She worked as a carpenter for 12 hours and as a blacksmith for 18 hours.

Assuming you mean she earned $20 as a carpenter and $25 as a blacksmith per hour, with a total of 30 hours for $690,
let c represent carpenter hours and b for blacksmith hours.

20c + 25b = 690
c + b = 30
Subtract b from each side so that c = 30 - b
Plug this value into the first equation

20(30 - b) + 25b = 690
600 - 20b + 25b = 690
600 + 5b = 690
5b = 90
b = 18

To find c, plug this value of b into the other equation
c + 18 = 30
c = 12

Last time, one out of every 4 students in our class was absent. This time, after Jen came back, only one out of every 5 students
VMariaS [17]

Answer: There are 20 students and 4 students are not here today.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of students = 4

Let the number of students be 'x'.

Fraction of students absent = \dfrac{x}{4}

If the number of students = 5

Fraction of students absent = \dfrac{x}{5}

And Jen came back,

So, the fraction of student absent is also written as

\dfrac{x}{4}-1

According to question, it becomes,

\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{x}{4}-1\\\\\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{x-4}{4}\\\\4x=5(x-4)\\\\4x=5x-20\\\\4x-5x=-20\\\\-x=-20\\\\x=20

Hence, there are 20 students in our school.

And number of students are not here today is \dfrac{20}{5}=4
