Two mechanics worked on a car. the first mechanic worked for 5 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours. together they

charged a total of $1225. what was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates was $125 per hour?

Alright, lets get started.

Suppose first mechanic charges= x

So, second mechanic charges will be = (125 - x) (because total of their rates was 125)

first mechanic worked for 5 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours and together they charged a total of $1225

Means

5 x + 15 (125-x) = 1225

5 x + 1875 - 15 x  = 1225

1875 - 10 x = 1225

Adding 10 x in both sides

1875 - 10 x + 10 x = 1225 + 10 x \\1875 = 1225 + 10 x

Subtracting 1225 from both sides

1875 - 1225 = 1225  + 10 x - 1225\\650 = 10 x

Dividing 10 in both sides

\frac{650}{10}  =  \frac{10x}{10}

x = 65

For second mecahnics rate = 125 - 65 = 60

Hence The mechanic who worked 5 hours charged $ 65 per hour, the one who worked 15 hours charged $ 60 per hour: Answer

Hope it will help :)

Surface area and volume of cone
faust18 [17]

The surface area and the volume of the cone is 816.4 km² and 7536 km³ respectively.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

Volume is the capacity of an object.

To calculate the surface area and volume of the cone shown above, we use equation 1 and equation 2 respectively.

Formula:

  • S = πr√(r²+h²)............. Equation 1
  • V = πr²h.................. Equation 2

Where:

  • S = Surface area of the cone
  • V = Volume of the cone
  • r = Radius of the base of thye cone
  • h = Vertical height of the cone.

From the diagram,

Given:

  • r = 10 km
  • h = 24 km
  • π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1 and equation 2 respectively.

  • S = 3.14×10[√(24²+10²)
  • S = 31.4(√676)
  • S = 31.4×26
  • S = 816.4 km²

Also for the volume of tyhe cone

  • V = 3.14×10²×24
  • V = 7536 km³

Hence, The surface area and the volume of the cone is 816.4 km² and 7536 km³ respectively.

6x+1=4x+19 ...........
Luda [366]
Do I understand coorectly, you have the following equation

6x+1=4x+19

and you want to know what x is?

first, let's put all the expressions with x on one side and all else on the other side:

6x-4x=19-1

and calculate this 2x=18

and divide by 2:

x=9

and this is the answer!
