This could by seen as a ratio:
4:5
Add up the ratio. Then divide the money earned, by the ratio.
4 + 5 = 9
31.50 / 9 = 3.5
Then you times the individual hours by this.
4 x 3.5 = $14
5 x 3.5 = $17.5
So Jan earned $14
And Ted earned $17.50

Answer: 18
Step-by-step explanation: 16/2 = 8 - 6 = 2 x 10 = 20 - 2 = 18, sorry if i'm incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have xy = 28, x² + y² = 65 and x³ + y³ = 407.
Since (x + y)(x² - xy + y²) = x³ + y³,
x + y = (x³ + y³)/(x² + y² - xy)
= (407) / [(65) - (28)]
= 407 / 37
= 11.
Hence the sum of the numbers is 11.
