a = 7
b = 3
7² + 3² = c²
14 + 9 = c²
√(23) = c

Harry can rake the leaves in the yard 8 hours faster than his little brother Jimmy can.
<span>If they join to work together they can complete the job in 3 hours. </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x - 8) = 1/3 </span>
<span>3(x - 8) + 3x = x(x - 8) </span>
<span>x^2 - 14x + 24 = 0 </span>
<span>(x - 12)(x - 2) = 0 </span>
<span>Solutions: </span>
<span>x = 2 </span>
<span>x = 12 </span>
<span>Jimmy can complete the job on his own in 12 hours.</span>

(1/3)x=3+(1/4)x
is the same as
(4/12)x=(36/12)+(3/12)x
subtract the 3/12x from each side
(1/12)x=36/12
multiply by 12 on each side
x=36
