Multiply each hourly rate by x ( time to complete the work) add it to the service call for each and then set the equations equal:
50 + 40x = 30 +45x
Subtract 30 from both sides:
20 + 40x = 45x
Subtract 40x from both sides:
20 = 5x
Divide both sides by 5
x = 4
The length is 4 hours.
Six point eight four.
(Note, you don't say, "Six point eighty-four" As it doesn't sound correct.
Cheers.
I would consider the number 2
For x > 3, values of the function f(x) = –(x – 3)2(x + 2) are negative. On this same interval, which statement correctly describes the values of the additive and multiplicative inverses?
