You factor the expression first leaving you with
Then you would cancel out 3xy as because there is exactly one on each side. This, in turn, would leave you with
z - 1
Answer:
<u>The number of associates = 6 and the number of partners = 4</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number of associates = x
let the number of partners = y
The law firm assigned a total of 10 lawyers
∴ x + y = 10
∴ y = 10 - x ⇒ (1)
$8000 per day charged for these lawyers, The daily rate charged to the client for each associate is $600 and the daily rate for each partner is $1100.
∴ 600x + 1100 y = 8000 ⇒ (2)
By substitute from (1) at (2)
600 x + 1100 (10 - x) = 8000
solve for x
600 x + 11000 - 1100 x = 8000
-500 x = -3000
x = -3000/-500 = 6
At (1) to find y
y = 10 - 6 = 4
<u>So, the number of associates = 6 and the number of partners = 4</u>
