It could be anything they are both variables.
X= number of hours would it take Jason to wash the van by himself.
2x=number of hours would it take Wendy to wash the van by herserlf.
<span>we calcaulate the fraction of work by Jason during one hour </span>
x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / x hours=1/x
we calculate the fraction of work by Wendy during one hour.
2x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / 2x hours=1/2x
We can suggest this equation:
2 hours(fraction of work by Jason during one hour + fraction of work by Wendy during one hour)=1 work
2(1/x + 1/2x)=1
least common multiple=2x
2(2+1)=2x
2(3)=2x
6=2x
x=6/2
x=3
answer: 3 hours would ti take Jason to wash the van by himself.
For the domain
3-x >= 0
3 >= x
(4y³ + 4y²+8)(6y - 4)
Simplify.
24y⁴ - 16y³ + 24y³ - 16y² + 48y - 32
Add like terms.
24y⁴ + (-16y³ + 24y³) -16y² + 48 - 32
Simplify.
24y⁴ + 8y³ - 16y³ + 16
~Hope I helped!~
