Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours. Together they

inysia [295]

You have two unknown rates, so we need to develop two equations to solve for these unknowns (based on the information given on the problem statement):

5x + 10y = 725
x + y = 100

By substitution, we get:

5x + 10(100 - x) = 725
5x + 1000 - 10x = 725
-5x = 725 - 1000
-5x = -275
x = -275/-5 = 55

100 - 55 = 45

Thus:
The mechanic who worked for 5 hours charged his time at $55/hr, and the mechanic who worked for 10 hours charged his time at $45/hr.

To verify, plug and chug the results back into the original equations:

5(55) + 10(45) = 725
275 + 450 = 725
725 = 725 [OK]

55 + 45 = 100 [OK]

Surface area of solid cuboid 8cm 6cm 2cm

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

152 $\text{cm}^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total surface area of a cuboid is the sum of the surface area of all six of its faces.

We also know that each opposing side has the same surface area. Thus the total surface area is equal to:

$2*(8*6+8*2+6*2)\\\\=2*(48+16+12)\\=2*76\\=152$ ( $\text{cm}^2$ )

Marcie bought a total of 20 used books and cds during a yard sale for a total of 54.50$. of books cost 1.50$ each and cds 5$ eac

melomori [17]

Let numbers of books be 'b' and numbers of CDs be 'c'

We can set up two equations:
Equation [1] ⇒ $b+c=20$
Equation [2] ⇒ $1.50b+5c=54.50$

We are solving for the number of books and the number of CDs bought

When we have two equations in terms of two different variables; $b$ and $c$ , that we need to solve, then this becomes a simultaneous equation problem.

First, rearrange Equation [1] to make either $b$ or $c$ the subject:
$b+c=20$
$b=20-c$

Then we substitute $b=20-c$ into Equation [2]
$1.50b+5c=54.50$
$1.50(20-c)+5c=54.50$
$30-1.50c+5c=54.50$
$5c-1.5c=54.50-30$
$3.5c=24.50$
$c=7$

Now we know the value of $c$ which is $c=7$ , substitute this value into $b=20-c$ we have $b=20-7=13$

Answer:
Numbers of books = 13
Numbers of CDs = 7
