Answer: 8x = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the information given is that Francis plants an orchard of peach trees and that he plants 56 trees in 8 equal rows, the equation that represents this situation if x is the number of trees in each row will be:

(8 × x) = 56

8x = 56

Therefore, to know the number of trees in each row, we've to find the value of x. This will be:

8x = 56

x = 56/8

x = 7

Therefore, the number of trees in each row is 7.

Dave can complete a sales route by himself in 4 hours. James can do the same job in 5 hours. How long will it take them to do it
Alexeev081 [22]
We can solve this problem by calculating the individual rate of working and equate it to their total rate of working.

If Dave can complete a sales route in 4 hours, then his working rate is

\frac{1}{4}

Also, if James can do it in 5 hours, then his working rate is

\frac{1}{5}

Let
x
be the hours that both will use to complete the sales route,

Then rate at which both completes this task is
\frac{1}{x}


Meaning if we add their individual rates we should get

\frac{1}{x}

That is;

\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1}{x}

The LCM is
20x

So let us multiply through with the LCM.

20x \times \frac{1}{4} + 20x \times \frac{1}{5} =20x \times \frac{1}{x}

5x + 4x = 20

We simplify to get,

9x = 20

Dividing through by 9 gives;

x = \frac{20}{9}

x = 2\frac{1}{9}

Therefore the two will complete sales route in
2 \frac{1}{9}
hours.
