Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To start, you want to isolate x.
To do so, get all the x terms to one side.
2x + 1 = 4x - 3
Subtract -4x on both sides.
-2x + 1 = -3
Then, subtract 1 on both sides.
-2x = -4
Finally, divide -2 on both sides.
x = 2
Let n be the amount of time it takes william to cut the lawn. Then Shelly takes
n-2 hours. So:
1/n+1/n-2=1/3
3(n-2)+3n=n²-2n
6n-6=n²-2n
n²-8n+6=0
Using the quadratic formula, we get a positive value of 7.1623 hrs as the amount of time william takes working alone, and 5.1623 as the amount of time Shelly takes working alone
