The answer is 7x = 6(x + 15)
x - Jim's rate
y - Pete's rate
<span>Jim completed half the floor in 7 hours: 7x = half of the floor
</span><span>Pete completed the other half of the floor in 6 hours: 6y = half of the floor
So: 7x = 6y
</span><span>Pete can lay 15 more tiles per hour than Jim: y = x + 15
</span>7x = 6y
y = x + 15
Substitute the second equation into the first one:
7x = 6(x + 15)
Answer:
You answer would be $7.54
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to subtract 32.50 from 524.96. That would be 492.46. Then subtract 492.46 from 500. Hope that helps!!
1841 ≈ 1800 (nearest hundred)
964 ≈ 1000 (nearest hundred}
<span>1,841 + 964 </span>≈ 1800 + 1000 = 2800 (Answer B)
