We can’t see the rotation
Harry can rake the leaves in the yard 8 hours faster than his little brother Jimmy can.
<span>If they join to work together they can complete the job in 3 hours. </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x - 8) = 1/3 </span>
<span>3(x - 8) + 3x = x(x - 8) </span>
<span>x^2 - 14x + 24 = 0 </span>
<span>(x - 12)(x - 2) = 0 </span>
<span>Solutions: </span>
<span>x = 2 </span>
<span>x = 12 </span>
<span>Jimmy can complete the job on his own in 12 hours.</span>
Answer:
y= -x+10
Step-by-step explanation:
ok, so the basic formula is y=mx+b
m=slope and b= the intercept
the line crosses the y-axis at 10, so we know that 10=b. it is a downward going slope, so its negative. the formula for slope is rise/run, or in our case, fall/run. for every 2 it falls, it runs 2. that is -2/2, which can be simplified to -1. looking at the graph , it's hard to comprehend the question at first and it took me multiple times looking at the graph. I hope I helped some!
(1 + x) (13) = 13+6.5
13x + 13 = 19.5
13x = 6.5
x = 0.5

Y=3x-2
y=3(4)-2
y=12-2
y=10
I hope this helps.
