It is helpful to first plug this in to point-slope form (note that there are other ways to do this).
Using the form
, you get

Remark
There is no short way to do this problem and no obvious way to get the answer other that to solve each part.
Solve
A
Multiply by 2
x + 1.6 = 2(x + 0.1) Remove the brackets
x + 1.6 = 2x + 0.1*2
x + 1.6 = 2x + 0.2 Subtract x from both sides
1.6 = x + 0.2 Subtract 0.2 from both sides
1.6 - 0.2 = x
1.4 = x
Circle A
B
Subtract 2x from both sides.
3x - 2x = 1.4
Circle B
C
Remove the brackets.
4x + 6 = 2x - 6 Add 6 to both sides
4x + 12 = 2x Subtract 4x from both sides.
12 = -2x Divide by - 2
12/-2 = x
x = - 6 Don't circle C
D
I'm going to be very scant in my solution of this. You can fill in the steps.
3x = 4.2
x = 4.2/3
x = 1.4
Circle D
Answer: 12 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Working together, it takes Sam, Jenna, and Francisco two hours to paint one room.
When Sam works alone, he can paint one room in 6 hours. When Jenna works alone, she can paint one room in 4 hours.
Let 't' be the time taken by Francisco to paint one room on his own.
Then , we have
Rate of work of Sam +Rate of work of Jenna + Rate of work of Francisco =Rate of work they all do together
i.e.
i.e.
i.e.
i.e.
i.e.
i.e.
i.e. t= 12
Hence, Francisco would take 12 hours to paint one room on his own.
