Working together, Sam and Charlie can change all the light bulbs in the office building in 3 hours. It would have taken Charlie 8 hours to do the job alone. A table showing Rate in part per hour, Time in hours, and Part of Light Bulbs Changed. The first row shows, Sam, and has r, 3, and r times 3. The second row shows Charlie, and has StartFraction 1 Over 8 EndFraction, 3 and StartFraction 1 Over 8 EndFraction times 3.
Which equation can be used to solve for the rate, r, for Sam to change all the light bulbs in the office building by himself?

3r = 3 r equals StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction.
3r + 3 r plus StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction equals 1. = 1
r + StartFraction 1 Over 3 EndFraction r plus StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction r equals 1.r = 1
r + StartFraction 1 Over 3 EndFraction r plus StartFraction 1 Over 8 EndFraction r equals 1.r = 1

B

3r + 3/8=1

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
