Katework+jeanwork=6
work alone
Katework=-5+Jeanwork
ad 5 to both sides
Katework+5=jeanwork
subsitute 5+katework for jeanwork
5+katework+kateworkwork=6
subtract 5 from both sides
2katework=1
divide both sides by 2
katework=0.5days

equation would be
jeanwork+katework=6 and
katework=jeanwork-5 are the equations

(x + a)/(ax) = b/x
a= 2
b = 5
(x + 2) /(2x) = 5/x
cross multiply
x * (x+2) = (2x)*5
x^2 + 2x = 10x
x^2 - 8x = 0
x ( x -8) = 0
We get two solutions
x = 0, 8
the solution 0 is extraneous
the solution 8 is valid.
