Answer:
380 = 40h +200 (equation)
4 1/2 hours (solution)
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost is the sum of labor cost and parts cost. The labor cost depends on the number of hours.
__
An equation describing Terry's charges might be ...
total = labor cost + parts cost
380 = 40h +200 . . . . . . labor was $40 per hour for each of h hours
180 = 40h . . . . . . subtract 200
4.5 = h . . . . . . divide by 40
Terry was charged for 4 1/2 hours of labor.

Answer:
the equations are dependent; both describe the line y = 2x -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Remove the common factor of 5 from the first equation and you have ...
2x -6 = y
Subtract 6 from the second equation and you have ...
2x -6 = y
The two equations are the same, so describe the same line. The solution set is all points on that line. The equations are dependent, and have an infinite number of solutions.
