<span>30x + 30y = 450 20x + 25y = 345
Here 345 represents the total area (in sq ft) shoveled; x repres. Melinda's rate and y represents Paul's rate. We need to solve for x and y and then subtract the smaller from the larger.
</span>30x + 30y = 450 Multiply this eqn by 2: 6<span>0x + 60y = 900
</span>20x + 25y = 345 Mult this eqn by -3: -60x -75y = -1035
---------------------------
-15y = -135
y = 9
This comes to 9 square feet per minute.
Now, let's find x: 30x + 30y = 450; 30x + 270 = 450; 30x = 180; x = 6
Melinda can shovel 6 sq ft in 1 min, whereas Paul can shovel 9.
The difference is (9 - 6) sq ft / min, or 3 sq ft / min (answer)
Answer:
B. x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(2x + 3) = 2x + 6 - (8x + 2)
-8x -12 = 2x + 6 - 8x -2
(now, "-8" in both terms is cancelled):
-12 = 2x + 6 - 2
(leave 2x alone in second term):
-12 -6 +2 = 2x
-16 = 2x
-16/2 = x
-8 = x
