X+2> _ 5, x >_5-2, x>_3
-x-2>_5, x<_ -2-5, x<_-7
the last is the answer
8x+12=p so you would take away 12 from p making the equation 8x=p-12 and then divide that by 8 so the equation is x= p-12/8 ( x equals p minus 12 over 8)
Answer: 8 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the time taken by each person to paint the fence.
Given: Tom and Becky can paint Jim's fence together in 12 hours.
Since all people paint at the same rate, then we have the following equation ;-

Now, the time taken by all three paint together:-

Hence, it would take 8 hours if all three paint together.
