So firstly let’s set a ‘algebra’
Let’s make the hours working after school as ‘x’
So Chase works totally 18 hours last week
So the hours he works on Saturday is (18-x)
And given the salary of working after school is $8 per hour,and the salary of working on Saturday is $10,and he earned $156
So with these we can write a equation
8x+10(18-x)=156
solve it,
8x+180-10x=156
-2x=-24
X=12
as I said x is the hour working after school
The hour working on Saturday should be 18-x
18-12=6
Answer is 6

A VW Bug is driving north on a straight two-lane road at a constant 38 mph and a Chevy Impala is driving south at 29 mph on the
vitfil [10]

Those two vehicles are chewing up a lot of ground. Do you drive? I know it's a stupid question. Every American drives, but I have to check. When you see a car coming towards you, does it look like it's going extremely slow, so that 9 could be the answer? Or does it look extremely fast so that 67 could be the answer? I think you should be looking at fast. I live in the country so when something comes towards me I take note of it. So you should be thinking the Impala sees the bug as going north and very fast..

B

Note. The 9 would come up when someone was passing you and they were going 9 mph faster than you were going. If you were going 50 mph and someone passed you at 59 mph. it would appear to you that they were only going 9 mph. Next time you encounter this on the road, see if you agree that that is the way it works.
