Answer:

The answer to your question is  a) C + J + S = 80

                                                     b) C = J + 5

                                                      c) S = 45 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To represent the number of hours that they work together, just add the variables and equal them to 80.

            Carlito  +  Juan  +  Sara  = 80

               C + J + S = 80                                 Equation l

b) Juan worked 5 hours more than Carlito

              Juan = Carlito + 5

                  J = C  + 5                                     Equation ll

c) Hours worked by Sara

                  S = 3J                                          Equation lll

                  C = J - 5

Substitute equation ll and lll in equation l to find J

                J - 5 + J + 3J = 80

                5J = 80 - 5

                5J = 75

                  J = 75/5

                  J = 15

-Find S

                S = 3(15)

                S = 45 hours

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C represent the number of hours that Carlito worked.

Let J represent the number of hours that Juan worked.

Let S represent the number of hours that Sara worked.

1) The equation that would represent the fact that altogether they worked 80 hours is

C + J + S = 80

2) The equation that would represent the fact that Juan worked 5 more hours than Carlito is

J = C + 5

3) Sara worked 3 times as many hours as Juan. It means that

S = 3J

Substituting J = C + 5 into S = 3J, it becomes

S = 3(C + 5)

S = 3C + 15

Substituting S = 3C + 15 and

J = C + 5 into C + J + S = 80, it becomes

C + C + 5 + 3C + 15 = 80

C + C + 3C + 5 + 15 = 80

5C + 20 = 80

5C = 80 - 20

5C = 60

C = 60/5

C = 12

S = 3C + 15 = 3 × 12 + 15

S = 51 hours

Sara worked for 51 hours

Plan A charges $20 a month with a $10 sign up fee. Plan B changes a $20 sign up fee but $15 each month.
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

X- 12 months, Y- 450 in total

Step-by-step explanation:

unsure what you would want for the answer to be but,

if plan a were to charge you for a year 20 x 12 would be 240 dollars a year + 10 would be 250 the total cost.

plan b, same thing 15 x 12 is 180 + 20 which would be 200 the total cost.

if you wanted both months added together, it would be 420 since x was 12.

and both sign up fees would be 30 dollars, if they needed a sign up fee for each month as well, it would be 360 per.

the total cost for all of plan a and b together would be 450 because you added the 30 dollar fee to the total of each plan.

P.S.- sorry if its long

larisa [96]

0.17x = 0.12x +18

subtract 0.12x from each side

0.05x = 18

divide both sides by 0.05

x = 18/0.05 = 360

 360 minutes would be the answer
