I set it up as a ratio with hours on the top and the fraction of the job on the bottom. It looks like this: 5/(2/3) / x/1, because 1 is the whole job if 2/3 is only a fraction of it. Cross multiplying gives you 2/3x = 5. Solving for x gives you that it will take 7.5 hours to complete a whole job if it takes 5 hours to complete 2/3 of it.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
*it's kind of hard to read the number in parenthesis though but i think it's 5
both angles have to add up to 180º because they are co-exterior angles on parallel lines.

We can write this in math as x+y+z=104, x=y-6, and z=3y
Because we already know what x and z are in terms of y, we can substitute our values for x and z into the first equation. This now looks like (y-6) + y + (3y) = 104. Now we can simplify our equation to find our value for y.
y-6 + y + 3y = 104 simplifies to 5y - 6 = 104, then 5y=110, and finally y=22.
Now that we know our value for y we can find our values for x and z by substituting our value for y into the other two equations.
The second equation x = y-6 can be simplified as x = 22 - 6 and further simplified as x = 16.
The third equation z = 3y can be written as z = 3(22) or z = 66.
Our three numbers are 16, 22, and 66. Hope this helps you!
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 1 = 9
4x + 1 -1 = 9-1
4x=8
