Answer:

6 dollars per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up and solve an equation to answer this question. For this problem, let x stand for the amount he earned per hour. The equation that represents this situation is 3.2x + 4.3x = 45. The first term represents monday and the second represents tuesday. When these add up they should equal 45 because that is the total amount he made. To find his pay per hour, solve for x.

First, combine the like terms

  • 7.5x=45

Next, divide both sides by 7.5

  • x=6

During the summer holidays sarah earns pocket money by mowing lawn. She can mow 6 lawns in 1 1/2 and clean the pool in one-sixth
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

It will take Sarah 2 1/2 hours to mow 10 lawns

It will take Sarah 1 2/3 hours to clean 10 pools

Step-by-step explanation:

During the summer holidays, Sarah earns pocket money by mowing the lawn. She can mow 6 lawns in 1 1/2 hour and clean a pool in one-sixth of an hour. How long does Sarah take to clean 10 pools and 10 lawns?

Number of lawns : Time to mow lawns = 6 : 1 1/2

= 6 : 3/2

Number of lawns : Time to mow lawns = 10 : x

6 : 3/2 = 10 : x

6 ÷ 3/2 = 10/x

6 * 2/3 = 10/x

12/3 = 10/x

Cross product

12 * x = 3 * 10

12x = 30

x = 30/12

x = 2 6/12

x = 2 1/2 hours

It will take Sarah 2 1/2 hours to mow 10 lawns

Number of pools cleaned : time taken = 1 : 1/6

Number of pools cleaned : time taken = 10 : x

1 : 1/6 = 10 : x

1 ÷ 1/6 = 10/x

1 * 6/1 = 10/x

6 = 10/x

Cross product

6 * x = 10

6x = 10

x = 10/6

x = 1 4/6

x = 1 2/3 hours

It will take Sarah 1 2/3 hours to clean 10 pools
