April worked 1 1/2 times as long on her math project as did Carl. Debbie worked 1 1/4 times as long as Sonia. Richard worked 1 3
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

        Student                                                            Hours worked

             April.                                                                  7\frac{7}{8} \ hrs

        Debbie.                                                                   8\frac{1}{8}\ hrs

        Richard.                                                                   7\frac{19}{24}\ hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Some data's were missing so we have attached the complete information in the attachment.

Given:

Number of Hours Carl worked on Math project = 5\frac{1}{4}\ hrs

5\frac{1}{4}\ hrs can be Rewritten as \frac{21}{4}\ hrs

Number of Hours Carl worked on Math project = \frac{21}{4}\ hrs

Number of Hours Sonia worked on Math project = 6\frac{1}{2}\ hrs

6\frac{1}{2}\ hrs can be rewritten as \frac{13}{2}\ hrs

Number of Hours Sonia worked on Math project = \frac{13}{2}\ hrs

Number of Hours Tony worked on Math project = 5\frac{2}{3}\ hrs

5\frac{2}{3}\ hrs can be rewritten as \frac{17}{3}\ hrs.

Number of Hours Tony worked on Math project = \frac{17}{3}\ hrs.

Now Given:

April worked 1\frac{1}{2} times as long on her math project as did Carl.

1\frac{1}{2}  can be Rewritten as \frac{3}{2}

Number of Hours April worked on math project = \frac{3}{2} \times Number of Hours Carl worked on Math project

Number of Hours April worked on math project = \frac{3}{2}\times \frac{21}{4} = \frac{63}{8}\ hrs \ \ Or \ \ 7\frac{7}{8} \ hrs

Also Given:

Debbie worked 1\frac{1}{4} times as long as Sonia.

1\frac{1}{4}  can be Rewritten as \frac{5}{4}.

Number of Hours Debbie worked on math project = \frac{5}{4} \times Number of Hours Sonia worked on Math project

Number of Hours Debbie worked on math project = \frac{5}{4}\times \frac{13}{2}= \frac{65}{8}\ hrs \ \ Or \ \ 8\frac{1}{8}\ hrs

Also Given:

Richard worked 1\frac{3}{8} times as long as tony.

1\frac{3}{8} can be Rewritten as \frac{11}{8}

Number of Hours Richard worked on math project = \frac{11}{8} \times Number of Hours Tony worked on Math project

Number of Hours Debbie worked on math project = \frac{11}{8}\times \frac{17}{3}= \frac{187}{24}\ hrs \ \ Or \ \ 7\frac{19}{24}\ hrs

Hence We will match each student with number of hours she worked.

        Student                                                            Hours worked

             April.                                                                  7\frac{7}{8} \ hrs

        Debbie.                                                                   8\frac{1}{8}\ hrs

        Richard.                                                                   7\frac{19}{24}\ hrs

The first blanks options are -2 , -1/2 , 2 , 1/2
Pie

Answer:

equation 1

y = -2x

equation 2

y = x-3

Solution to both

(1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to get the equations of both lines

General form is;

y = mx + c

where m is slope and c is the y-intercept

Table 1

since we have a point 0,0; the y-intercept here is zero

Let us get the slope. We can do this by selecting any two points

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (2-10)/(-1+5) = -8/4 = -2

So the equation of the first line is;

y = -2x

Table 2

we get the slope

m = (4+2)/(7-1) = 6/6 = 1

The partial equation is;

y = x + c

To get c, we select any two point and substitute

4 = 7 + c

c = 4-7

c = -3

So the equation is;

y = x-3

To get the solution to both systems, we equate the y

-2x = x - 3

-2x-x = -3

-3x = -3

x = -3/-3

x = 1

To get y, we substitute;

recall; y = -2x

y = -2(1)

y = -2

Solution to the system is;

(1,-2)
