We know that
<span>An electrician can wire a house in ------------> 20 hours
so
100%----------------> 20 hours
 X-------------------> 12 hour
x=12*100/20----> x=60%

that means 
</span><span>the apprentice in 12 hours complete the (100-60)----> 40%

</span>the apprentice in 12 hours complete -------> 40%
x hours------------------------------------> 100%
x=100*12/40-----> x=30 hours

the answer is
30 hours

Which graph represents the solution set of the system of inequalities?
vivado [14]
Solve first for the solution of the inequalities. This can be done by replacing first the inequalities sign with the equal sign. 

x + y = 1
2y = x - 4

The values of x and y from the system of linear equation are 2 and -1. This means that the intersection of the lines should be at point (2, -1). 

Substitute 3 to x and determine the value of y from the second inequality.
 2y ≥ x - 4

Substituting,
  2y ≥ 3 - 4, y ≥ -1/2

Hence, the solution to this item should be the fourth one.
