Using a system of equations, it is found that Debbie worked 45 hours during the week.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are:
- Variable x: Amount of hours worked by Juan.
- Variable y: Amount of hours worked by Debbie.
Juan and Debbie each earn 9 per hour at their "jobs", and earned a total of 765 for the week, hence:
9x + 9y = 765
Simplifying the expression by 9:
x + y = 85 -> x = 85 - y.
Debbie worked five hours more than juan during the week, hence:
y = x + 5.
Since x = 85 - y, we replace in the expression:
y = 85 - y + 5.
2y = 90.
y = 45.
Debbie worked 45 hours during the week.

Given:
The equation is:
Find-:
Binomials factor of the equation
Explanation-:
The quadratic equation,
Solve for factor
Then the factor is:
So, the factor is x + 4
You would solve this by writing it as a porpotion. It would be 25/100=161.25/x. Then, you would multiply the 100 and 161.25, which would get you 16125, then you would divide this by 25, which would get you your answer : $645.
