<span>Krystal's rate = 1 floor in 16 min. = 1/16 floors per min.

Working together their rate = 1 floor in 5.76 min. = 1/5.76 floors per min.

We need to determine Perry's rate, so we need to equate their combined rate with the sum of the individual rates.

Let Perry's time = x

In equation form, we can write:
1/16 + 1/x = 1/5.76
Solve for x:

(x+16)/16x = 1/5.76 -> 5.76(x+16) = 16x -> 10.24x = 92.16 -> x = 9

So, Perry would take 9 mins. to do the floor alone.

I hope this helped!

−1/2 (x+2) + 112x = 3<br><br> x=?
AysviL [449]

Given equation :−1/2 (x+2) + 112x = 3

We have -1/2 in front of parenthesis on left side .

It's better to remove fraction in an equation, in order make it easier to solve.

In order to remove 2 from denominator of 2, we need to multiply each and every term by 2.

Multiplying each term in the equation by 2, we get

2* −1/2(x+2) +2* 112x = 2*3.

On simplifying this step, we get

-1(x+2) +224x = 6.

Distributing -1 over (x+2), we get

-x -2 +224x = 6

Combining like terms on left side, -x+224x=223x

223x -2 = 6

Adding 2 on both sides, we get

223x -2+2 = 6+2

223x = 8

Dividing both sides by 223, we get

223x/223 = 8/223.

x= 8/223.
