Two mechanics worked on a car. the first mechanic charged $45 per hour, and the second mechanic charged $120 per hour. the mechanics worked for a combined total of 35 hours, and together they charged a total of $2700. how long did each mechanic work

First mechanic worked for 20 hours and second mechanic worked for 15 hours.

Solution:

Given, Two mechanics worked on a car.  

The first mechanic charged $45 per hour, and the second mechanic charged $120 per hour.  

The mechanics worked for a combined total of 35 hours, and together they charged a total of $2700.  

We have to find how long did each mechanic work.

Let the time worked by 1st mechanic be t hours then time taken by 2nd mechanic will be 35 – t hours.

Now, according to given information,  

45 x t + 120 (35 – t) = 2700

45t + 120 35 – 120t = 2700

-75t + 4200 = 2700

75t = 4200 – 2700

75t = 1500

t = 20

hence, 1st mechanic worked for 20 hours and 2nd mechanic worked for 35 – 20 = 15 hours.

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

62.5 paisa

step-by-step explanation:

4000*70 = 280000

280000-(2000*90) = 100000

4000-2400 = 1600

100000/1600 = 62.5
