The problem description and question not very well written, but this follows rule R*T=W to relate rate R, time T, amount of jobs or work W.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Amount of time for the job done, 1 day;
\n" ); document.write( "amount of jobs done, 1, for \"one house to be painted\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If time for B alone to do the job is x, then rate is $\"1%2Fx\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( "Rate for A is $\"6%2Fx\"$ .\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight_green%28%286%2Fx%2B1%2Fx%29%2A1=1%29\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for x, amount of time for B to do the job alone.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "B can paint the house in 7 days.
