Answer:

Lillian worked 7h and Jacob worked 6h

Step-by-step explanation:

the number of hours Lillian worked are x (h)

the number of  hours Jacob worked are y (h)

                 (0 < x,y < 13)

=> Lilian ironed: 25x (shirts)

    Jacob ỉroned: 20y (shirts)

because Lillian and Jacob worked a combined 13 hours and ironed 295 shirts, we have:

\left \{ {{x+y=13} \atop {25x+20y=295}} \right. => \left \{ {{x=7} \atop {y=6}} \right.

so Lillian worked 7h and Jacob worked 6h

kodGreya [7K]

Solution: Estimated time for the work is 40 hour work week.

Estimated payment to 3 laborers working 40 hours at cost $14 per hour is:

3\times 40\times 14= $1680

Estimated payment to 6 masons working 40 hours at cost $24 per hour is:

6\times 40\times 24= $5760

Estimated cost of material = $3143

Contractor wishes to make a profit of $500

Therefore, the mathematical expression that will give the estimated cost of the job is:

Cost = 1680+5760+3143+500

The estimated total cost is:

Cost =$11083
