<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Jenna did 16 regular haircuts
Jenna did 8 haircuts with coloring

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
Assume that the number of regular haircuts is x and the number of haircuts plus coloring is y

<u>We are given that:</u>
<u>1- Jenna did a total of 24 clients, this means that:</u>
x + y = 24
This can be rewritten as:
x = 24 - y ...............> equation I

<u>2- regular haircuts cost $25, haircuts plus coloring cost $42 and she earned a total of $736. This means that:</u>
25x + 42y = 736 ..........> equation II

<u>Substitute with equation I in equation II and solve for y as follows:</u>
25x + 42y = 736
25(24-y) + 42y = 736
600 - 25y + 42y = 736
17y = 136
y = 8

<u>Substitute with y in equation I to get x as follows:</u>
x = 24 - y
x = 24 - 8
x = 16

<u>Based on the above:</u>
Jenna did 16 regular haircuts
Jenna did 8 haircuts with coloring

Hope this helps :)

To solve 16x18, I double and halve?
Goshia [24]
To solve 16x18, you may split it up into a smaller increment you understand. Like 16x2, which equals 32. (18/2 is 9) multiply 32 by 9. you get your answer 288.

The combined average weight of an okapi and a llama is 450450450 kilograms. The average weight of 333 llamas is 190190190 kilogr
Kisachek [45]
I'm going to assume that you meant 450kg for the combined weight, 190kg more and 3 Llamas. I'm pretty sure Llamas and Okapis don't weigh 450450450kg (that's 993,073,252 pounds). :)

x= Okapi weight
y= Llama weight

EQUATIONS:
There are 2 equations to be written:

1) 450kg is equal to the weight of one Okapi and one Llama

450kg= x + y

2) The weight of 3 llamas is equal to the weight of one Okapi plus 190kg.

3y=190kg + x


STEP 1:
Solve for one variable in one equation and substitute the answer in the other equation.

450kg= x + y
Subtract y from both sides
450-y =x


STEP 2:
Substitute (450-y) in second equation in place of x to solve for y.

3y=190kg + x
3y=190 + (450-y)
3y=640 -y
add y to both sides

4y=640
divide both sides by 4

y=160kg Llama weight


STEP 3:
Substitute 160kg in either equation to solve for x.

3y=190kg + x
3(160)=190 + x
480=190 + x
Subtract both sides by 190

290= x
x= 290kg Okapi weight


CHECK:
3y=190kg + x
3(160)=190 + 290
480=480

Hope this helps! :)

Carolina is mowing lawns for a summer job. For every mowing job, she charges an initial fee plus \$6$6dollar sign, 6 for each ho
Margarita [4]

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.

We have then:

t: number of hours

F (t): total charge

We write the function that models the problem:

F (t) = 6t + b

Where,

b: represents an initial fee.

We must find the value of b.

For this, we use the following data:

Her total fee for a 4-hour job, for instance, is $ 32.

We have then:

32 = 6 (4) + b

From here, we clear the value of b:

32 = 24 + b

32-24 = b

b = 8

Then, the function that models the problem is:

F (t) = 6t + 8

Answer:

the function's formula is:

F (t) = 6t + 8
