On Monday 4 bricklayers took 3 hours to lay a total of 4200 bricks.
lisabon 2012 [21]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

It will take 4.5 hours for two bricklayers to lay a total of 3150 bricks.

<h2>Why?</h2>

From the statement, we know that on Monday, bricklayers took 3 hours to lay a total of 4200 bricks.

So, we have that the rate of the four bricklayers is given by the following equation:

Production=Rate*Time\\\\Rate=\frac{Production}{time}

Rate=\frac{4200bricks}{3hours}=\frac{1400bricks}{hour}

Therefore, we have that the rate of the four bricklayers is 1400 bricks per hour, meaning that each bricklayer can lay 350 bricks per hour.

Now, to calculate how many hours it will take to the 2 bricklayers to lay a total of 3150, we need to divide the calculated rate (for bricklayers) by two, since there are only 2 bricklayers working on Tuesday.

So, calculating the time, we have:

Production=\frac{Rate}{2}*Time

3150bricks=\frac{\frac{1400bricks}{hour}}{2}*Time

3150bricks*2*\frac{1hour}{1400bricks}=Time

6300bricks*\frac{1hour}{1400bricks}=Time

Time=4.5hours

Hence, we have that it will take 4.5 hours for two bricklayers to lay a total of 3150 bricks.

Have a nice day!

I have three times as many cats as Alice but Bob has 7 less cats than me. In total we have 56 cats. How many cats do I have?
Nookie1986 [14]

The number of cats that you have is; 27 cats

<h3>How to calculate algebra word problems?</h3>

Let the number of cats alice has be x.

Since you have thrice the amount of cats that alice has, then you have 3x cats.

Bob has 7 less cats than you. Thus, bob has; 3x - 7

If they have a total of 56 cats, then;

x + 3x - 7 + 3x = 56

7x - 7 = 56

7x = 56 + 7

7x = 63

x = 63/7

x = 9

Thus, number of cats you have = 3x = 3 * 9 = 27 cats

© Given that R= 9x + 8y
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

-19/9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would plug in the numbers for y and r. Therefore, your equation should now be 5 = 9x + 24. Now you would put like terms on the same side. It now then look like -19 = 9x. You divide by 9 to get the x by itself. The answer should be x = -19/9.
