The first mechanic worked for 10 hours and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Charges of first mechanic = $95 per hour
Charges of second mechanic = $115 per hour
Total hours = 25
Total amount charged = $2675
Let,
The number of hours worked by first mechanic = x
The number of hours worked by second mechanic = y
According to given statement;
x+y=25 Eqn 1
95x+115y=2675 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 95

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

Dividing both sides by 20

Putting y=15 in Eqn 1

The first mechanic worked for 10 hours and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours.

Explanation:
2 - (-3) = 5
I cant help you there m8 the I'm not able to see the problem I'm sorry.
(I'll assume that the blank spaces are PLUS signs ( + ),
as they usually are on Brainly.)
The mystery complex number is (5 - i) .
(3 + 2i) x (5 - i) = (17 + 7i)
FOIL it out and you'll see it.
You just want to simplify right?!
45. (a^2b^3)(ab)^-2
= (a^2b^3)(a^-2b^-2)
= b

= (-9x^6y^2)(4xy^2)
= -36x^7y^4
47. 3c^2d(2c^3d^5) / 15c^4d^2

49. 5x^4y^2(2x^5y^6) / 20x^3y^5
= 10x^9y^8 / 20x^3y^5
= 1/2x^6 1/3y^3
50. -12n^7p^5(n^2p^4) / 36n^6p^7
