Answer:

It seems that your options aren't correct as the right answer is -5.3333... (recurring)

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  2x + 4 = 20 + 5x   (subtract by the smallest unknown)

  -2x                  -2x

2)  4        = 20 + 3x

    -20      -20    (now subtract each side by 20 as we want to leave the unknown on one side and another number on the other side.

3) -16       = 3x   (Divide each side by 3)

   ÷3        = ÷3

4) -5.33333... = x

<h3>Now we have found x but if you're unsure you can substitute to see if your answer is correct.</h3><h3>2 x -5.3333 + 4 = -6.6666</h3><h3>20 + 5 x -5.3333= -6.6665</h3><h3>Our answer is correct! (When answers are rounded, it is equal to the same thing).</h3>

With two reapers operating, a field can be harvested in 1 h. If only the newer reaper is used, the crop can be harvested in 1.2
kolezko [41]

<u>Answer:</u>

The older repear will harvest in 6 hrs

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given a field can be harvested in 1 hr with 2 reapers

Consider the total field to be 1

Let x be the time of older’s reaper

The field can be harvested in 1.2 hr with newer reaper alone

Older’s time of harvesting = \frac{1}{x} per hour

Newer’s time of harvesting = \frac{1}{1.2}per hour

Total (Older+Newer) = 1 = {\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{1.2}}

 \frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{1.2}=1

 \frac{1.2+x}{1.2 x}=1

1.2 + x = 1.2x

1.2 = 0.2x

x = 6

Therefore, older repear will harvest in 6 hrs
