Let's say Bailey takes "b" days to paint it.
and Andrew takes "a" days to paint the same house.
now, Andrew is 6 times faster than Bailey, therefore, if Andrew takes "a" days to do it, Bailey takes then "6a" days, or b = 6a.
now, the year they worked together, they finished it in 7 days.
so, after 1 day then, they have only done 1/7 of the whole work.
and Andrew for one day, has done 1/a of the house, whilst Bailey has done 1/b of the house or 1/(6a).

Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
16 + (18 + 10) = (x + 18) + 10x
16 + 28 = (x + 18) + 10x Add like terms in the parentheses
44 = (x + 10x) + 18 Use the community property to regroup like
terms
44 = 11x + 18 Simply
<u>-18 = -18</u> Substract 18 from both side
26 = 11x Simply
<u>26</u> = <u>11x</u> Divide by 11
11 11
