<u>Answer:</u>

First mechanic worked for 20 hours and second mechanic worked for 15 hours.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Two mechanics worked on a car.  

The first mechanic charged $45 per hour, and the second mechanic charged $120 per hour.  

The mechanics worked for a combined total of 35 hours, and together they charged a total of $2700.  

We have to find how long did each mechanic work.

Let the time worked by 1st mechanic be t hours then time taken by 2nd mechanic will be 35 – t hours.

Now, according to given information,  

45 x t + 120 \times (35 – t) = 2700

45t + 120 \times 35 – 120t = 2700

-75t + 4200 = 2700

75t = 4200 – 2700

75t = 1500

t = 20

hence, 1st mechanic worked for 20 hours and 2nd mechanic worked for 35 – 20 = 15 hours.

The table below shows the relationship between the number of calories burned and the minutes of exercise.
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, number of calories 'C' burned is proportional to the number of minutes (m) given to the exercise,

C ∝ m

C = km

Where k is the proportionality constant.

From the table attached,

For C = 250 calories and m = 30 minutes,

250 = 30k

k = \frac{250}{30}

  = \frac{25}{3}

Therefore, equation representing this situation will be,

C = \frac{25}{3}m

Option B will be the correct option.
