Benecio worked 40 hours at his two jobs last week. He earned $20 per hour at his weekday job and $18 per hour at his weekend job. He
earned $770 in all. How many hours did he work at each job?

25 hours on his week job and 15 hours on his weekend job

Steps

20 times 25 is 500 for pay

18 times 15 is 270  for pay

Just add them

500 plus 270 equals 770 for pay

And 15 plus 25 is 40 total in hours

1. d.90

2. e. none of these (80)

3. a. 0

4. b. 6

5. e. none of these (10)

6. a. 5

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
