k=-3

1) Let's solve for k, the following expression:

2(1 - 5k) = 2k + 38 Distribute the factor 2

2 -10k = 2k +38 Subtract 2 from both sides and 2k

-10k -2k = 38 -2

-12k = 36 Divide by -1

12k=-36 Divide both sides by 12

k= -3

2) So k is equal to -3 in this equation.

One hose can fill a goldfish pond in 36 minutes, and two hoses can fill the same pond in 20 minutes. Find how long it takes the

rjkz [21]

Answer:

45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that one hose can fill a goldfish pond in 36 minute

So the the first hose can fill goldfish pond $\frac{1}{36}$ per minute

When both fill together then they fill in 20 minutes

So the the both hose can fill goldfish pond $\frac{1}{20}$ per minute

Let Goldfish pond filled by second hose $\frac{1}{x}$ per minute

so $\frac{1}{36}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{20}$

$\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{20}-\frac{1}{36}$

x=45 minutes
