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
Q1)
the sequence should start with 10, after that each term is calculated by subtracting 3 from the previous term.
1st term - 10
2nd term - 10 - 3 = 7
3rd term - 7 - 3 = 4
4th term - 4 - 3 = 1
5th term - 1 - 3 = -2
6th term - -2 - 3 = -5
7th term - -5 - 3 = -8
8th - -8 - 3 = -11
9th - -11 - 3 = -14
10th -14 - 3 = -17
the sequence is - 10,7,4,1,-2,-5,-8,-11,-14,-17
Q2)
<span>the sequence whose nth term is the sum of the first n positive integers
In this we get the term by adding all the integers of the terms before that term
1st term - n = 1 no terms before this , therefore 0 + n(1) = 1
2nd term -n =2 sum of integers before - 1 + n( 2) = 3
3rd - 3+3 = 6
4th - 6+4 = 10
5th - 10 + 5 = 15
6th - 15 + 6 = 21
7th - 21 + 7 = 28
8th - 28 + 8 = 36
9th - 36 + 9 = 45
10th - 45 + 10 = 55
this is a triangular number pattern
this number pattern can be found out using ; n = (n x (n+1))/2
sequence is - 1,3,6,10,15,21,28,36,45,55
Q3)
</span>the sequence whose nth term is 3n − 2n
general term for this sequence is 3n − 2n
to find 1st term , n = 1
substituting n = 1 in the general term
1st term - 3x1 - 2x1 = 3-2 = 1
2nd - 3x2- 2x2 = 6 - 4 = 2
3rd - 3x3 - 2x3 = 9-6 = 3
4th - 3x4 - 2x4 = 12 - 8 = 4
5th - 3x5 - 2x5 = 15 - 10 = 5
6th - 3x6 - 2x6 = 18 - 12 = 6
7th - 3x7 - 2x7 = 21 - 14 = 7
8th - 3 x8 - 2x8 = 24 - 16 = 8
9th - 3x9 - 2x9 = 27 - 18 = 9
10th - 3x10 - 2x10 = 30-20 = 10
sequence is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Q4)
<span>the sequence whose nth term is √ n
when n=1 1st term is </span>√1 = 1
1st term - √1 = 1
2nd term - √2 = 1.41
3rd - √3 = 1.73
4th - √4 = 2
5th - √5 = 2.23
6th- √6 = 2.44
7th - √7 = 2.65
8th- √8 = 2.82
9th - √9 = 3
10th - √10 = 3.16
The sequence is 1, 1.41, 1.73, 2, 2.23, 2.44, 2.65, 2.82, 3, 3.16
Q5)T<span>he sequence whose first two terms are 1 and 5 and each succeeding term is the sum of the two previous terms
</span>1st term - 1
2nd term - 5
3rd term - add 1st and 2nd term (1+5) = 6
4th term - add 2nd and 3rd terms (5+6) = 11
5th - add 3rd and 4th (6+11) = 17
6th - (11+17) = 28
7th - (17 + 28) = 45
8th - 45 + 28 = 73
9th - 73 + 45 = 118
10th - 73+ 118 = 191
sequence is - 1,5,6,11,17,28,45,73,118,191
Question 1.) 267.935:39=
Answer 1.) 6.870 approximately
Question 2.) 689.354:78
Answer 2.) 8.838 approximately
Question 3.) 96.873:56
Answer 3.) 1.730 approximately
Explanation : Since the numerators are expressed in thousandths, the answers must be expressed in thousandths too.
Hope this helps!
