C. 1/5 is the fraction of employees that work part time.
Answer : 7 or 7/1
step by step explanation:
Answer:
25 and 21 hours respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hours worked by each welder be x and y respectively.
They worked a total of 46 hours. This means :
x + y = 46 hours.......(I)
Now, given their hourly charges, since we have the total amount of money realized, we can make an equation out of it. This means:
34x + 39y = 1669........(ii)
We then solve both simultaneously. From I, x = 46 -y
We can substitute this into ii
34(46 -y) + 39y = 1669
1564 -34y + 39y = 1669
5y = 1669 - 1564
5y = 105
y = 105/5 = 21
x = 46 - y
x = 46 - 21 = 25 hours
The numbers of hours worked by the welders are 25 and 21 respectively
For this question, it would be most effective to use an algebraic expression to more easily show what the question is asking. If we use the variable "k" to show the distance in km that he cycled on Sunday, we know that the amount he cycled on Saturday equals k + 12, and the amount that he cycled on the weekend should be the amount of Saturday plus the amount of Sunday. If we write this as an equation we say:
k + k + 12 = 38
=> 2k + 12 = 38
Now we can just rearrange and solve for k:
=> 2k = 26
=> k = 26/2 = 13
Therefore Patrick cycled 13km on Sunday
To solve the answer, we just add 12km to the value for Sunday like so:
12 + 13 = the amount he cycled on Sunday
Hope this helped, remember to please try and understand the maths as well as the answer :))
