Ok so Irina can paint a room in 9 hours and paula can paint the same room in 8 hours, write an equation that represents how many hours itll take for them to paint the same room together
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think.. 1/9+1/8=1/x..=3.73
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think thats right, i just need another opinion..

Anyone:( ?
Nnesha (nnesha):
wait..
Nnesha (nnesha):
welll hmm i think
if Irina paints a room in 9 hours and puala in 8 hours
if both paint same room together then it would take half of 9+8
Nnesha (nnesha):
9+8 =17/2
Nnesha (nnesha):
you know what
just solve each equation
you will get the answer :-)

equation is 1/9 + 1/8 = 1 ; 3.73
solve 1/9 +1/8 =1/x is it equal to 3.73 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ehh!! it gives me a fraction..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No it doesnt add up to that:/

now solve 2nd option
9/x+8/x=1;8.5 hours
9/x + 8/x =1
is it equal to 8.5 ??
Nnesha (nnesha):
and then last one
x/9+x/8=1; 4.24 hours
x/9 + x/8 =1
is it equal to 4.24 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The last one..
Nnesha (nnesha):
