"Jake can mulch a garden in 30 minutes." So, for 1 min Jake can mulch 1/30 part of a garden.
Ross can mulch the park for x minutes. So, for 1 min Jake can mulch 1/x part of a garden.
If they work together, for 1 min they will mulch (1/30 + 1/x) part of the garden.
At the same time, we know, that of they work together they can mulch the garden in 16 min, so for 1 min they will mulch 1/16 part of the garden.
Now, we can write an equation
x≈34.3 (min)
