Respuesta :

Answer:

30

Explanation:

Provided that there are two categories of workers:

Blue Collar and white collar

Rate of blue collar = $600 per week

Rate of white collar = $1,000 per week

Total workers = 50

Let us assume that blue collar workers = y

Then,

y [tex]\times[/tex] $600 + (50 - y) [tex]\times[/tex] $1,000 = $42,000

600y + $50,000 - 1,000y = $42,000

$50,000 - $42,000 = 1,000y - 600y

$8,000 = 400y

$8,000/400 = y

20 = y

That means 20 blue collar workers

White collar workers = 50 - y = 50 - 20 = 30
