Answer:

B)

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{3}x+2=7x

Subtract (1/3)x form both sides

\frac{1}{3}x+2-\frac{1}{3}x=7x-\frac{1}{3}x\\\\2=7x-\frac{1}{3}x\\\\2=\frac{7*3}{1*3}x-\frac{1}{3}x\\\\2=\frac{21}{3}x-\frac{1}{3}x\\\\2=\frac{20}{3}x\\\\\frac{20}{3}x=2\\\\x=2*\frac{3}{20}\\\\x=\frac{3}{10}

Three workers have to do a certain job. The first worker can finish the job in 8 hours. The second worker can finish the job in
Ainat [17]

This means that...

the first worker does 1/8 of the job each hour.

the second worker does 1/4 of the job each hour.

the third worker does 1/4 of the job each hour.

So together they get 1/8+1/4+1/4 of the job done per hour.

Rate: 5/8 of the job per hour

Now if we know the rate, the job will be finished in...

1/(5/8) hours ----> 1.6 hours or 1 hour and 36 minutes

answer: 1.6 hours or 1 hour and 36 minutes
