You should try both points
put x=5/2 and y=3
5-2=3
the first one is on the graph
put x=3/2 and y=20
3-40/3≠3
the second one is not on the graph
Cody ALONE = 8 hours
Kaitlyn ALONE = 6 hours
Let Joseph ALONE take j hours
Cody ALONE in 1 HOUR = 1/8 of the work Kaitlyn ALONE in 1 hour = 1/6 of the work Joseph ALONE in 1 HOUR = 1/j of the work
Since TOGETHER they take X hours, in 1 hour TOGETHER they complete 1 / X of the work
1/8 + 1/6 + 1/j = 1/X
1/j = 1/X - 1/8 - 1/6 = (24 - 3X - 4X ) /24X = (24 - 7X ) / 24X
j = 24X / ( 24- 7X )
After completing the work value of X will be known , calculate j from the above formula ANSWER
0.3(4x-8)-0.5(2.4x+4)
1.2x-2.4-1.2x+2
x-0.4
The answer should be
12t^2 - 14t
Let me know if it’s right.
