<span>Rate of pump A: 1/8 of a pool per hour
Rate of pump B: 1/9 of a pool per hour
Combined rate: 1/8+1/9 = 17/72 +1/9 = 25/72
So if they work together, the two pumps have a combined rate of 25/72 of a pool per hour (i.e in one hour, the two pumps will empty 25/72 of the pool)
</span><span>But we want to empty ONE pool (not 25/72 of one). So we need to multiply 25/72 by some number x to get 1.
</span>
<span>Now solve for x
x=2.88
</span><span>It will take the two pumps 2.88 hours to empty the pool.
2 hours 52 minutes 50 seconds</span>
Answer:
The equation that can be used to find the width is 2(13 + w) = 42
The width of the rectangle is 8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(l + w), where l is its length and w is its width
∵ One rectangle has a length of 13 inches
∴ l = 13 inches
∵ Its perimeter is 42 inches
∴ P = 42 inches
- Substitute the values of l and P in the formula of the perimeter
∵ 42 = 2(13 + w)
The equation that can be used to find the width is 2(13 + w) = 42
To find W divide both sides by 2
∴ 21 = 13 + w
- Subtract 13 from both sides
∴ 8 = w
The width of the rectangle is 8 inches
Answer:
It is C 5 x 3 + 1 = n
Step-by-step explanation:
You would multiply 5 x 3 because you have 3 balls that can fit in a can and there are 5 cans
Then you would add 1 because you had one extra ball that didn't fit in a can
Answer:B.) No-40 cents too high
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the answer you need to fin the discount. So basically I did 16x15 and got 240. Than I divided that by 100. I got 2.40.Than I subtract 2.40 from 16 and got $13.60. Therefore it would be B
The first option is correct
