Given the amount of water needed to fill the cement dam and the water pump rate, the time needed to fill the dam is 400 minutes or 6hours 40minutes.

Option B)6h 40min is the correct answer.

<h3>How long does it take to fill the dam?</h3>

Given that;

  • Amount of water needed to fill the dam A = 30000 litres
  • Pump rate r = 75 litres per minute
  • Time needed to fill the dam T = ?

To determine how long it take to fill the dam, we say;

Time need = Amount of water needed ÷ Pump rate

T = A ÷ r

T = 30000 litres ÷ 75 litres/minute

T = 400 minutes

Note that; 60min = 1hrs

Hence,

T = 6hours 40minutes

Given the amount of water needed to fill the cement dam and the water pump rate, the time needed to fill the dam is 400 minutes or 6hours 40minutes.

Option B)6h 40min is the correct answer.

Joes age (j) is half Martha’s (m). Combined, their age is 42. What are their ages?
svp [43]

Answer:

Joe is 14.

Martha is 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the variables and information from the question to make equations.

If Joe's age is half Martha's:

(1/2)m = j     OR     2j = m

If their ages combined is 42:

m + j = 42

We can substitute the equation m=2j into equation m + j = 42, replacing "m".

m + j = 42    Substitute m for 2j

2j + j = 42     Combine like terms, terms with same varables

3j = 42     Divide both sides by 3 to isolate j

j = 14       Joe's age

Since j = 14, we can substitute it into equation m=2j to find "m".

m = 2j       Substitute j for 14

m = 2(14)     Simplify

m = 28       Martha's age

Therefore Joe is 14 and Martha is 28.
