Multiply each hourly rate by x ( time to complete the work) add it to the service call for each and then set the equations equal:

50 + 40x = 30 +45x

Subtract 30 from both sides:

20 + 40x = 45x

Subtract 40x from both sides:

20 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5

x = 4

The length is 4 hours.

Who's is the solution set of the compound inequality 3.5x-10>-3 and 8x-9<39
velikii [3]
3.5x-10>-3  add 10 to both sides

3.5x>7  divide both sides by 3.5

x>2

... now for the other inequality:

8x-9<39  add 9 to both sides

8x<48  divide both sides by 3

x<6

So we have x>2 and x<6, so the compound inequality is:

2<x<6  and this means that the solution set is:

x=(2, 6)
