Answer:

60 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's get all fractions equivalent.

1/5 7/12 1/20  We can make the common denominator 60

12/60 35/60 3/60

So these three parts of his week take up 50/60 or 5/6 of his time.  That means he only has 1/6 left.  The question also tells us after all of this he only has 10 hours left, so 1/6 = 10 hours.  If you have 1/6 of something how do you find one whole?  or 6/6.  You multiply it by 6.  so 10*6 = 60, which means every week he works 60 hours.

Solve the equation to find the value of m and n.<br> 2m + 3n = -5<br> 5m + 3n = 1
Leokris [45]

Answer:

m = 2, n = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2m + 3n = - 5 → (1)

5m + 3n = 1 → (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate n

2m - 5m = - 5 - 1

- 3m = - 6 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

m = 2

Substitute m = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for n

Substituting into (1)

2(2) + 3n = - 5

4 + 3n = - 5 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

3n = - 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

n = - 3

5x + 2y = -10<br> 3x + y = 66<br><br> please show work
liq [111]

Answer:

x=142, y=-360. (142, -360).

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2y=-10

3x+y=66

----------------

5x+2y=-10

-2(3x+y)=-2*66

-----------------------

5x+2y=-10

-6x-2y=-132

-------------------

-x=-142

x=142

3(142)+y=66

426+y=66

y=66-426

y=-360
