Answer:

Dorinda worked at Job A for 11 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

This is a word that leads to simultaneous.

Let us begin by modeling the system of equation from the problem

Let x and y be the number of hours worked in both jobs A and B respectively

Step two

x+y=30---------1

7.5x+8y=234.50----2

Solving the equations simultaneously we have

1. Multiplying equation 1 by 8 and equation 2 by 1 and subtracting from equation 2 to find y

8x+8y=240---------1

- 7.5x+8y=234.50----2

=0.5x=5.5

x=5.5/0.5

x= 11hrs

Substituting x=11 in equation 1 we can find y

11+y=30

y= 30-11

y= 19hrs

Use the construction in proof of the Chinese reminder theorem to find all solutions to the system of congruence:
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

17,101,185, 269,.... is the solution.

i.e. x≡17 mod(84) is the solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the system is

x ≡ 2 ( mod 3 )x ≡ 1 ( mod 4 )x ≡ 3 ( mod 7 )

Considering from the last as 7 is big,

possible solutions would be 10,17,24,...

Since this should also be 1(mod4) we get this as 1,5,9,...17, ...

Together possible solutions would be 17, 45,73,121,....

Now consider I equation and then possible solutions are

5,8,11,14,17,20,23,26,29,...,47,....75, ....

Hence solution is 17.

Next number satisfying this would be 101, 185, ...
