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

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The probability you see a dolphin or a whale on both days is 0.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the brochure claims an 80% chance of siting a dolphin or a whale.

The provided claims can be written as: 80% or 0.80

Let say first day you see a dolphin or a whale and same happen on the next day.

Thus, the probability is:

0.80 × 0.80 = 0.64

Probability of see them on both days is 0.64

Hence, the probability you see a dolphin or a whale on both days is 0.64
