to both sides:
6x > 12 1/4

Divide both sides by 6:
x > 2.04

Change to a fraction form, therefore the answer is B
