Step-by-step explanation + Answer:
x = 1st job
y = 2nd job
x + y = 22......x = 22 - y
7x + 8.25y = 171.50
7(22 - y ) + 8.25y = 171.50
154 - 7y + 8.25y = 171.50
-7y + 8.25y = 171.50 - 154
1.25y = 17.50
y = 17.50 / 1.25
y = 14 <== 14 hrs at the 8.25 per hr job
x + y = 22
x + 14 = 22
x = 22 - 14
x = 8 <=== 8 hrs at the 7 per hr job
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
=> 4x + 1 + 2x = 61
=> 6x = 61 - 1
=> 6x = 60
=> x = 60/6
=> x = 10
<u>Hence</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> value</u><u> of</u><u> x</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
I think isn't anyone of these alternatives because if we put number 15 in the place of y it is x-y=30. X-15=30
X=30+15=45.
X=45
