kirill [66]

Answer:

<h3>A. 1 hour</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

If one cleaning company's cost can be calculated by the expression 75 + 50x, where x is the amount of hours they spend cleaning and another cleaning company's cost can be calculated using the expression 50 + 75x, then to calculate how long each company will have to clean to cost the same amount, we will equate both expression of the company cost and solve for x as shown;

On equating:

75 + 50x,  =  75x + 50

collect like terms'

50x-75x = 50-75

-25x = -25

divide both sides by -25

-25x/-25 = -25/-25

x = 1

hence the number of hours each company will have to clean to cost the same amount is 1 hour

Answer: 1, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Number #1 = x
  • Number #2 = \frac{1}{4} x

\frac{1}{4} x+x=5\\\\\frac{1}{4} x+\frac{4}{4} x=5\\\\\frac{5}{4} x=5\\\\5x=4*5\\5x=20\\x=4

  • Number #1 = x = 4
  • Number #2 = \frac{1}{4} x = \frac{1}{4} *4=\frac{4}{4} =1
