X= number of hours would it take Jason to wash the van by himself.
2x=number of hours would it take Wendy to wash the van by herserlf.
<span>we calcaulate the fraction of work by Jason during one hour </span>
x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / x hours=1/x
we calculate the fraction of work by Wendy during one hour.
2x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / 2x hours=1/2x
We can suggest this equation:
2 hours(fraction of work by Jason during one hour + fraction of work by Wendy during one hour)=1 work
2(1/x + 1/2x)=1
least common multiple=2x
2(2+1)=2x
2(3)=2x
6=2x
x=6/2
x=3
answer: 3 hours would ti take Jason to wash the van by himself.
Answer:
(y-(-2))/(x-(-1)= (-2-4)/(-1-3)
(y+2)/(x+1)= (-6)/(-4)
(y+2)/(x+1)= (3/2)
Cross multiplying
2y+4= 3x+3
3x-2y-1=0
Answer:
They all equal zero
Step-by-step explanation:
A number cannot equal itself times any number that isn't zero, unless it itself is zero.
