Two halfs equal one whole. think of it like this, an orange cut in half leaves you with two halfs, put them together and you have a whole. simple. multiplying by 2 just means adding a number two times.
1 half plus one half= 2halves= 1 whole
1half x 2= 2 halves=1 whole

RSB [31]

Answer:

The time required to finish the work by both candy and Tim working together = 36.83 minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken by the candy to finish the work T_{1}= 85 min

Time taken by the Tim to finish the work T_{2}  = 65 min

Thus the time taken by both to finish the work = \frac{T_1 \times\ T_2}{T_1 + T_2}

Put the values of T_{1} and T_{2}  we get ,

                    T_{} = \frac{85 \times\ 65}{85 + 65}

                    T_{} = \frac{221}{6}

                    T_{} = 36.83 minute

Thus the time required to finish the work by both candy and Tim working together = 36.83 minute

kicyunya [14]
A.  12*x + 2*y = 90
       6*x + 2*y = 60

To write system of equation you just need to sum all solo and ensemble acts and make it equal to how much they will last for.

B.  Here we can multiply second equation with negative 1 and add it to first equation.
6x = 30
x = 5

now we replace x in any of 2 equations to get y.
30+2y = 60
2y = 30
y=15

Solo acts are 5 minutes long and ensemble acts are 15 minutes long
