Im assuming the problem is x^2-16, which would be factored to (x-4)(x+4)
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: ( 0, 2 )
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to put coordinates of each graph on these equations y = -x + 2 and y = (1/2)x + 2. If putting coordinates satisfies both equations, then that coordinate will be the solution.
For example, let's put (0, 2) to equations.
y = -x + 2
2 = -0 + 2
2 = 2, true
y = (1/2)x + 2
2 = (1/2) × 0 + 2
2 = 2, true
So, ( 0, 2 ) is the solution.
The answer is 0. While the answer for n is approximately 2.384503, there are no EXTRANEOUS solutions. Again, the answer is a.) 0
