Combined rates
Susan = 2 car / 3 hr
= 2/3
Joe = 3 car / 4 hr
= 3/4
add the rates to get the new combined rate as 17 cars in "t" hours.
2/3 + 3/4 = 17/t
Need common denominator
2/3(4/4) + 3/4(3/3) = 17/t
8/12 + 9/12 = 17/t
17/12 = 17/t
see that "t" is 12 hours

Area of rectangular barn = 200 (sqft)
Length= Width + 10
Length x Width = 200 ==> (Width+10)Width = 200
Width² +10Width -200 = 0===> width = 10 ===> length = 20
