Using a system of equations, it is found that Debbie worked 45 hours during the week.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are:
- Variable x: Amount of hours worked by Juan.
- Variable y: Amount of hours worked by Debbie.
Juan and Debbie each earn 9 per hour at their "jobs", and earned a total of 765 for the week, hence:
9x + 9y = 765
Simplifying the expression by 9:
x + y = 85 -> x = 85 - y.
Debbie worked five hours more than juan during the week, hence:
y = x + 5.
Since x = 85 - y, we replace in the expression:
y = 85 - y + 5.
2y = 90.
y = 45.
Debbie worked 45 hours during the week.

Answer: area is 286.16 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the sand pit is 29.2 feet and the width is 9.8 feet.
L= 29.2 ft
W = 9.8 ft
To find out the area, all we have to do is multiply the lenght by the width:
And do not forget that to calculate the area, all units must be the same and for the area, it is always the unit squared, in this case, feet square or simply (ft²).
A = l*w
A = 29.2 * 9.8 = 286.16 ft²
Answer:
m = (ps - b - uxs/t) / ux/t - p
Step-by-step explanation:
ux/t +b/m+s =p
multiplying throughout by (m+s) we get:
ux/t(m+s) + b = p(m+s)
open the brackets:
uxm/t + uxs/t + b = pm + ps
bring on one side of the equal sign all terms containg m, to make it the subject:
m(ux/t - p) = ps - b - uxs/t
m= (ps - b - uxs/t) / ux/t - p
