Answer:
Sue would have taken 15 hours to sew all the costumes.
Step-by-step explanation:
In 10 hours, Sue sewed 5 costumes (1 every 2 hours).
Sue= 5 costumes
Sue sewed in 10 hours, twice as many costumes as Anne in 16 hours. Then 5 is twice costumes than Anne produced. Therefore, Anne sewed 2.5 costumes.
Anne: 2.5 costumes
In total they had to sew 5+2.5= 7.5 costumes. Then Sue would have taken 7.5*2= 15 hours to sew them all.
Answer:
flour $42 , bag of sugar $58
Step-by-step explanation:
let f represent flour and s represent sugar, then
7f + 5s = 584 → (1)
5f + 3s = 384 → (2)
Multiplying (1) by 3 and (2) by - 5 and adding will eliminate s
21f + 15s = 1752 → (3)
- 25f - 15s = - 1920 → (4)
Add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate s , that is
- 4f = - 168 ( divide both sides by - 4 )
f = 42
Substitute f = 42 into either of the 2 equations and solve for s
Substituting into (1)
7(42) + 5s = 584
294 + 5s = 584 ( subtract 294 from both sides )
5s = 290 ( divide both sides by 5 )
s = 58
The cost of a bag of flour is $42 and cost of sugar is $58
