A swimming pool holds 12,500 gallons of water at the start of the day. A valve at the bottom of the pool releases water into a c

leaning tank at a constant rate of 20 gallons per hour. A hose is running water into the pool at a constant rate of 60 gallons per hour. On one day, the hose was running for 3 hours, and the valve was left open for 6 hours. How much water is in the pool at the end of the day?

Answer:

12,680 gallons at the end of the day

Step-by-step explanation:

The valve that releases water into the cleaning tank is 20 gallons per hour. The hose that is running water into the pool is 60 gallons per hour.

60 gallons x 3 hours = 60 gallons from the hose.

20 gallons x 6 hours = 120 gallons from the valve.

60 + 120 gallons = 180 gallons.

12,500 = how much was at the start of the day

180 = how much was added

180 + 12,500 = 12,680

this should be correct! i hope this helps you!

An experimental population of fruit flies increases according to the law of exponential growth. There were 60 flies after the 2n
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

There were 10 flies originally

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have an exponential growth, we will be having a constant percentage of increase and we can set up the increase at any day using the following equation;

V = I(1+r)^d

where V is the number of flies on a particular day

I is the initial number of flies

r is the constant increase in percentage

and d is the number of days.

So we have for the second day;

60 = I(1+r)^2 ••••••(i)

For the fourth day, we have;

360 = I(1+r)^4 ••••••••(ii)

divide equation ii by i; we have;

360/60 = (1+r)^4/(1+r)^2

6 = (1+r)^2

(√6)^2 = (1+r)^2

1 + r = √6

r = √6 - 1

So we can substitute the value of r in any of the equations to get I which is the initial number of flies

Let’s use equation 1

60 = I(1 + r)^2

60 = I(1 + √6 -1)^2

60 = I(√6)^2

60 = 6I

I = 60/6

I = 10 flies

Alia has a AED 20 gift card for an online music store. All songs at the store have the same price. After Alia buys 3 songs, the
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Remaining balance = AED 13.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount of gift card = AED 20

Amount left after buying 3 songs = AED 16.25

Cost of 3 songs = 20 - 16.25 = AED 3.75

Cost per song = \frac{3.75}{3}

Cost per song = AED 1.25

Cost of 5 songs = 5(1.25) = AED 6.25

Remaining balance = 20 - 6.25 = AED 13.75

Hence,

Remaining balance = AED 13.75
