Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What we have is a general equation that says this in words:
Laura's hours + Doug's hours = 250 total hours
Since we don't know either person's number of hours, AND since we can only have 1 unknown in a single equation, we need to write Laura's hours in terms of Doug's, or Doug's hours in terms of Laura's. We are told that Doug spent Laura's hours plus another 40 in the lab, so let's call Laura's hours "x". That makes Doug's hours "x + 40". Now we can write our general equation in terms of x:
x + x + 40 = 250 and
2x = 210 so
x = 105
Since Laura is x, she worked 105 hours in the lab and Doug worked 40 hours beyond what Laura worked. Doug worked 145. As long as those 2 numbers add up to 250, we did the job correctly. 105 + 145 = 250? I believe it does!!

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The same x value cannot be used more than once or it isn't a function.
None of these are choices, because in order to make 20ths equal a 45th, it was to end in a 20,40,60,80, or ending in 00.
Hey there!
39 = - u / 6
MULTIPLY 6 to BOTH SIDES
39(9) = (-u / 6)(6)
CANCEL out: the RIGHT side
KEEP: the LEFT side because it helps solve for the u-value
NEW EQUATION: -u = 234
DIVIDE -1 to BOTH SIDES
-1u / -1 = 234 / -1
CANCEL out: -1 / -1 because it gives you 1
KEEP: 234 / -1 because it gives you the result of the u-value
NEW EQUATION: u = 234 / -1
SIMPLIFY IT!
u = -234
Therefore, your answer is: [u = -234]
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
