Basically its 250 + 16x = 210 + 18x where x = the number of hours doing the job.
Solving, we get 40 = 2x, x =20
The jobs has to be 20 hours long in order for their two painting jobs to be equally priced.

Regroup terms
Add 2x to both sides
Simplify 4 - x + 2x to 4 + x
subtract 4 from both sides
subtract -6 - 4.
Answer: x = -10
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of mangoes owned by Tulsa be T and that by Julie be J
If Tulsa has 4 times as many mangoes as Julie then
T = 4J
Tulsa bought 6 more mangoes. She now has 5 time as many mangoes as Julie
T + 6 = 5J
Solve both equations simultaneously by substitution
4J + 6 = 5J
Collect like terms
6 = 5J- 4J
J = 6
Since
T = 4J
T = 4 * 6
= 24
Hence Tulsa had 24 mangoes at first
