Question 1170322: Formulate a quadratic equation then answer what is asked in the problem.
John can answer all the problem solving in the activity in Math 9 module within 24 hours alone. But Justine can answer it 4 hours more than John. How long will it take Justine to answer? How many hours to finish answering the activity if they worked together? Found 2 solutions by josgarithmetic, ikleyn:Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Means, John needs 24 hours alone and Justine needs 28 hours alone.
(You say "within 24 hour" so maybe you need an inequality instead of equations.)
(I'm ignoring the "within" part.)
John
Justine
If both together, speed is , units of PROBLEM SET per HOURS.
Work with it!
Actually if question was only How long will it take Justine to answer, that was already given almost plainly. She needs no more than 28 hours.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To solve this problem, quadratic equation is not needed.
Moreover, quadratic equation has no any relation to this problem.
God, save us from such teachers,
who themselves know nothing,
but, nevertheless, compose nonsensical Math "problems"
and disseminate them in the Internet.
