I think it is C. or D. but if I'm wrong I'm really sorry. the closest one that I figured is D. If that helps.
Answer:
Tap A 3hrs
Tap B 6hrs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the volume of the swimming pool be Xm^3.
Now, to get the appropriate volume, we know we need to multiply the rate by the time. Let the rate of the taps be R1 and R2 respectively, while the time taken to fill the swimming pool be Ta and Tb respectively.
x/Ta= Ra
x/Tb= Rb
X/(Ra + Rb)= 2
Ta = Tb - 3
From equation 2:
X = 2( Ra + Rb)
Substituting the values of Ra and Rb Using the first set of equations
X = 2( x/Ta + x/Tb)
But Ta = Tb - 3
1/2 = 1/(Tb - 3)+ 1/Tb
0.5 = (Tb + Tb-3)/Tb(Tb - 3)
At this juncture let’s say Tb = y
0.5 = (2y - 3)/y(y - 3)
y(y-3 ) = 4y - 6
y^2 -3y - 4y + 6 = 0
y^2 -7y + 6= 0
Solving the quadratic equation, we get y =
y = Tb = 6hrs or 1hr
We remove one hour as we know that Tap A takes 3hrs left than tap B and there is nothing like negative hours
Now, we get Ta by Tb -3 = 6 - 3 = 3hrs
(22 + 15.50 + 2.75) 15
(22 * 15) + (15.50 * 15) + (2.75 * 15)
Answer: 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of marbles in jar = 32
Let blue marbles be represented by b.
Since there are three times as many green marbles as blue. This means that green will be = 3 × b = 3b
We then add them together. This will be:
3b + b = 32
4b = 32
b = 32/4
b = 8
There are 8 blue marbles
Since green is 3× blue. Therefore,
Green = 8 × 3 = 24 marbles
