You have two unknown rates, so we need to develop two equations to solve for these unknowns (based on the information given on the problem statement):
5x + 10y = 725
x + y = 100
By substitution, we get:
5x + 10(100 - x) = 725
5x + 1000 - 10x = 725
-5x = 725 - 1000
-5x = -275
x = -275/-5 = 55
100 - 55 = 45
Thus:
The mechanic who worked for 5 hours charged his time at $55/hr, and the mechanic who worked for 10 hours charged his time at $45/hr.
To verify, plug and chug the results back into the original equations:
5(55) + 10(45) = 725
275 + 450 = 725
725 = 725 [OK]
55 + 45 = 100 [OK]

Step-by-step explanation:
what?
Answer: 70 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of kite = (one diagonal * another diagonal) / 2
10 * 14 = 140
140 / 2 = 70
Answer:
Cos A = (√51)/ 10
Step-by-step explanation:
sin is opposite/hypothenuse
cos is adjacent/hypothenuse
Pythagorus theorem says that c² = a² + b²
10² = 7² + b²
b² = 100 - 49
b = ±√51
It doesn't make sense for a length to be a minus number therefore, we will use +√51.
Cos A = (√51)/ 10
