Answer:
cant help on a test sorry
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer for this problem is 70
3(x-7)+8=-20
Multiply the bracket by 3
(3)(x)(3(-7)+8= -20
3x-21+8= -20
3x-13= -20
Move -13 to the other side. Sign changes from -13 to +13.
3x-13+13= -20+13
3x= -7
Divide by 3
3x/3= -7/3
x= -7/3 or in mixed number : -2 1/3
Answer : x= -7/3 or in mixed number : -2 1/3
Answer:
a. $45 an hour
b. 5.25 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The plumber charges $75 per job, so it is irrelevant to the number of hours they work. 45(h) is $45 multiplied by the number of hours they work.
b.
First, plug the numbers into the equation, the cost being C(h):
311.25 = 45(h) + 75
Next, subtract $75 as it is a set price that is always payed:
236.25 = 45(h)
Then, divide both sides by 45 to find how many hours were worked:
h = 5.25
Hours = $5.25
