Answer:
He needs to work for 40 whole hours
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are tasked with calculating the amount a Tv will cost Bob in terms of the number of hours he needs to work.
Let’s look at the total cost he has to pay.
a. $500
b. 8% tax = 8/100 * 500 = $40
c. He is paying 2 bills of $35 each making a total of 2 * $35 = $70
The total amount he is to pay is thus; 500 + 40 + 70 = $610
Let’s look at his income ;
a. Bonus $45
b. Birthday gift $85
The total amount of money he has asides his salary to offset the bill is 45 + 85 = $130
The balance to pay from his salary would be $610 - $130 = $480
The number of hours he has to work since he earns $12 per hour would be 480/12 = 40 hours of work
Answer: Green route = 5.8 miles
Blue route = 5.4 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the miles travelled for Green route be x
Let the miles travelled for Blue route be y
We can form an equation from the question given which will be:
8x + 9y = 95 ........ i
12x + 6y = 102 ......... ii
Multiply equation i by 12
Multiply equation ii by 8
96x + 108y = 1140 ....... iii
96x + 48y = 816 ....... iv
Subtract iv from iii
60y = 324
y = 324/60 = 5.4
Blue route is 5.4 miles.
Since 8x + 9y = 95
= 8x + 9(5.4) = 95
8x + 48.6 = 95
8x = 95 - 48.6
8x = 46.4
x = 46.4/8 = 5.8
Green route = 5.8 miles
