Answer:
Total number of employees = 86,891 employees
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = total number of employees
26.7% of x = 23,200
26.7/100 * x = 23,200
0.267 * x = 23,200
0.267x = 23,200
x = 23,200/0.267
x = 86,891.385767790
approximately 86,891 employees
Total number of employees = 86,891 employees
You can start by subtracting different equations from each other.
3x + 2y + 3z = 1
subtract
3x + 2y + z = 7
2z = -6
divide by 2
z = -3
add the following two expressions together:
3x + 2y + z = 7
3x + 2y + 3z =1
6x + 4y + 4z = 8
subtract the following two expressions:
6x + 4y + 4z = 8
5x + 5y + 4z = 3
x - y = 5
^multiply the whole equation above by 3
3x - 3y = 15
subtract the following two expressions:
3x - 3y = 15
3x + 2y = 10
-5y = 5
divide each side by -5
y=-1
take the following expression from earlier:
x - y = 5
substitute y value into above equation
x - - 1 = 5
2 negatives make a positive
x + 1 = 5
subtract 1 from each side
x = 4
Therefore x = 4, y = -1, z = -3
I checked these with all 3 equations and they worked :)
(it's quite complicated, comment if you don't understand anything) :)
Answer:
Lillian worked 7h and Jacob worked 6h
Step-by-step explanation:
the number of hours Lillian worked are x (h)
the number of hours Jacob worked are y (h)
(0 < x,y < 13)
=> Lilian ironed: 25x (shirts)
Jacob ỉroned: 20y (shirts)
because Lillian and Jacob worked a combined 13 hours and ironed 295 shirts, we have:

so Lillian worked 7h and Jacob worked 6h
