A)

X/3 -2 = 6

Add 2 to both sides:

X/3 = 8

Multiply both sides by 3:

X = 24

B)

X/5 +1 = 5

Subtract 1 from both sides:

X/5 = 4

Multiply both sides by 5:

X = 20

Ted can clear a football field of debris in 3 hours. Jacob can clear the same field in 2 hours. When they work together, the sit
Rasek [7]

Answer:

If Ted can clear a football field of debris in 3 hours, in one hour they will have cleared 1/3 of it.

If Jacob can clear a football field of debris in 2 hours, in one hour they will have cleared 1/2 of it.

So if they work together, they will clear 1/2 + 1/3, which is 5/6, in one hour.

So the equation we get is 5/6*x = 1 and if we divide both sides by 5/6 we get that x = 1.2 hours
