Two cars got an oil change at the same auto shop. The shop charges customers for each quart of oil plus a flat fee for labor. Th

dexar [7]

Answer:

The labor fee is $14.25, each quart of oil costs $2.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x be thee price of each quart of oil and $y be a flat fee for labor.

1. If the oil change for one car required 5 quarts of oil, then these 5 quarts cost $5x and together with a flat fee for labor it cost $25.50. Thus,

5x+y=25.50.

2. If the oil change for another car required 7 quarts of oil, then these 7 quarts cost $7x and together with a flat fee for labor it cost $30.00. Thus,

7x+y=30.00.

3. Subtract from the second equation the first one, then

$7x+y-(5x+y)=30.00-25.50,\\ \\7x+y-5x-y=4.50,\\ \\2x=4.50,\\ \\x=\$2.25.$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$5\cdot 2.25+y=25.50,\\ \\y=25.50-11.25,\\ \\y=\$14.25.$

The labor fee is $14.25, each quart of oil costs $2.25.

In a company, 80% of the workers are women. if 880 men work for the company, how many workers are there in all?

ELEN [110]

If 80% are women, then 20% are men

20% of what equals 880
0.20x = 880
x = 880/.20
x = 4400

check..
men : 20% of 4400 = 0.20(400) = 880
women : 80% of 4400 = 0.80(4400) = 3520
totaling : 3520 + 880 = 4400

so there are a total of 4400 workers
