Answer:
29 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
$5 plus 29 miles
Equation 1: x + y = 40 ; therefore y = 40 - x
Equation 2: 25x + 15y = 900
Find x first:
25x + 15 (40 - x) = 900
25x + 600 - 15x = 900
10x = 900 - 600
x = 300÷10
x = 30 hours Chris needs to spend for tutoring job
y = 40 - 30
y = 10 hours Chris needs to spend for referencing job
Use the Order of operations but don't use pemdas...use GEMS :)
That would be 30 minutes since 2 1/2 hours equals 150 minutes, a fifth of 150 is 30.
