Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What we have is a general equation that says this in words:
Laura's hours + Doug's hours = 250 total hours
Since we don't know either person's number of hours, AND since we can only have 1 unknown in a single equation, we need to write Laura's hours in terms of Doug's, or Doug's hours in terms of Laura's. We are told that Doug spent Laura's hours plus another 40 in the lab, so let's call Laura's hours "x". That makes Doug's hours "x + 40". Now we can write our general equation in terms of x:
x + x + 40 = 250 and
2x = 210 so
x = 105
Since Laura is x, she worked 105 hours in the lab and Doug worked 40 hours beyond what Laura worked. Doug worked 145. As long as those 2 numbers add up to 250, we did the job correctly. 105 + 145 = 250? I believe it does!!

Answer:
57.6% have allergies
42.4% have no allergies
Step-by-step explanation:
We only need to consider the students who speak two languages according to the question.
To find the percent with allergies, divide the number of students with allergies by the total number of students (that speak two languages).
19/33 = 0.5757 = 57.6%
To find the percent without allergies, divide the number of students without allergies by the total number of students (that speak two languages).
14/33 = 0.4242 = 42.4%
Check your work by adding the percentages to make sure they equal 100%
57.6 + 42.4 = 100
