If the drain is left open, the pool will fill at 3/4 the normal rate. 1/4 of 18 equals 4.5 hours. The pool would take about 4.5 hours longer to fill.
The answer is 22.5 hours

Triangle A B C is shown. Angle A C B is a right angle. The length of the hypotenuse is 20.
kherson [118]

Answer:

The length of BC is needed because it is the side opposite ∠A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the right angles triangle as shown in the attachment, we can get sin(A) without using Pythagoras theorem. Instead we will use SOH CAH TOA trigonometry identity.

According to SOH:

Sin(A) = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Sin(A) = |BC|/|AB|

Opposite side of the triangle is the  side facing ∠A.

Based on the formula, we will need to get the opposite side of the triangle which is length BC for us to be able to determine sinA since the hypotenuse is given.

A leaking faucet drips into a bucket. The faucet drips at a constant rate. The level of water in the bucket rises
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The per hour rate is 0.5 inches per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the rate at which the level of the water increased

Mathematically, we can get this by dividing the amount of increment by the time it took

That would be 3 inches divided by 6 hours

= 3/6 = 0.5 inches per hour

When the two values are different

Step-by-step explanation:

Like in an inequality equation.

For example:

4+5x\geq 30

The answer would be anything greate than or equal to 30, but you would need to find x. The number line would be very useful

Hope this helps

Solve the following equations for x -11=3-7(x-1)
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

x = 21/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

x - 11 = 3 - 7(x - 1)

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Distribute -7:</u> x - 11 = 3 - 7x + 7

<u>Combine like terms:</u> x - 11 = 10 - 7x

<u>Add 7x on both sides:</u> 8x - 11 = 10

<u>Add 11 on both sides:</u> 8x = 21

<u>Divide both sides by 8:</u> x = 21/8
