Answer:
21.25 multiplied by 4, which is 85. Final Answer : 85 centimeters long
Step-by-step explanation:
21.25 is the same as 21 1/4.
So WX is 7y +4 and XY is 21, and when you add those lines you get the whole thing, which is 12y so write that like an equation
12y = 7y+4+21
12y = 7y+25
5y = 25
y = 5
They are both equivalent to 1, so they are equal.
Using a system of equations, it is found that Debbie worked 45 hours during the week.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are:
- Variable x: Amount of hours worked by Juan.
- Variable y: Amount of hours worked by Debbie.
Juan and Debbie each earn 9 per hour at their "jobs", and earned a total of 765 for the week, hence:
9x + 9y = 765
Simplifying the expression by 9:
x + y = 85 -> x = 85 - y.
Debbie worked five hours more than juan during the week, hence:
y = x + 5.
Since x = 85 - y, we replace in the expression:
y = 85 - y + 5.
2y = 90.
y = 45.
Debbie worked 45 hours during the week.
