1. 1/4(x+3)=12=X+3-12*4/4=X-45/4. Then, x-45/4=0. So, 1. X=45. 2. x+4/3=12=3x-32/3*3=0*3. 3x-32=0. You add 32 to each sides. 3x=32. x=32/3. Therefore, 1. x=45 and 2. x=32/3

If John can mow the lawn in 2/3 of an hour and George can mow the lawn in 1 hour, how long will they take to mow the lawn togeth

snow_tiger [21]

This is esay to do when you realize the the speed of mowing is addtive. This is if John mows at 1 lawn / (2/3) hour and Gerge mows at 1 lawn / 1hour, the total speed of mowing is:

1 / (2/3) + 1 = 3/2 + 1 = 5/2

=> 5/2 of lawn per hour

Now, the time is calcualted as the amount of lawn divided by the speed:

1 lawn / (5/2 lawn/hour) = 2/5 hour.

Answer: 2/5 of an hour.
