We will call:
M=Mari
J=Jen

Initial equations:

M=2J
M+J=480
(the fact that they work 20 hours a week is not needed in this problem information)

Plug in:
2J+J=480
3J=480
J=160

Jen makes $160 a week.

Therefore:

M=2J
M=2(160)
M=320

Mari makes $320 per week
Jen makes $160 per week

Answer:

third side = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

let the third side be x, then

x² + 40² = 41², that is

x² + 1600 = 1681 ( subtract 1600 from both sides )

x² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{81} = 9

The third side is 9
