Answer:

The time it will take Natalie to pick the forty bushels alone is 10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The time it takes Kali to pick forty bushels of apples alone = 15 hours

The time it takes Kali and Natalie to pick forty bushels = 6 hours

The rate at which Kali picks bushels = 40/15 bushels per hour  = 8/3 bushels per hour  

Let x represents the rate at which Natalie picks bushels, we have;

8/3 × 6 + x × 6 = 40

x × 6 = 40 - 8/3 × 6 = 24

x = 24/6 = 4

Therefore;

The rate at which Natalie picks the bushels of apples = 4 bushels/hour

The time it will take Natalie to pick the forty bushels alone = (40 bushels)/(4 bushels/hour) = 10 hours.

Y-4x=3. 2x-3y=21 can someone help
mars1129 [50]

Y-4X =3 ; 2x-3y=21

Y= 3+ 4x

2x -3( 3+4x)= 21

2x- 9- 12x= 21

-10x -9= 21

-10x -9+9= 21+9

-10x = 30

X= 30/-10= -3

Y= 3+4x = 3+ 4* (-3)= 3-12= -9

Can you help plz!!!!

Okay so the table represents B, in one hour of work, the person will make 18.25 (you get this by dividing 36.50 by two because that is how much they made in two hours, we need to know how much they make in one)
Therefore, the equation for A, which has to be less than B, would be either be Y=18x or Y=18.1x

(4x-4)+(3x-2)+(2x+6)=180
Ahat [919]

Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x−4+3x−2+2x+6=180

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4x−4+3x−2+2x+6=180

4x+−4+3x+−2+2x+6=180

(4x+3x+2x)+(−4+−2+6)=180(Combine Like Terms)

9x=180

9x=180

Step 2: Divide both sides by 9.

9x

9

=

180

9

x=20

Answer:

x=20
