Answer:

1/3 - 1/x=1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total work be "1"

                        Brody          Hudson              Brody+Hudson

  Time              3 mins            x min                       5 min

  Efficiency        1/3                   -1/x                          1/5

The efficiency of Hudson is negative as he is taking out the candies out of the bowl, since efficiency of Brody + efficiency of Hudson = efficiency of both, which means,

1/3 - 1/x = 1/5....

How many solutions does this linear system have?
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

One solution: (2.5,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use substitution for the solution. Substitute y=2x-5 to -8x-4y=-20 so that you end up with -8x-8x+20=-20. Next you want to add like terms which will be -16x+20=-20, next you want isolate x by subtracting 20 from both sides and leaves you with -16x=-40. Divide -16 on both sides to fully isolate x and will leave you with x=2.5. Now substiture in 2.5 for x in y=2x-5 to get y=2(2.5)-5 which will then lead to y=0.
