Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number for hours afterward be represented as: x

The veteran tutor charges $15 for the first session plus $60 per hour afterward.

This is expressed as

$15 + $60 × x

15 + 60x

The new college graduate charges $45 for the first session plus $50 per hour afterward.

$45 + $50 × x

45 + 50x

The number of hours these two must tutor in order to earn the same amount of money is calculated as:

Veteran tutor = New college graduate tutor

15 + 60x = 45 + 50x

60x - 50x = 45 - 15

10x = 30

x = 30/10

x = 3 hours

Therefore, the number of hours these two must tutor in order to earn the same amount of money is 3 hours

The length of a rectangle is 3 feet less than twice the width of the rectangle. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 264 feet, f
Digiron [165]

L = 2w - 3

p = 264

2(L + w) = p

2(2w - 3 + w) = 264

2(3w - 3) = 264

6w - 6 = 264

6w = 270

w = 270/6

w = 90/2

w = 45

L = 2w - 3

L = 2(45) - 3

L = 90 - 3

L = 87

The length is 87ft, and the width is 45ft
