Tyrone earns x dollars per hour.
Sean earns $4.50 per hour more than Tyrone, so he earns x + 4.5 dollars per hour.
In 8 hours, Tyrone earns 8x.
In 8 hours, Sean earns 8(x + 4.5).

8x + 8(x + 4.5) = 284

8x + 8x + 36 = 284

16x + 36 = 284

16x = 248

x = 15.5

Answer: Tyrone earns $15.50 per hour.

Check:
Sean earns $15.50 + $4.50 = $20 per hour.
In 8 hours, their combined salary is 8(15.5 + 20) = 8(35.5) = 284.
Our answer is correct.

Solve using substitution. <br> 7x-4y=-12<br> 9x-4y=-20
MrRissso [65]

Answer:y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Solve for xx in 7x-4y=-127x−4y=−12.

x=\frac{4(y-3)}{7}

x=

7

4(y−3)

​

2 Substitute x=\frac{4(y-3)}{7}x=

7

4(y−3)

​

 into 9x-4y=-209x−4y=−20.

\frac{36(y-3)}{7}-4y=-20

7

36(y−3)

​

−4y=−20

3 Solve for yy in \frac{36(y-3)}{7}-4y=-20

7

36(y−3)

​

−4y=−20.

y=-4

y=−4

4 Substitute y=-4y=−4 into x=\frac{4(y-3)}{7}x=

7

4(y−3)

​

.

x=-4

x=−4

5 Therefore,

\begin{aligned}&x=-4\\&y=-4\end{aligned}

​

 

x=−4

y=−4
