Answer:
-40, - 42 and -44
Step-by-step explanation:
The fastes way here is trying. Lets pick a number, intelligently, and then work on it.
We need three even integers that sum -126. These will be all negative numbers and as they are consecutive they will be very similar (for example, -33 and -35 and -37). Thus, lets start by 1/3 of -126, which is -42:
(-42)+ (-44) + (-46) = - 132, so -42 no.
Lets go a step back: -40
(-40) + (-42) + (-44) = -126
So, the integers are -40, -42 and -44
I think it’s 21:9 I don’t know but I think that would be the answer
Set of equations that can be used to calculate rate for each plumber:
2A+8B+8C = 1,400 --- (1)
4A+7B+10C = 1,660 --- (2)
3A+9B+9C = 1,660 --- (3)
------------------------------------
2*(1) - (2)
------------------------------------
4A+16B+16C = 2,800
4A+7B+10C = 1,660 -
------------------------------------
9B+6C = 1,140 --- (4)
------------------------------------
3(2) -4(3)
-----------------------------------
12A+21B+30C = 4,980
12A+36B+36C = 6,600 -
-----------------------------------
-15B-6C = -1,620 --- (5)
------------------------------------
(4) + (5)
------------------------------------
9B+6C = 1140
-15B-6C = -1620 +
-------------------------------------
-6B = -480 => 6B = 480 => B = 480/6 = 80
-------------------------------------------------------
Using (4), 9(80)+6C = 1140
720+6C = 1140 => 6C = 1140-720 = 420 => C = 420/6 = 70
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using (1), 2A+8(80)+8(70) = 1400
2A+640+560 =1400 => 2A = 1400-640-560 = 200 => A = 200/2 = 100
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rates are:
A = $100
B = $80
C = $70
--------------------------------
On Thursday, number of calls: A = 4 hrs, B = 6 hrs, C = 3 hrs
Money earned = 4*100+6*80+3*70 = $1,090
Answer:
<h2>The answer is option C</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>
</h3>
Using the rules of indices
Since the bases are the same and are dividing we subtract the exponents
That's

Answer:
(x, y) = (3, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract double the second equation from the first.
(2x +3y) -2(x +y) = (15) -2(6)
y = 3 . . . . . . . . simplify
Use the second equation to find x.
x = 6 -y = 6 -3 = 3
The values of x and y are both 3.
