<span>Let us first find a ratio between the quantity of work done by Darnell and Julius. If Darnell does one part of the work, Julius does two parts of the work. That is, their work quantity ratio is 1:2. (Total 3 parts) In other words when Darnell does 1/3 of the work, Julius does 2/3 of the work.
When they work together, the work is completed in 4 hours. 4 hours work is the combined output of 1/3 by Darnell and 2/3 by Julius. If Julius was not there, Darnell would have to work for more than 4 hours.
We already know that Darnell does only 1/3 of a work during any given time. If the given time is 4 hours, how many one-thirds will Darnell require? To find the answer, divide the given number (4 hours in this case) by the given fraction( 1/3 in this case) To divide a number by a fraction, multiply the number by the reciprocal of the fraction. Thus it becomes 4 divided by 1/3 = 4 x 3/1 = 12.
(Another hint: At the rate of 1/3 of a work in one hour, Darnell will needs 3 hours to complete the given task. If the given work is 4 hours long, Darnell will take 4 x 3 hours, that is 12 hours.)</span>
3x - 3y + 9 = 0
The y-intercept is the point on the graph where it crosses the y-axis, and has coordinates of (0, b). It is also the value of y when x = 0.
To solve for the y-intercept, set x = 0:
3(0) - 3y + 9 = 0
3(0) - 3y + 9 = 0
Subtract 9 from both sides:
- 3y + 9 - 9 = 0 - 9
- 3y = -9
Divide both sides by -3 to solve for y:
-3y/-3 = -9/-3
y = 3
Therefore, the y-intercept is (0, 3).
The x-intercept is the point on the graph where it crosses the x-axis, and has coordinates of (a, 0). It is also the value of x when y = 0.
To solve for the x-intercept, set y = 0:
3x - 3(0)+ 9 = 0
3x -0 + 9 = 0
Subtract 9 from both sides:
3x + 9 - 9 = 0 - 9
3x = -9
Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x:
3x/3 = -9/3
x = -3
Therefore, the x-intercept is (-3,0).
The correct answers are:
Y-intercept = (0, 3)
X-intercept = (-3, 0)
The fraction which is equivalent to 6/12 is 1/2
What does a fraction mean?
In the first place, fraction is a numerical quantity or relationship where one number is expressed in terms of another.
In order to determine the equivalence of 6/12 in fraction , we need reduce 6/12 to the lowest term, since 6 is common to 6 and 12 and that 6 divided by gives 1 and 12/6 gives 2, which means that we are left 1/2
The correct fraction which is equivalent to 6/12 is 1/2

Answer:
There are 3 adults in the family.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations 8x + 4y = 32 and 16x + 12y = 72 represent the cost of lunch and dinner for a family in which x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.
We have to find the number of adults or the value of x by solving these equations.
equations are 8x + 4y = 32 -------(1)
16x + 12y = 72 --------(2)
Now we will multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract it by equation 2.
(16x + 12y) -3(8x + 4y) = 72 - 96
16x + 12y - 24x - 12y = -24
(16x - 24x) + (12y - 12y) = -24
-8x = - 24
8x = 24
x = 3
Therefore, there are 3 adults in the family.
