Answer:

1. Dave worked for 34 hours.

2. Perimeter of the rectangle is 172 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Determination of the hours Dave worked.

Let D represent Dave.

Let M represent Mike.

Let J represent John.

Tota time worked by Dave, Mike and John is 56 hours. This can be written as:

D + M + J = 56 ..... (1)

Dave worked 6 more than 4 times as many hours as Mike. This can written as:

D = 6 + 4M .....(2)

John worked 6 less than 3 times as many hours as Mike. This can be written as:

J = 3M – 6 ........ (3)

Substituting the value of F and J into equation 1, we have:

D + M + J = 56

D = 6 + 4M

J = 3M – 6

6 + 4M + M + 3M – 6 = 56

6 – 6 + 4M + M + 3M = 56

8M = 56

Divide both side by 8

M = 56/8

M = 7

Substitute the value of M into equation (2) to obtain the value of D.

D = 6 + 4M

M = 7

D = 6 + 4(7)

D = 6 + 28

D = 34

Therefore, Dave worked for 34 hours .

2. Determination of the perimeter.

Length (L) = 64 cm

Width (W) = 22 cm

Perimeter (P) =?

P = 2(L + W)

P = 2 (64 + 22)

P = 2 (86)

P = 172 cm

Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 172 cm

Solve each system by elimination.<br> 1) 10x + 7y=9 -4x - 7y=9
stellarik [79]

Answer:

(3, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When asked to solve by elimination, you put them on top of one another, like you're going to add it.

10x + 7y = 9

-4x - 7y = 9

See that 7y? You can cancel those out because one is negative, and one is positive. So those are gone. You finish adding the rest of the numbers as usual and solve for x.

6x = 18

x = 3

Take x, and plug it into either equation to find y.

10(3) + 7y = 9

7y = -21

y = -3

(3, -3)

Hope this helped!

What is the answer to -3+p=?
nata0808 [166]
There is not an answer to an expression. 

-3+p is an expression, unless there was an equal sign and a sum at the end, that is when we can solve for the variable x. 

-3+p simply equals -3+p
