An employment agency specializing in temporary construction help pays heavy equipment operators

Mathematics

The answer is:
 Number of heavy equipment operators = 22
 Number of general laborers = 11
 The question can be solved by proposing a system of equations, where:
 Ep= number of heavy equipment operators.
 Tg= number of general labored.
 We have two equations, the first is the cost of hiring heavy equipment operators and general workers.
 
 135Ep+89Tg=3949.
 
 
  The second is the number of operators of heavy equipment and general workers that will be contracted. The total is 33.

 Ep+Tg=33.

 Solving the system of equations we have the answer is:

 Ep=22.
 Tg=11.

Answer:
Number of heavy equipment operators hired were 22
Number of general laborers hired were 11

Explanation:
Assume that number of heavy equipment operators hired is x and that number of general laborers is y.

We are given that:
1- Total number of hired people is 33. This means that:
x + y = 33
This can be rewritten as:
x = 33 - y ...........> equation I
2- heavy equipment operators are paid $135, general laborers are paid $89 and that the total payment was $3949. This means that:
135x + 89y = 3949 ............> equation II

Substitute with equation I in equation II and solve for y as follows:
135x + 89y = 3949
135(33-y) + 89y = 3949
4455 - 135y + 89y = 3949
506 = 46y
y = 506 / 46
y = 11

Substitute with y in equation I to get the value of x as follows:
x = 33 - y
x = 33 - 11
x = 22

Hope this helps :)

How to multiply fractions with a mixed number?
Nady [450]
Okay here's an example so if we have 2, 3/2*1/2 we convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions. So in order to solve a mixed number you add the denominator, numerator and whole to get 7/2*1.2
So Multiple
7/2*1/2
Refine the fractions
7/2*2
Multiple the numbers 2*2=4 to get
7/4
and that equals 1, 3/4

Can someone help me with #s 16 18 19 20 I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Masteriza [31]

Answers & Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>PEMDAS (Parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction)</h2>

Now let's solve your problems!

<h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>16.</h2>

First, we see if there are any parentheses. Since there are no parentheses, we will evaluate the exponent 3² first.

After this, our problem now looks like this:

<h2>\frac{41 - 9}{6 * 3 -26}</h2>

Next, since multiplication (not subtraction) is next on the list, we will evaluate 6 × 3, which equals 18.

After that, we will subtract:

41 - 9 = 32

18 - 26 = -8

We now have 32/-8 or 4/-1 or simply -4.

<h2>The answer is: -4</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>17.</h2>

With this, one, note the parentheses. This means that we will do these operations first.

(21 - 4²) = 5

(3 + 1) = 4

The problem now looks like this:

\frac{5 * 4}{8^{2}-44}

Next, we do the exponents:

8² = 64

After that, we do the multiplication of 5 x 4, which equals 20.

We now have 20/64 - 44, which simplifies to 20/20 or 1/1 or 1.

<h2>The answer is: 1</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>18.</h2>

Again, we see parentheses, so that means we need to do these operations first.

(6² - 20) = 16

We now have:

48 ÷ 16 + 5

48/16 = 3 and 3 + 5 = 8

<h2>The answer is: 8</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>19.</h2>

Here, we see an exponent 3³, so we'll need to evaluate this first.

3³ = 27

We now have:

4 × 27 ÷ 18 + 14

4 × 27 = 108

108/18 = 6

And finally:

6 + 14 = 20

<h2>The answer is: 20</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>20.</h2>

Here we again see the parentheses, which means we need to evaluate the subtraction first.

3 - 8 = -5

We now have:

11 + 2 (-5)

2 × -5 = -10

11 + -10 (same as 11 - 10) = 1

<h2>The answer is: 1</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2><em>I AM ALWAYS HAPPY TO HELP :)</em></h2>
