A!
hope this helps you out
5.871 is greater than 5.781 because in the tenths place 8 is greater than 7. Also if you round the numbers to the nearest tenth, you get 5.9 versus 5.8
4c + 5h = 650 and
5c + 6h = 800 where c are chefs, h are helpers
Start by finding an expression for c
4c + 5h = 650
4c = 650 -5h
c = (650- 5h)/4
Then substitute that into the second equation and solve for a number value for h
5 (650-5h)/4 + 6h = 800
(3250-25h)/4 + 6h = 800
Multiply both sides by 4
3250-25h + 24h = 3200
-h = -50
h = 50
Take that 50 and substitute it into the expression we have for c to get a number value for c
C= 650-5(50)/4
C = 650-250/4
C = 400/4
C= 100
Check your first equations, substituting $50 for the helpers and $100 for the chefs.
4 (100) + 5(50) =
400 + 250 = 650
5(100) + 6(50) =
500 + 300 = 800
There is no question to answer here.
but, there is a 13 minute difference in each week
