Jeremiah and Tristan work at a dry cleaners ironing shirts. Jeremiah can iron 35 shirts per hour, and Tristan can iron 20 shirts per hour. Jeremiah and Tristan worked a combined 17 hours and ironed 490 shirts. Determine the number of hours Jeremiah worked and the number of hours Tristan worked.

Jeremiah worked 10 hours and Tristan worked 7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1

4.5%
