Answer:

X=18

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/2)*x-7 = (1/3)*(x-12) // - (1/3)*(x-12)

(1/2)*x-((1/3)*(x-12))-7 = 0

(-1/3)*(x-12)+(1/2)*x-7 = 0

x/2-1/3*(x-12)-7 = 0

(-1/3*2*(x-12))/2+x/2+(-7*2)/2 = 0

x-1/3*2*(x-12)-7*2 = 0

1/3*x-14+8 = 0

1/3*x-6 = 0

(1/3*x-6)/2 = 0

(1/3*x-6)/2 = 0 // * 2

1/3*x-6 = 0

1/3*x-6 = 0 // + 6

1/3*x = 6 // : 1/3

x = 6/1/3

x = 18

2 people working at the same rate will take 9 hours to paint a room. Assuming that they all work at this rate, how long will it
jeka57 [31]
So if 2 people take 9 hours to paint the room and you want to know how long it will take if 3 people were painting first you will have to find the slope, or the rate of change, to do this you have to divide 9/2.
9/2= 4.5
So it take 4.5 hours for one person to paint the room.
Therefore if there where three people painting it would be 3 x 4.5= 13 hours and 30 minutes.
The time it would take to paint the room would increase.
