Answer: x = 5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Only one because there is one variable and the combined coefficients of x are non-zero.
(0.75(x+40)=0.70(x+20), 0.05x=14-30=-16, x=-320)
First calculate the hourly rate, which is the difference of cleaning 2 and 1 rooms:
175-125=50
then calculate the initial value by subtracting the hourly rate from the "1 room" cost:
125-50=75
The initial cost might be something like driving to the place (which is only necessary once), while the rate covers work time or cleaning utensils used.
