Answer:
The new amount paid to mechanics per after by new owner is $ 19 Answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The amount paid to mechanics initially = $ 20 per hour
Now, The new owner paid less at the rate = 5%
Let the amount paid to the mechanics after 5 % less = x per hour
So, According to question 
The new amount paid to mechanics per hour = initial amount paid per hour × ( 1 -  )
 )
or, The new amount paid to mechanics per hour =  $ 20 × ( 1 -  )
 )
I.e The new amount paid to mechanics per hour =  $ 20 × 0.95
∴ The new amount paid to mechanics per hour =  $ 19
Hence The new amount paid to mechanics per after by new owner is $ 19 Answer
 
        
             
        
        
        
10/16=5/8
5+4= 9
9/8
9/8= 1 1/8

To find the solution, we use the substitution method. 
x+y=-1
<span>x-3y=11
</span>
x+y = -1-y
  -y       
x = -1-y
Now apply the value of x into the other equation.
x-3y=11
-1-y-3y = 11
Combine like terms
-4y -1 = 11
       +1    +1
-4y = 12
-4y = 12
-4y/-4 = 12/-4
y = -3
Now, apply the value of Y to one equation to find x.
y = -3
x -3 = -1
   +3   +3  
 
x= 2
Now we have the value for both, x and y.
x = 2
y =-3

First, let x be the number of hours it will take for Hector to finish the same job alone. This means that every hour, Hector can do 1/x of the job. The amount of work done by Shawn and Hector in 6 hours should be equal to 1 complete work. This can be expressed as,
                      (1/9 + 1/x)(6) = 1
The value of x is 18. Thus, Hector can to 1/18 of the job in one hour.
