$7h-5(3h-9)=-72

7h-15h+45=-72

-8h+45=-72

-8h+45-45=-72-45

-8h=-117

$
-8h/-8=-117/-8
h=117/8
Hope this helps :)

Answer:

(a) $s+g=450\\g=s+30$

(b) The graph is shown below.

(c) Seiji earned $ 210 and Gavin earned $ 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sum of earnings of Seiji and Gavin = $ 450

Gavin earns $ 30 more that that of Seiji.

(a)

So, as per question, if s and g are the amounts earned by Seiji and Gavin respectively, then;

$s+g=450\\g=s+30$

(b)

The graph is plotted using the x and y intercepts of each line.

For the line, $s+g=450$ , the x intercept is at $g=0$ . So, x intercept is (450,0). Similarly, the y intercept is when s=0, which is (0,450). Draw a line passing through these two points. The red line represents $s+g=450$ .

We follow the same process to plot the next line. The x intercept is at (-30,0) and y intercept is at (0,30). Draw a line passing through these two points. The blue line represents $g=s+30$ .

The graph is shown below.

(c)

From the graph, the point of intersection of the two lines gives the earnings of each of the persons.

The $x$ value of the point of intersection is the earning of Seiji which is $ 210 and the $y$ value is the earning of Gavin which is $ 240 as shown in the graph.
