Let's look at work rates per minute.
Together they can paint the wall in x minutes.
Working together, in 1 minute, they do 1/x of the job.
The student who paints the wall in 16 minutes does 1/16 of the job in 1 minute.
The student who paints the wall in 24 minutes does 1/24 of the job in 1 minute.
Together, they do 1/16 + 1/24 of the job in 1 minute, but from above, we see that together, they do 1/x of the job in 1 minute, so 1/16 + 1/24 must equal 1/x. That gives us our equation.
1/16 + 1/24 = 1/x
1/16 * 3/3 + 1/24 * 2/2 = 1/x
3/48 + 2/48 = 1/x
5/48 = 1/x
x = 48/5 = 9.6
Answer: It takes them 9.6 minutes, or about 10 minutes to do the job together.

Well, you would simply need to use the distributive property!
-(2)x-(2)2+(2)y-(2)9=1
-2x-4+2y-18=1
Then you need to add/subtract so the similar numbers are together.
-2x+2y-22=1
-2x+2y=23
x+2y=-11.5
x+y=-5.75

Please, please give brainliest, it would be greatly appreciated, I only a few more before I advance, thanks!
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
use distributive property: x^2+2x-1=4
remove the -1 by adding 1 on both sides: x^2+2x=5
use the guadratic fromula: ax²+bx+c=0
plug in the equation x^2+2x-5=0
a,b and c are the coefficients to plug into the formula
a=1, b=2, c=-1
Finally, you will find that x=2
1)
the answer is C
2)
The answer is B
3)
The answer is D
Hope this helps :)
