Answer: 52 minutes, 416 links

Step-by-step explanation:

8*20=160

13-8=5

160/5=32

Answer:

Emmanuel had worked for 52 minutes and had added 416 links.

(Khan Academy)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use t to represent the number of minutes Emmanuel had worked and l to represent the number of links added to the chain mail.

We have two unknown values, so we can create and solve a system of two equations that represent this context.

Modeling the context:

Emmanuel added 8 links a minute, so for Emmanuel:

l=8t

Allesia worked for 20 minutes less than Emmanuel did, so she worked t-20. Allesia added 13 links a minute, so for Allesia:

l=13(t-20)

Now we have the following system of equations to represent our situation:

l=8t

l=13(t-20)

Solving for t by substituting

Let's substitute the value of l from the second equation into the first equation.

l=8t

13(t-20)=8t

13t-260=8t

5t-260=0

5t=260

t=52

Allesia catches up to Emmanuel after Emmanuel had worked 52 minutes.

Solving for l by substituting

We have one unknown left. Let's substitute the value we got for  t back into one of the equations to solve for l.

l=8t

l=8(52)

l=416

Emmanuel had added 416 links.

Emmanuel had worked for 52 minutes and had added 416 links.
