Question

Which equation represents this situation? Charlie worked 1.5 hours less than Dirk. Together, they worked a total of 25 hours. Dirk worked h hours.

A. h + (h - 1.5) = 25
B. h + (h + 1.5) = 25
C. h - 1.5 = 25
D. h - 2.5 = 25

Answer 1

answer is A. h + (h - 1.5) = 25
hope that helps

Answer 2

Answer: A. h + (h - 1.5) = 25

Explanation:

Given: The time taken by Derk to do the work =h

The time taken by Charlie to do the work = h-1.5 hours

The total time taken by both of them = 25 hours.

Thus, according to the question we have the following equation

`h+(h-1.5)=25`

Hence, the equation represents that the given situation is
`h+(h-1.5)=25`.
