Answer:

Explanation:

12b + 1 5c = 420

b ---> number of hour baby sitting

c-----> number of hours cleaning

c = 32 hours

Plugin c = 32 in the equation,

12b + 15*32 = 420

12b + 480 = 420

Subtract 480 from both sides

12 b = 420 - 480

12b = -60

So, This is not a reasonable value.

2) b = 10 hours

Plugin b = 10 hours

12*10 + 15c = 420

120 + 15c = 420

15c = 420 - 120

15c = 300

Divide both sides by 15

c = 300/15

c = 20 hours

He has to do cleaning for 20 hours

Yes, It is reasonable value
