Jaqleen unloads a truck in x hours and Marco takes 2x hours.

Working together (x*2x) / (x+2x) = 5 hours

2x^2 / 3x = 5  Multiplying both sides by 3x equals 2x^2 -15x = 0

x = 7.5 hours

So Jaqleen takes 7.5 hours and Marco takes 15 hours

Double-Check (7.5 * 15) / (7.5 + 15) = 112.5 / 22.5 equals

5 hours Correct!!
