Let n be the amount of time it takes william to cut the lawn. Then Shelly takes
n-2 hours. So:
1/n+1/n-2=1/3
3(n-2)+3n=n²-2n
6n-6=n²-2n
n²-8n+6=0
Using the quadratic formula, we get a positive value of 7.1623 hrs as the amount of time william takes working alone, and 5.1623 as the amount  of time Shelly takes working alone

Afan pays $875 for 3 premium seat tickets. Another fan pays $2125 for 8 premium seat tickets. Write a linear model for the cost
grandymaker [24]

The equation is : C=250t +125 where C is the cost and t represent the number of tickets purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of premium seat ticket be C

Let the number of tickets a fan buys to be t

Then, presenting the information as ordered pairs of coordinates (x,y) will be;

Fan 1, (3,875)

Fan 2, (8,2125)

Plot the ordered pairs as coordinates on a graph tool, find the slope of the linear graph and equation in slope intercept form as;

m=Δy/Δx

m=2125-875/8-3

m=1250/5

m=250

Equation of the graph,

Δy/Δx=250

y-875/x-3 =250

y-875=250(x-3)

y-875=250x-750

y=250x-750+875

y=250x+125

C=250t +125 where C is the cost and t represent the number of tickets purchased

5n + 30 = 0

5n = -30

(5n = -30)/5

n = - 6

n - 2 = 0

n = 2
