Answer:

  48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of filling from both pipes is the sum of the rates in units of tanks per hour. We want the time for 2/3 of a tank.

<h3>Sum of rates</h3>

The sum of the filling rates is ...

  rate A + rate B = (1/3) tank/hour + (1/2) tank/hour = 5/6 tank/hour

<h3>Fill time</h3>

The time to fill a tank or part thereof will be the number of tanks divided by the rate in tanks per hour:

  time = (2/3 tank)/(5/6 tank/hour) = ((4/6)/(5/6)) hour = 4/5 hour

There are 60 minutes in an hour, so the fill time is ...

  (4/5 hour)×(60 min/hour) = 48 min

It will take 48 minutes for both pipes to fill 2/3 of the tank.

Algebra is number 3 - You have subtracted the measure of angle HKI from the equation.

Transitive property of equality is number 2 - Because both pairs of angles equal 180 degrees, you can set them equal to each other.

Definition of congruence is number 4 - The congruence symbol is in the equation, which tells you that the two angles are congruent.

Angles forming a linear pair sum to 180 degrees is number 1 - 180 degrees is in the equations given and the angles all form linear pairs.

Hope this helps!! :)

0.2x + (-0.9) + 1.7 = 9.6<br> 0.2x + 0.8 = 9.6
user100 [1]

Answer:44

Step-by-step explanation:

0.2x+(-0.9)+1.7==9.6

0.2x+0.8=9.6

Subtract 0.8 from both sides

0.2x+0.8-0.8=9.6-0.8

0.2x=8.8

Divide both sides by 0.2

0.2x ➗ 0.2=8.8 ➗ 0.2

x=44
