Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
2Y = 10
10 - 6 = 4
x = 2
4/2 = 2
Answer:
73
292
173
Step-by-step explanation:
x = first number
4x = second number
100 + x = third number
x + 4x + 100 + x = 538
6x + 100 = 538
6x + 100 - 100 = 538 - 100
6x = 438
6x/6 = 438/6
x = 73
Check:
73 + 4(73) + 100 + 73 = 538
73 + 292 + 173 = 538
538 = 538
Eric took 20 hours to do the job alone.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
<u>Given </u>:
- Total work = 75 packages
- Joe took 5 hours to complete the total work.
The amount of work Joe alone can do per hour = 75/5 = 15 packages.
The amount of work Joe and Eric together do per hour = 75/4 = 18.75
The amount of work Eric alone can do per hour = 18.75 - 15 = 3.75
The time Eric took to complete the entire work = 75 / 3.75 = 20 hours.
