Let us say that:

x = hours worked by Wolfgang

y = hours worked by Heinrich

 

So that:

x = y + 10

14 x + 12 y = 3520

 

By combining the two equations:

14 (y + 10) + 12 y = 3520

14 y + 140 + 12 y = 3520

26 y = 3380

y = 130 hours

x = y + 10 = 140 hours

 

<span>So Wolfgang worked 140 hours while Heinrich worked 130 hours.</span>

In parallelogram DEFG, DH = x + 3, HF = 3y, GH = 4x – 5, and HE = 2y + 3. Find the values of x and y.
marissa [1.9K]

Here, DH = HF 

x+3 = 3y

x = 3y-3   ----(I)

GH = HE

4x-5 = 2y+3

4x = 2y+8

Substitute value of x,

4(3y-3) = 2y+8

12y-12 = 2y+8

12y-2y = 12+8

10y = 20

y = 2

Now, substitute it in equation 1,

x = 3(2)-3

x = 6-3 = 3

So, your final answer is      x=3  & y=2
