<u>Answer:</u>
$50 and $115
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We know that,
the sum of the two rates = $165 per hour
Let x and (165 - x) represent the $/hour of the 15hr and 5hr mechanics respectively.
Then combining their charges together to get:

Solving for x to get:



So the rate charged per hour by one mechanic is $50 and for the other mechanic =
$115.
Answer: 67.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 7x/8 - 53/8
Step-by-step explanation:
P(3,-4)
x = -7y/8 + 3
Isolate y and translate to slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
x = -7y/8 + 3
x - 3 = -7y/8
8x - 24 = -7y
y = -8x/7 - 24/7
The slope of the equation is -8/7
The slope of the new equation will be perpendicular to the slope of the given equation which means it is the negative reciprocal.
y = mx + b where m = -1/(-8/7) = 7/8
y = 7x/8 + b
Plug in know values and solve for b:
-4 = 7(3)/8 + b = 21/8 + b
-4 - 21/8 = b
b = -32/8 -21/8 = -53/8
Plug in b into the equation:
y = 7x/8 - 53/8
Your answer is 35 because you do 35 divided by 50 which equals 0.7 starting from the decimal, move two spaces to the right and you will get 70%
