x = ali work rate (jobs/hr)
\n" ); document.write( "y = susan work rate (jobs/hr)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "rate = work/time
\n" ); document.write( "time = work/rate
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "rate working together:
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 1/9 + 1/5
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "time working together:
\n" ); document.write( "time = 1/(x + y) = 1/( 1/9 + 1/5 )
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "answer:
\n" ); document.write( "time = 3.21428571429 hours
