Let t be the time for Paul to do the job alone.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "_______________work rate________time__________job
\n" ); document.write( "Ron___________(___)_____________t+2___________1
\n" ); document.write( "Paul__________(___)______________t____________1
\n" ); document.write( "Together______(___)______________5_____________1\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Rate*Time=Job, fill in the missing rate information.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "_______________work rate________time__________job
\n" ); document.write( "Ron___________1/(t+2)_____________t+2___________1
\n" ); document.write( "Paul__________1/t_________________t____________1
\n" ); document.write( "Together______1/5_________________5_____________1\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The rates of both working together are simply additive. Solve for t. Use it to compute each person's rate.
