This is simple algebra :)
First, we can write the question as an algebraic equation.
Given that Doug spent 40 more hours than Laura, we can represent Laura as (x) and Doug as (x+40).
"Doug and Laura spent a combined 250 hours." So we can write this as
(x) + (x+40) = 250
Now simplify:
2x + 40 = 250
Solve x by subtracting 40 from both sides of the equation:
2x = 210
Therefore:
x = 210/2
= 105
So Laura (x) spent 105 hours!
Answer:
$216
Step-by-step explanation:
This question does not involve interest, so all we need to do is to divide the total of payments ($10,368) by the number of payments (48):
$10,368
--------------- = $216/month
48

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope but a different y intercept. A line with the same slope and y int as another one will be the exact same
Slope in standard form is -a/b, so your slope is 2/3 and your y int is -3
For example:
y=2/3x+1
