<h3>
Answer: Yes it is linear.</h3>
Explanation:
The given equation is the same as y = 0x - 7. It matches the form y = mx+b which is slope intercept form of a linear equation.
The slope m = 0 always applies to horizontal lines. All points on this line have a y coordinate of -7.

Answer:
<h2>22 hours and 10 hours </h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
let the jobs be x and y, so that
x+y=32--------1
9x+7y=248----2
x=32-y
substitute x=32-y for x in equation 2 we have
9(32-y)+7y=248
open bracket we have
288-9y+7y=248
-2y=248-288
-2y=-40
2y=40
divide both sides by 2 we have
y=40/2
y= 10 hours
subtitute y=10 for y in equation 1 to find x
x+10=32--------1
x=32-10
x=22
x=22 hours
