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.
You can tell if the equation is linear or not if the equation makes a straight line on a graph.
Answer:
I do not understand.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please add a picture of explain what it is you want help with.
At this moment I do not understand the question, I am sorry.
You would make a fraction with circles on the top which would be 76. Then you would add 22 to 76 and get 97 because that is the number of all of the shapes. That would mean your fraction would be 76/97. If u want to simplify that is up to you.
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(-3+ x) = -4
Distribute
-2 * -3 + (-2) *x = -4
6 -2x = -4
Subtract 6 from each side
6 -2x-6 = -4-6
-2x = -10
Divide each side by -2
-2x/-2 = -10/-2
x = 5
