Answer: 72 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Pipe A can empty the water in 180 minutes = (180/60) =3 hours
Pipe A does 1/ 3 of the job in 1 hour.
Pipe B can empty the water in 120 minutes = (120/60) = 2 hours.
Pipe B does 1/ 2 of thejob in 1 hour.
Together they will do:
1/ 3 + 1/ 2 = 5/6
Together, both pipes will do 5/ 6 of the job in one hour.
To get the total time to completely drain the water will be:
= 60 ÷ 5/6
= 60 × 6/5
= 12 × 6
= 72 minutes
It takes 72 minutes to empty the pool.
Answer:
The Rule for 2 : Any whole number that ends in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 will be divisible by 2. This is the number four hundred fifty-six thousand, seven hundred ninety-one, eight hundred twenty-four. We can tell if 2 divides into this number without a remainder by just looking at the last digit.

Answer:
B. 24
Step-by-step explanation:
it takes 60 minutes for one and 40 for another. since you don't know the time. the denominator is going to be x. The equation to solve this problem will be x/60 + x/40 = 1. Since you're adding, you want to have the same denominator. ( i chose to do 120) this will change the problem to 2x/120 + 3x/120 = 1. which will simplify to 5x/120=1. Multiply each side by 120 to get 5x=120 and divide each side by 5 to get x=24.
Answer:
x = -35
Step-by-step explanation:
add 3 to both sides.
x - 3 + 3 = -17 + 3
x = -14
multiply both sides by 
.
() · (x) = () · (-14)
x = -35
