Answer:
Below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the 2 sides marked with the double lines are equal:
5y-1 = 2y+11
3y = 12
y = 4.
Also :
3x-5 + 2(2x+5) = 180
3x - 5 + 4x + 10 = 180
7x = 180 + 5 -10
7x = 175
x = 175/7 = 25.
Answer:
The answer is B because you add up the 3 expenses
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the three expenses
It takes them 1 7/8 hrs to complete the job together.
How:
Fred = 3 hrs
Jason = 5 hrs
1/3x + 1/5x = 1/x
3x x 5x = 15 —> 3x/15 + 5x/15 = 15/15
3x + 5x = 8x —> 8x/15 = 1.875 = 1 7/8 hrs
