 So pretend weekend calls is x and weekday calls are y.


the formulas is x + y = 610
                        0.07x + 0.08y = 48.05

So, x = 610 - y

Then, substitute x into the second equation.

0.07(610 - y) + 0.08y = 48.05
 42.7 - 0.07y + 0.08y = 48.05
                        0.01y = 5.35
                               y = 535


Then substitute y into the first equation.

x + 535 = 610
          x = 75

Just to be sure, substitute x and y into the second equation.

0.07(75) + 0.08(535) = 48.05
             5.25 + 42.80 = 48.05
                        48.05 = 48.05


So, on weekends, he used 75 minutes.
On weekdays, he used 535 minutes.

An elevator descends 500 feet in 20 seconds.How would you express the change in the elevators height per second
KiRa [710]
The easiest way is to do some simple division, where 500 is the distance & 20 is the duration.

500  \div 20 = 25

The elevator is descending 25 ft/s.
