Answer:
12x=10(25+x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Jim's rate=x
Pete's rate=y
Jim and Pete lays the same number of tiles.
So we have,
12x=10y
Pete's can lay 25 more tiles than Jim per hour
We have
y=25+x
Substitute y=25+x into 12x=10y
12x=10y
12x=10(25+x)
12x=250+10x
12x-10x=250
2x=250
x=250/2
=125
x=125
12x=10(25+x) is the equation used to find the rate that Jim can lay tiles
