Alright, lets gets started.

If water enters through a pipe alone, swimming pool can be filled in 12 hr.

Or say, in 12 hrs, swimming pool can be filled with help of pipe.

It means in 1 hr, the part of swimming pool filled = \frac{1}{12} (For pipe only)

Similarly, with hose only, , in 1 hr, the part of swimming pool filled = \frac{1}{30}

So, water is coming from both, pipe and hose , then in 1 hr, the part of pool filled will be = \frac{1}{12}  + \frac{1}{30}

Suppose in x hrs, with both supplies, pipe and hose, pool is filled.

Means

\frac{1}{12}  + \frac{1}{30}  = \frac{1}{x}

making common denominator

\frac{30}{360}   + \frac{12}{360}  = \frac{1}{x}

\frac{30 + 12}{360} = \frac{1}{x}

\frac{42}{360}  = \frac{1}{x}

Flipping

\frac{360}{42}  = x

x = \frac{60}{7}

Means 8.57 hrs : Answer

Hope it will help :)

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is given by

V = 4/3 pi r^3

2304 pi = 4/3 pi r^3

Divide each side by pi

2304 = 4/3 r^3

Multiply each side 3/4

2304 * 3/4 = 4/3 r^3 * 3/4

1728 = r^3

Take the cube root of each side

1728 ^ 1/3 = r^3 ^ 1/3

12 = r

We want the diameter

d = 2*r

d = 2*12

d = 24
