Ok so pete lays 10 more than jim per hour
pete and jim laid same amount of tiles
j=jim's rate
p=pete's rate
6j=5p
but pete lays 10 tile per hour faster so
p=10+j
sub
6j=5(10+j)
6j=50+5j
minus 5j both sides
j=50
jim can lay at 50 tiles per hour
In this expression you would have to use the PEMDAS method. First divide, so (5 divided by 8) + (2 divided by 9).
The answer you would get is: (0.625) + (0.222)
The final answer is: 0.847
1. Divide both sides by 2
2. Add 16 to each side
Answer x > -2
Best Answer: <span> w1•d1 = w2•d2
150•`15 = 300 d2
2250 = 300 d2
d2 = 2250 ÷ 300 = 7.5 ft </span>
