X= number of hours would it take Jason to wash the van by himself.
2x=number of hours would it take Wendy to wash the van by herserlf.
<span>we calcaulate the fraction of work by Jason during one hour </span>
x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / x hours=1/x
we calculate the fraction of work by Wendy during one hour.
2x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / 2x hours=1/2x
We can suggest this equation:
2 hours(fraction of work by Jason during one hour + fraction of work by Wendy during one hour)=1 work
2(1/x + 1/2x)=1
least common multiple=2x
2(2+1)=2x
2(3)=2x
6=2x
x=6/2
x=3
answer: 3 hours would ti take Jason to wash the van by himself.

Beverly hit 14 home runs because 7 minus 21 is 14
Answer:
slope of line pass throught jk is 0.5 slope
since line perpendicular to jk then x × 0.5= -1 so slope of line perpendicular is -2
then eq of line is y= -2x -15
