Let the number of hours he worked at his weekday job be x and the number of hours he worked at his weekend job be y, then

x+y=40\ .\ .\ .\ (1) \\  \\ 20x+18y=770\ .\ .\ .\ (2) \\  \\ (1)\times18\Rightarrow18x+18y=720\ .\ .\ .\ (3) \\  \\ (2)-(3)\Rightarrow2x=50 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=50/2=25

From (1): 25 + y = 40
y = 40 - 25 = 15.

Therefore, Beneio worked for 25 hours at his weekday job and 15 hours at his weekend job.

Solve for p.
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

p = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

5p - 10 = + 4(1 + 3p)

first get rid of the bracquetes:

5p - 10 = + 4*1 + 4*3p

5p - 10 = + 4 + 12p

subtract left and right of = sign by 5p

5p -5p - 10 = + 4 + 12p -5p

0 - 10 = + 4 + (12p -5p)

subtract left and right of = sign by 4

-10 -4 = 4 -4 + ( 7p )

re arrange

7p + 0 = -14

divide left and right of = sign by 7

7/7 p = -14/7

p = -2

What is the equation of a line which includes points (-5, 5) and (2, 5)?
sveta [45]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The equation of the line which includes the points (-5,5) and (2,5) is:

y=5

<h2>Why?</h2>

To find the line which includes the points (-5,5) and (2,5) we can use the following equation:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}*(x-x_1)

So, using the points (-5,5) and (2,5), we have:

y-5=\frac{5-5}{2-(-5)}*(x-(-5))

y-5=\frac{0}{2+5}*(x-(-5))

y-5=0*(x+5)

y-5=0

y=5

We have that the equation of the line which includes the points (-5,5) and (2,5) is:

y=5

Have a nice day!

Solve x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0
Georgia [21]

Answer:

x = - 8, x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

{x}^{2}  + 2x - 48 = 0 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 8x - 6x - 48 = 0 \\  \\ x(x + 8) - 6(x + 8) = 0 \\  \\ (x + 8)(x - 6) = 0 \\  \\ x + 8 = 0 \:  \: or \:  \: x - 6 = 0 \\  \\ x =  - 8, \:  \:  \:  \: x = 6 \\
