Let the amount Tom does = x
Then Larissa’s time would be 3x( 3 times the amount of Tom)
And Neal would also be 3x
The total of the 3 is 84 hours so as an equation you have:
X + 3x + 3x = 84
Combine like terms
7x = 84
Divide both sides by 7
X = 84/7
X = 12 hours
Tom = x, so Tom exercised for 12 hours.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution by substitution method
3x-4y=8
and 18x-5y=10
Suppose,
3x-4y=8→(1)
and 18x-5y=10→(2)
Taking equation (1), we have
3x-4y=8
⇒3x=4y+8
⇒x=(
4y+8)/
3 →(3)
Putting x=
(4y+8
)/3 in equation (2), we get
18x-5y=10
18(
(4y+8)
/3) -5y=10
⇒24y+48-5y=10
⇒19y+48=10
⇒19y=10-48
⇒19y= -38
⇒y=-
38
/19
⇒y= -2→(4)
Now, Putting y=-2 in equation (3), we get
x=4y+8
x=
(4(-2)+8)
/3
⇒x=
(-8+8)/
3
⇒x=
0/
3
⇒x=0
∴x=0 and y= -2
Answer:
2.
5 x 5 = 25
4 x 4 = 16
25 + 16 = 41
You need to square root but it is already included
Hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A.
Amount of money earned = Regular rate per hour *
Number of working hours
M = 12 x
Part B.
Amount of wages earned = Regular rate per hour *
Maximum number of regular working hours + Overtime rate per hour * Excess
working hours
T = 12 * 30 + 16 * y
T = 360 + 16 y
or
T = 16 y + 360
Part C.
Given T = 408, find y:
408 = 16 y + 360
y = 3 hrs
Therefore the total hours Gary worked that week
is,
<span>x + y = 30 + 3 = 33 hrs </span>
<span>(x = 30 since that is the maximum limit for regular working
hours)</span>
