Answer:

5.3hrs or 5hrs 18mins

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to put the information given to us about the money they earn into an expression

Let x represent the number of hours Kini and Duke work and y represent the total amount of money they earn in a week.

y(kini) = 9x + 8

y(duke) = 7.5x + 16

Now we subtract the x values and the constant values

9x - 7.5x = 1.5x

16 - 8 = 8

Make these into an equation

1.5x = 8

Divide both sides by 1.5 so x(the number of hours the both work) can stand alone.

\frac{1.5x}{1.5} =\frac{8}{1.5}

x = 5.3hrs or 5hrs and 18 mins

V125BC [204]

Total students = 28

Students with brown eyes = 19

students wear glasses = 13

Not brown eyes or no glasses = 7


Not brown eyes = 28 - 19 = 9

Not wearing glasses = 28 - 13 = 15

Not brown eyes and wearing glasses = 15 - 9 = 6

Brown eyes and wearing glasses = 13 - 6 = 7 <==== answer

Factor −1/2−1/2 out of −1/2x+6.
pochemuha
That's unusual:  repetition:  -1/2 - 1/2.

Did you perhaps mean "Factor -1/2 out of (-1/2)x + 6?

Let's do that.  Let's rewrite 6 as (-1/2)(-12).

Then (-1/2)x + 6       (-1/2)x -(1/2)(-12)
         --------------  =  ------------------------  = x - 1/2
             -1/2                     -1/2

Hope that's what you wanted.  If not, please try to apply a similar approach to solving this particular problem.
