B is the answer I had a class with this answer
Answer:
L = 18 = hours worked by Lisa
a = 12 = hours worked by Abigail
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Abigail's earning = $20
Lisa's earning = $25
Last week :
Let number of hours worked by Abigail = a
Number of hours worked by Lisa = L
Total earning = $690
Total hours worked :
a + L = 30 - - - - (1)
To obtain their total earning:
(Lisa's earning per hour * hours worked) + (Abigail's earning per hour * hours worked)). $690
($25 * L) + ($20 * a) = $690
25L + 20a = 690 - - - - (2)
a + L = 30 - - - - (1)
25L + 20a = 690 - - - - (2)
L = 30 - a
25(30 - a) + 20a = 690
750 - 25a + 20a = 690
-5a = 690 - 750
-5a = - 60
a = 12
From (1)
a + L = 30 - - - - (1)
12 + L = 30
L = 30 - 12
L = 18
L = 18 = hours worked by Lisa
a = 12 = hours worked by Abigail

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be x and y
<h3>Given condition:</h3>
x + y = 48 --------(1)
y = 7x -------------(2)
Put Eq. (2) in (1)
x + 7x = 48
8x = 48
Divide 8 to both sides
x = 48/8
<h3>x = 6</h3>
Put x = 6 in Eq. (2)
y = 7 (6)
<h3>y = 42</h3>
