Eric took 20 hours to do the job alone.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

<u>Given </u>:

  • Total work = 75 packages
  • Joe took 5 hours to complete the total work.

The amount of work Joe alone can do per hour = 75/5 = 15 packages.

The amount of work Joe and Eric together do per hour = 75/4 = 18.75

The amount of work Eric alone can do per hour = 18.75 - 15 = 3.75

The time Eric took to complete the entire work = 75 / 3.75 = 20 hours.

For 5 points and brainliest to the best correct answer, find the missing measures.<br> Thank you
zzz [600]

Answer:

  • x = 7
  • y = 97°
  • z = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

The markings on the figure show this to be a parallelogram. That means opposite sides are congruent. Because the sides are parallel, "alternate interior" angles are also congruent.

__

Angle y forms a linear pair with the one marked 83°, so is supplementary to it:

  y = 180°-83° = 97°

__

The angle marked y is an exterior angle to the triangle containing the angle marked (7x -5)°. As such, it is equal to the sum of the remote interior angles, the one marked (7x -5)° and the unmarked one that is congruent to (3x +32)°.

  (7x -5) +(3x +32) = 97 . . . . . angle relations in the left-side triangle

  10x +27 = 97 . . . . . . . collect terms

  10x = 70 . . . . . . . . subtract 27

 x = 7 . . . . . . . . divide by 10

__

The side marked Z is congruent to the opposite parallel side, so ...

  z = 19

__

The missing measures are ...

  • x = 7
  • y = 97°
  • z = 19

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

You can also find the value of y by adding up the interior angles of the right-side triangle. The one not shown there is "alternate interior" to the one marked (7x -5)°, hence has the same measure. This gives ...

  (7x -5) +(3x +32) +83 = 180

Subtracting 83° from both sides gives the equation we used above.
