Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Time taken by Sam = 3 hours

Sam's rate = 1/3

Time taken : Sam + Laura = 2 hours

Sam's rate + Laura's rate = 1/2

Let time taken by Laura = x

1/3 + 1/x = 1/2

1/x = 1/2 - 1/3

1/x = (3 - 2) / 6

1/x = 1 /6

x = 6

Hencw, it will take 6 hours for Laura alone to rake leaves

guapka [62]

Answer:

Please mark be brainliest and I hoped this helped!

x = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is an isosceles triangle, that means that x, and the angle opposite from x, are the same. We take 135° and subtract that from 180°. That gives us 45°. Since the angle opposing x is 45°, then x is 45° as well.
