The question being the case, the equation is: 8x + 6y = 136.
Where x is the number of hours spent on job A and y is the number of house spent on job B. Now to solve for both variables.
Notice that if you add x and y, you should get a total of 20 hours so x + y = 20.
To get x, x = 20 - y. Replace the answer on the original equation gives you 8(20-y) + 6y = 136.
160 - 8y + 6y = 136
160 - 2y = 136
-2y = 136 - 160
-2y = -24
<span>Solve for y by dividing both sides of this equation by -2 to get y:
y = 12
Replace y on the x + y = 20 equation to get x.
x + 12 = 20
x = 20 = 12
x = 8
Therefore:
x = 8 hours on job A
y = 12 hours on job B

A human has 1 head and 2 legs.
A horse has 1 head and 4 legs.
Let's make two equations from what we know.
There were a total of 74 heads.
There were a total of 196 legs.
Let's call humans 'x' and horses 'y'
The total number of heads were 74.
Humans have 1 head, and so do horses.
Our first equation is:
x + y = 74
There were a total of 196 legs.
Humans have 2 legs, and horses have 4 legs.
Our second equation is:
2x + 4y = 196
Our two equations are:
x + y = 74
2x + 4y = 196
We need to solve this system of equations to find out how many humans and horses were at this racing event.
Multiply the first equation by 2.
2(x + y) = 2(74)
2x + 2y = 148
Our two equations are:
2x + 2y = 148
2x + 4y = 196
Subtract the first equation from the second equation.
2x - 2x + 2y - 4y = 148 - 196
2y - 4y = 148 - 196
-2y = - 48
Divide both sides by -2
y = 24
That means that there were 24 horses.
We can plug back in y = 24 into our first equation to find out how many humans there were.
x + y = 74
x + 24 = 74
x + 24 - 24 = 74 - 24
x = 50
There were 50 humans.
At the horse racing event, there were 24 horses and 50 humans.
Your final answer is B. 24 horses and 50 humans.
I believe the answer is 9
This is because in order to take out a three, There would need to be 2 3's and 9 is 3x3, so the answer is 9.

Answer: (-5, 2)</h3>
Explanation:
We multiply the y coordinate by -1/3 because of the notation (-1/3)*f(x). Recall that y = f(x). The x coordinate stays the same.
