Answer:
answer above or below is right
Step-by-step explanation:
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.

F(x) = 1/(x+2) & g(x) = x/(x-3)
(f(x) + g(x) = 1/(x+2) + x/(x-3). Reduce to same denominator:
1/(x+2) + x/(x-3) =(x-3) + x(x-3)/(x+2).(x-3) ==> (x²+3x-3)/(x+2).(x-3)
1 and 5/16 pounds
Divide 7/8 with 2/3
20x + 25 = 165
x represents the number of bags. You can solve the equation to make sure the answer is 7.
20x + 25 = 165
Subtract 25 from both sides.
20x = 140
Divide 20 off of both sides.
x = 7
