Tamara and Jason work at a widget factory. Tamara arrived at work before Jason and began making widgets. Tamara had already made 20 widgets when Jason began his work. Tamara was producing widgets at a rate of 8 widgets per hour. Jason was able to produce widgets at a rate of 12 widgets per hour. At some point, Tamara and Jason will have produced the same number of widgets. Part A:
Write a system of equations to represent the situation. Let x = hours and y = widgets.

Part B:
How much time does it take for Tamara and Jason to produce the same number of widgets?

Part C:
How many widgets will Tamara and Jason have produced?

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

24−3x=−27

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

24−3x=−27

24+−3x=−27

−3x+24=−27

step 2: subtract 24 from both sides.

−3x+24−24=−27−24

−3x=−51

step 3: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

−51

−3

x=17

answer:

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116

answer: 800
