Answer:
30 trees
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the policy:
8 trees are cut down 48 trees will be planted
If homeowner is going to cut down five trees on his property how many trees will be planted
Since :
8 trees cut down = 48 planted
5 trees cut down = X
Cross multiply :
8 * X = 48 * 5
8X = 240
X = 240/8
X = 30
Hence, 30 trees will need to be planted
X = number of days it would take Kate to paint the house by herself. .
<span>x+5 = number of days it would take Jean to paint the house by herself.</span>
<span>Together, they paint the house in 6 days: </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x+5) = 1/6 </span>
<span>Multiply both sides by 6x(x+5) </span>
<span>6(x+5) + 6x = x(x+5) </span>
<span>12x + 30 = x^2 + 5x </span>
<span>x^2 − 7x − 30 = 0
</span>therefore the answer is A.
