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

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to divide 6.4 by 2.4 to get 2.66666666667.

Then you multiply 2.66666666667 and 0.9 to get 2.4

When x = 6.4, y = 2.4
