Answer:

just keep in mind am not sure if the answer 6:15:20

Step-by-step explanation:

now we have ab= 2 : 5

               and bc= 3 : 4

so b is the common one between them so multiply both of the b together which will give u 15 so now we have b = 15

to get a multiply  2 by 3 to get 6 so a = 6

to get c multiply 4 by 5 to get 20 so c = 20

now I hope that its correct and that u understood

Answer:

79

Step-by-step explanation:

equation:

18x - 8 + 11x = 20x +19

Add like terms:

29x - 8 = 20x + 19

add 8 to both sides:

29x = 20x + 27

subtract 20x from btoh side:

9x = 27

Divide both sides by 9:

x = 3

substitute x into the equation for SU

SU = 20(3) + 19

Solve:

SU = 79

A cleaning company charges x dollars per hour to clean floors and y dollars per hour to clean the rest of a house.
saul85 [17]
The answer is B. (15,18)

Solution:

First, let's set the variables first.

X = dollars per hour to clean the floor
Y = dollars per hour to clean the rest of the house

For the first statement, "<span>2 hours to clean floors and 3 hours to clean the rest of a house, the total charge is $84"
We can put it into an equation.
         2X + 3Y = 84       </span>⇒    equation 1

For the first statement, "<span>1 hour to clean floors and 4 hours to clean the rest of a house, the total charge is $87'
         X + 4Y = 87         </span>⇒    equation 2

Multiply first equation 2 by 2 to make the coefficient of both equations 1 and 2 the same.

Using elimination method in solving for x and y,

 
  (equation 1)              2X + 3Y = 84
  
 (equation 2)            2(X + 4Y) = 87   
                                    2X + 8Y = 174  
⇒ equation 3

Next, subtract equation 3 from equation 1.
            2X + 3Y = 84
      -   (2X + 8Y = 174)
        -------------------------
                  - 5Y = -90
                      Y = 18

Find X when Y = 18
@ equation 1  :    2X + 3Y = 84
                            2X + 3(18) = 84
                            2X + 54 = 84
                            2X = 84 - 54
                            2X = 30
                             X = 15
   
The answer is in ordered pairs of cleaning the floors and to clean the rest of the house. So, in the form (X,Y).
