Set of equations that can be used to calculate rate for each plumber:
2A+8B+8C = 1,400 --- (1)
4A+7B+10C = 1,660 --- (2)
3A+9B+9C = 1,660 --- (3)
------------------------------------
2*(1) - (2)
------------------------------------
4A+16B+16C = 2,800
4A+7B+10C = 1,660 -
------------------------------------
9B+6C = 1,140 --- (4)
------------------------------------
3(2) -4(3)
-----------------------------------
12A+21B+30C = 4,980
12A+36B+36C = 6,600 -
-----------------------------------
-15B-6C = -1,620 --- (5)
------------------------------------
(4) + (5)
------------------------------------
9B+6C = 1140
-15B-6C = -1620 +
-------------------------------------
-6B = -480 => 6B = 480 => B = 480/6 = 80
-------------------------------------------------------
Using (4), 9(80)+6C = 1140
720+6C = 1140 => 6C = 1140-720 = 420 => C = 420/6 = 70
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using (1), 2A+8(80)+8(70) = 1400
2A+640+560 =1400 => 2A = 1400-640-560 = 200 => A = 200/2 = 100
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rates are:
A = $100
B = $80
C = $70
--------------------------------
On Thursday, number of calls: A = 4 hrs, B = 6 hrs, C = 3 hrs
Money earned = 4*100+6*80+3*70 = $1,090
Answer:
I thinks its D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
One
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-485
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula
<em><u>Givens</u></em>
an = a28
n = 28
a1 = - 242
<em><u>Solution</u></em>
d = a3 - a2
d = -260 - - 251
d = -260 + 251
d = - 9
an = a1 + (n-1)d
an = -242 + (n - 1)(-9)
a28 = - 242 + 27*(-9)
a28 = - 242 - 243
a28 = - 485
