Please Help! Megan can paint three times faster than Julie. Together they can paint in 2 hours. How long would it take each of them alone? Which equation can be used to solve this?
(1/x)+(1/3x)=2
2(1/x)+2(1/3x)=1
(1/x)+(1/3x)=1
4(1/x)+2(1/3x)=1

The second one

2(1/x) + 2(1/3x) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1/x + 1/(3x) = 1/2

multiply both sides by 2

2(1/x) + 2(1/(3x) = 1

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.

total of apples - take away four

6-4 = 2

answer is 2 apples
