Answer:
(x+8)(x+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
i am sorry but i didn't understand after the equation.
but i think i got what you trying to ask so this is
i got (x+8)(x+1)
Answer:The number of days it will take to sell the same amount of cookies is 3 and the number of tubs that will be sold is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of days it will take either of them to sell the same number of tubs.
Let y represent the total number of tubs that that Joseph will sell in x days.
Let z represent the total number of tubs that that Dwayne will sell in x days.
Joseph has already sold 3 tubs. If Joseph starts selling 8 tubs per day, it means that in x days, the number of tubs that he will sell will be
y = 8x + 3
Dwayne hasn't sold any yet. If Dwayne begins selling 9 tubs per day, it means that in x days, the number of tubs that he will sell will be
z = 9x
To determine the number of days it will take to sell the same amount of cookies, we will equate y to z. It becomes
8x + 3 = 9x
9x - 8x = 3
x = 3
The number of tubs that each will sell will be 9x = 9×3 = 27
