Answer:
520
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is
boys + girls = total
Boys = 442
Girls = 15% of the total
Therefore, substituting in, gives us:
442 + .15t = t, where t is total
Then 442 = .85t and
t = 520
= 7/8 − 1/5
= ((7 × 5) − (1 × 8)) / (8 × 5)
= (35 - 8) / 40
= 27/40
SO, 27/40 minutes are NOT spend on instructions.

Answer:
10.12
Step-by-step explanation:
5.6x2
2t + 5b = 20
8t + 3b = 29
Multiply the first equation by-4
-8t -20b = -80
8t + 3b = 29
-17b = -51
b = 3
Plug 3 in for b into either equation and solve for t.
2t + 5(3) = 20
2t + 15 = 20
2t = 5
Divide both sides by 2
t = 2.50
