Answer:

7.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The key here is to find out how much can be done in the same amount ot time

the least common multiple of 5 hrs and 3 hrs is 15hrs

In 15 hours:

- At 5 hours per lawn Norton could mow 15/5 = 3 lawns

- At 3 hours per lawn together thay could mow 15/3 = 5 lawns

In 15 hours Jesse would mow 5 - 3 = 2 lawns

15 hours/ 2 lawns = 7.5 hours per lawn

7.5 hours

--------------------

Here's the math

1 lawn/5hrs + x = 1 lawn / 3hrs

1/5 + x = 1/3

Subtract 1/5 from both sides

x = 1/3 - 1/5

x = 5/15 - 3/15

x = 2/15

x = 2lawns/15 hrs

15hrs/2lawns = 7.5 hrs per lawn

7.5 hours

Solve the inequality.<br> 4│x + 5│ - 2 ≤ 10
castortr0y [4]

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this absolute value inequality,

our goal is to get the absolute value by itself on one side of the inequality.

So start by adding 2 to both sides and we have 4|x + 5| ≤ 12.

Now divide both sides by 3 and we have |x + 5| ≤ 3.

Now the the absolute value is isolated, we can split this up.

The first inequality will look exactly like the one

we have right now except for the absolute value.

For the second one, we flip the sign and change the 3 to a negative.

So we have x + 5 ≤ 3 or x + 5 ≥ -3.

Solving each inequality from here, we have x ≤ -2 or x ≥ -8.
