Patrick will be able to paint the home on his own after a ten-hour effort.

This is further explained below.

<h3>How much time will it take for Patrick to paint the house by himself?</h3>

Generally, the equation for time is  mathematically given as

1/(t+4)  +  1/(t+9)  = 1/t

Therefore

[1/(t+4)] (t+4)(t+9)(t) +  [1/(t+9)](t+4)(t+9)(t) =  (1/t)(t+4)(t+9)(t)  

(t² + 9t)  + (t² + 4t) = t² + 13t + 36

Place the equation on the left side of the page and make it equal to 0. Use the additive inverse property as follows:

t² + t² - t² + 9t + 4t - 13t - 36 = 0

2t² - t² + 13t - 13t - 36 = 0

t² - 36 = 0

Calculate the product of the difference of two squares using the formula t2 - 36 = 0.

Both the total and the difference between the two terms constitute the factors.

(t + 6) (t - 6) = 0

t + 6 = 0

t = -6

t - 6 = 0

t = 6

Choose the positive value for time, t = 6 hours.

It will take 10 hours for Patrick to paint the house alone.

Patrick will be able to paint the home on his own after a ten-hour effort.

3(r-1) -2(r+3) =0 anybody know the answer to that ?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

r = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

3(r - 1) - 2(r + 3) = 0

First, use the distributive property.

3r - 3 -2r - 6 = 0

Now, isolate the variable "r" to one side by adding the opposite of the whole numbers to each side so it cancels it out on the left ide and adds it to the right.

3r - 3 -2r - 6 = 0

   +3        +6    +3 +6

3r - 2r = 9

Subtract the r's.

r = 9

Now that we know r = 9, we can plug in 9 into the original (but distributed) expression for every time it uses the variable "r" to check our work.

3r - 3 -2r - 6 = 0

3(9) - 3 - 2(9) - 6 = 0

27 - 3 - 18 - 6 = 0

24 - 24 = 0

0 = 0

So, r = 9 is true.

Hope this helps! If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to ask me or your teacher to be sure you master the subject. Stay safe, and please mark brainliest!
