w many hours will the empty cistern take to fill if all the pipes are running?
If x is the time to fill it, which of the following equations could be used to solve for t?

4x + 5x - 6x = 1
15x + 12x - 10x = 60
4x + 5x = 20

X/4 +x/5 -x/6=1
make the denominator the same: 
15x/60 +12x/60 -10x/60=1
17x=60
x=60/17=3.53 hours

the second choice is the correct answer.

Can someone please help me with 44. And 45?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Problem 44

The term "bisect" means "cut in half".

Since BD bisects angle ABC, this means the smaller angles ABD and DBC are congruent.

angle ABD = angle DBC

x+15 = 4x-45

15+45 = 4x-x

60 = 3x

3x = 60

x = 60/3

x = 20

<h3>Answer:  x = 20</h3>

========================================================

Problem 45

We use the same idea as the previous problem

angle ABD = angle DBC

2x+35 = 5x-22

35+22 = 5x-2x

57 = 3x

3x = 57

x = 57/3

x = 19

<h3>Answer: x = 19</h3>
