Answer:

Week=25 Hours

Weekend= 5 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to use the info they gave us and create two equations. Firstly we know how much he gets paid per hour during the week (x) and how much he gets paid on the weekend (y).

$20x+$30y=$650

We get this because we know the combined rates he is paid times the hours should add up to the amount he earned.

The next equation will be made off of the information that he worked 5 times as many hours during the week as on the weekend. This tells us that we will take the weekend hours (y) and multiply them by 5 in order to get the week hours (x).

x=5y      Now, since we have one variable by itself, we can plug it in for x in the first equation.

20(5y)+30y=650    Our first step here is to distribute the 20 to the 5y in order to eliminate the parenthesis.

100y+30y=650    Next add the like terms together (100y+30y).

Now all we have to do to find y is divide by 130 on both sides to get y alone.

130y=650  

________

130     130

y=5             Now to solve for x we just plug our y value into one of the equations above. I'm going to use the second equation.

x=5(5)

x=25

Solve the inequality: a - 4 <10
harkovskaia [24]
<h3>Answer:  a < 14  (Choice B)</h3>

==================================================

Explanation:

Add 4 to both sides

a-4 < 10

a-4+4 < 10+4

a < 14

The reason why we add 4 to both sides is to undo the "minus 4" that's happening to the variable.

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:Brielle will run the half marathon race faster.Brielle will take 1 hour 44 minutes and 48 seconds, Joshua will take 2 hours 37 minutes and 12 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

10 / 1.25 = 8

8 minutes a mile

18 / 1.5 = 12

12 minutes a mile

Brielle will run the half marathon race faster.

8 x 13.1 =104.8

12 x 13.1=157.2

104.8 - 60=

44.8

60 seconds x .8= 48

Brielle will take 1 hour 44 minutes and 48 seconds

157.2 - 120 = 37.2

60 seconds x .2 = 12

Joshua will take 2 hours 37 minutes and 12 seconds
