Question 1045287: Dear Teacher,
Would appreciate for your advise on below question -is difficult to understand, pls help to show steps.......thanks hendor
QA)
The older model of this new printer can only print at a fixed rate of 1080 pages per hour.If the new printer is allowed to print at maximum speed, and both the old and new printer are turned on at the same time, how long would it take for both printers, working together , to print a stack of 2752 pages?


QB)
The new printer's speed is now set to match that of the old printer to save power and another printer of the same printing speed is bought .If all three are turned on this time, how many pages can they print in one and a half hours?

Information for the description is missing.

QA:
Which Printer            RATE           TIME         PAGES

OLD                      1080            t

NEW                       R              t

Total                                                2752


Basic work rates rule is like r*T=W for rate, TIME, and amount of work here in unit of "pages".

Continuing to fill the table,
Which Printer            RATE           TIME         PAGES

OLD                      1080            t           1080t

NEW                       R              t           Rt

Total                                                2752

Showing the reasoning for equation .

Two unknown variables and one equation.
How long of time will this job be?
