2x+7=3x+3 is a linear equation with on solution
The answer is (-7.5, -7.5)
You can make an equation with this information using a variable for the number of days and solve for that variable. Here we can use d to represent days.
Ryan can build 4 desks in a day, so you could express his production as 4d.
Larry can build 4 desks in 2 days, so you could say he makes 2 desks in 1 day, expressed as 2d.
If Larry starts work one day before Ryan, he's made an extra 2 desks. To get 32 desks, you need to add together those 2 desks Larry made, however many desks Larry can make, and however many desks Ryan can make:
2 + 4d + 2d = 32.
Then just simplify and solve:
6d = 30
d = 5.
It'll take 5 days for them to make 32 desks. Hope this helps! Please rate this answer as brainliest if you liked it!! thank you!!!

Hey there!
Rafiq's error was that the other number is also changing. He had 4 x 8 and if he had 8 x 8, that would be twice as much, but he used 8 x 12 instead, and 12 is not 8.
Let me know if this helps :)
