How do I solve this?

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

Addition of the blocks in first row is 60

a + a + a + 12 = 60

3a + 12 = 60

3a = 60 - 12

3a = 48

a = 16

For second row,

(b + 5) + (b + 5) + (b + 5) + (b + 5) = 60

4(b + 5) = 60

b + 5 = 15

b = 10

For third row,

(a + b) + c = (b + 5) + (b + 5) + (b + 5)

a + b + c = 3(b + 5)

16 + 10 + c = 3(10 + 5) [Since, a = 16 and b = 10}

26 + c = 45

c = 45 - 26

c = 19

For fourth row,

3c + d = 60

3(19) + d = 60

57 + d = 60

d = 60 - 57

d = 3

Joe earns $14 an hour and Blaine earns $18 per hour. Joe receives a raise of $1.75 every six months, and Blaine receives a raise

Katarina [22]

After 4 interval of six months, Joe to earn same hourly rate as Blaine

Solution:

Given that,

Amount earned by Joe = $ 14 per hour

Amount earned by Blaine = $ 18 per hour

Lets assume the number of six month intervals be "x"

Joe receives a raise of $1.75 every six months

Therefore,

Joe earning: 14 + 1.75(number of six month intervals)

Equation for Joe earning: 14 + 1.75x ------- eqn 1

Blaine receives a raise of $0.75 every six months

Therefore,

Blaine earning: 18 + 0.75(number of six month intervals)

Equation for Blaine earning: 18 + 0.75x ------------ eqn 2

The number of six-month intervals it will take Joe to earn the same hourly rate as Blaine,

Eqn 1 must be equal to eqn 2

$14+1.75x = 18+0.75x\\\\1.75x-0.75x = 18-14\\\\1x = 4\\\\x = 4$

Thus after 4 interval of six months, Joe to earn same hourly rate as Blaine.
