One week Brooklyn earned $179.30 at her job when she worked for 11 hours. if she is paid the same hourly wage how many hours would she have to work the next week to earn 244.50

$250 deductible means jane must pay the first $250 of her bill. so the insurance company paid = (80% of bill) - deductible = (0.8 x $2550) - $250 = $2040 - $250 = $1790 and jane's cost is = (bill) - (insurance payment) = $2550 - $1790 = $760

Okay so n is going to represent our first number. since the second number of five times greater than n, the second number will be represented as 5n. for us to figure out the two  numbers we need to have  the value of n first. this is going to be done by adding the two numbers together, n and 5n. it can be simplified as 6n, which the problem states is equal to 72. divide 72 by 6n and you can solve for n.  n+5n=726n=72n=(72/6)n=12  now that we know the value of n, we have to multiply 5 times 12 which equals 60. so our two numbers/integers are 12 and 60
