It’ll take 3 days to paint the house together
Daniel [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

1/6 + 1/5 = 1/x,  3 days

Step-by-step explanation:

a) x days will take to paint the house together.

b) 1/6 part of the house, Noah paints for 1 day.

1/5 part of the house, Owen paints for 1 day

1/x part of the house they paint for 1 day together, and also we can write that

(1/6 + 1/5) part of the house they paint for 1 day together.

So, we can write equation

1/6 + 1/5 = 1/x

c) 1/6 + 1/5 = 1/x

30x*1/6 + 30x*1/5 = 30x*1/x

5x + 6x = 30

11x = 30

x = 30/11 ≈2.72 ≈ 3 days

Solve equation using square roots (x-1)^2=4
Aneli [31]
X is equal 3. to do this, you do reverse of order of operations. So this means that you would to the 'times 2' first by dividing 4 by 2 to make it 2. then, in the parenthesis, since there is a 'minus 1', therefore you are going to add 1+2 which equals three.  <span />
