Answer:
9 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the equations: x is the amount of hours Amber worked and y is the hours Jake worked
8x + 8y = 120
y = 3 + x
Substitute the second equation into the first
8x + 8(3+x) = 120
Distribute
8x + 24 + 8x = 120
Combine like-terms
16x + 24 = 120
Subtract 24 on both sides
16x = 96
Divide 16 on both sides
x = 6 (hours Amber worked)
Plug in this x-value into on of the two equations. I will use the second
y = 3 + 6
y = 9
The numbers are both equal because, 6.80 is six and eight hundredths, and 6.8 is six and eight tenths. When writing decimals any zero added to the end of the number has no value, 8/10 as a fraction is equal to 80/100 if simplified, so Nicky and Marta wrote equal numbers. :)

Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an AP is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₅ is double a₇ , then
a₁ + 4d = 2(a₁ + 6d) , that is
a₁ + 4d = 2a₁ + 12d ( subtract a₁ from both sides )
4d = a₁ + 12d ( subtract 12d from both sides )
- 8d = a₁
The sum of n terms of an AP is
= 
[ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ] , substitute values
= 
( 2(- 8d) + 16d)
= 8.5(- 16d + 16d)
= 8.5 × 0
= 0
Answer:
44
Step-by-step explanation:
1) we know that opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent so
4x+28=10x+4
2) subtract 4 on both sides
4x+24=10x
3)subtract 4x on both sides
24=6x
4)divide by 6 on both sides
4=x
5)substitute for x
length of RS =10(4)+4
length of RD=44
