Answer is 180- (60+70) = 50°
70-q-q-2q= 80
combine like terms first
so you get 70-4q= 80
subtract 70 on both sides and you get -4q= 10
divide -4 on both sides and you get q= 10/-4 or -2.5
(3+3i) - (13+15i)
=3+3i-13-15i
=-10-12i
Set up two equations:
1st: P (for Price family) + J (for Jenkins family) = 45 hours
2nd: 20P + 35J = 1200 liters
Rewrite the first equation as P = 45 – J
Replace P in the second equation:
20(45-J) + 35J = 1200
Simplify:
900 -20J + 35J = 1200
900 +15J = 1200
Subtract 900 from both sides:
15J = 300
Divide both sides by 15:
J = 300/15
J = 20
Jenkins used theirs for 20 hours
Price used theirs for 45-20 = 25 hours.
