Ruby's hours will represent x+6
Svetlana's hours will represent 4(x+6)
Issac will represent x.
The equation would read:
x+(x+6)+(4(x+6))=126
x+x+6+4x+24=126
6x+30=126
Subtract 30 from both sides.
6x=96
Divide 6 on both sides to get x by itself.
x=16
So:
Issac worked 16 hours
Ruby worked 22 hours
Svetlana worked 88 hours.
To check your answer, plug in the values:
16+22+88=126
126=126
Hope this helps.
Answer:
7x + 6 = 55; x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
"six more than" -> +6
"product of seven and a number" -> 7x
7x + 6 = 55
7x = 55 - 6
7x = 49
x=7
Answer:
72.25
Step-by-step explanation:
12.5 x 8.5 = 106.25
5 x 6.75 = 33.75
106.25- 33.75 = 72.25
It appears as if 12cm is half the length of the side so we can assume that the total length of one side is 24cm.
The area of a square is given by the equation 
where s is the length of the side.
A=576
The area of this square is 576cm2.
Hope this helps!
