X=hours master worked
y=hours apprentice worked
62x+40y=492
if master worked 3hours more than apprntice
x=3+y
sub 3+y for x
62(3+y)+40y=492
expand
186+62y+49y=492
186+102y=492
minus 186 both sides
102y=306
divide both sides by 102
y=3
sub back
x=3+y
x=3+3
x=6
master electrician worked 6 hours
6*62=372
master electrician earned $372
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-2+2x+1
5x+2x+1-2
7x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, transform 8 feet and 10 feet into inches so we can work with the same measurements
8 * 12 = 96 in
10 * 12 = 120 in
Next find the patio rectangle area.
96 * 120 = 11520 in^2
Now find the paving block area
4 * 8 = 32 in^2
Now, find out how many paving blocks will go into the patio rectangle area.
11520 / 32 = 360
The minimum number is 360 paving blocks
