Frank can build a fence in twice the time it would take Sandy. Working together, they can build it in 7 hours. How long will it take each of them to do it alone?
Answer
If Frank and Sandy can build the fence in 7 hours, they must be building
1
7
of the fence every hour.
Now, let the amount of time it takes Sandy be
x
hours so that Frank takes
2
x
hours. Sandy can build
1
x
of the fence every hour and Frank can build
1
2
x
of the fence every hour.
We now have the following equation to solve.

Answer:
35 pounds of tea for 80 cents.
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation::
value + value = value
80x + 60(50-x) = 74*50
80x + 60*50 - 60x = 74*50
20x = 14*50
x = 35 lbs (amt. of 80 cent tea to use)
50-x = 15 lbs (amt. of 60 cent tean to use)
