Step-by-step explanation:

8x -6 = 18

Add 6 to both sides.

Divide both sides by 8 to isolate x.

x = 3

Solve the system of equations using elimination 2x+y=3 and 3x-y=12
Eddi Din [679]
2x + y = 3
3x - y = 12
Add both equations
5x = 15, x = 3
2(3) + y = 3
6 + y = 3, y = -3
Solution: x = 3, y = -3... or (3,-3)

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
