Answer:
Michael worked 4 hours and Landon worked 10 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Michael can iron 40 shirts each hour, so in xx hours he can iron 40x40x shirts. Landon can iron 20 shirts each hour, so in yy hours he can iron 20y20y shirts. The total number of shirts ironed 40x+20y equals 360:
40x+20y=360
40x+20y=360
Since Michael and Landon worked a combined 14 hours, we know x+yx+y must equal 14.
x+y=14
Write System of Equations:
40x+20y= 360
x+y=14
Solve for y in each equation:
40x+20y = 360 x+y = 14 20y = -40x+360
=
y = -2x+18
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficient is known as "the number in front of the letter,' so since 5 is in front of the x, 5 would be the leading coefficient, especially since the outcome would be 5x+881.
Fifty six million eight hundred ninety three thousand
We are given:
Our goal in solving for any variable, in this case is x, we need to isolate x on one side of the variable. Let's start by subtracting 7x from both sides, which will cancel the +7x on the right side. We are then left with:
Now, we want to move that +10 to the other side so our x is all by itself. Let's subtract 10 from both sides, which will cancel the +10 on the right leaving us with:
Since we cannot have a coefficient when solving for x, we need to divide both sides by -3.
When we divide, our answer is:
11:32 pm + 5 hours= 4:32pm
4:32 pm + 45 minutes = 5:17 pm
3/4 hour = 45 min
