A system of equations for this would be
19x + 11y = 273
and
12x + 17y = 283.
X is the amount of minutes to solve one long division problem and y is the amount of minutes to solve a graphing problem.
How To Solve This System of Equations.
Multiply both by 17 and 11 respectively for them to have the greatest common factor for y. So now both equations are:
323x + 187y= 4641
132x + 187y= 3113.
Subtract both equations and you have left:
191x = 1528.
Divide both sides by 191 and you find x.
X = 8.

Answer:
7 Hours 12 Minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
So they one of the printer increases at a rate of 1/12 and the other increases at a rate of 1/18. Since you don't know the time it actually takes, you will replace both numerators with and x. (x/12 and x/18). You want to set these up so that they are adding. (x/12 + x/18=1). Since you're adding, you want to change it to the same denominator. The lowest is 36 so you multiply x/12 by 3/3 (so you don't unbalance the equation) and x/18 by 2/2. You'll end up with 3x/36 + 2x/36= 1 which will simplify to 5x/36=1. Multiply each side by 36 to leave the variable by itself. It becomes 5x=36 and when you divide it by 5 you get 7.2. So it's seven and .2 hours, which is equivalent to7 and 1/5 of an hour or 7 hours and 12 minutes.
Answer:
$390+0.07s=$544+0.05s Subtract $390 from each side.
0.07s=$154+0.05s Subtract 0.05s from each side.
0.02s=$154 Divide each side by 0.02.
s=$7700 Both plans pay the same when sales=$7700
ANSWER With sales greater than $7700, Chris is better off with Plan A.
630 red marbles
420 yellow marbles
210 purple marbles
because 1260 x 1/2 = 630, 1260 x 1/3 = 420, 1260 x 1/6 = 210
