Answer:

It takes 1 minute 12 seconds to fill the bucket if both taps are turned on.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. One tap fills the bucket in 2 minutes, thus fills 1/2 of the bucket in one minute.
  2. Other tap fills the bucket in 3 minutes, thus fills 1/3 of the bucket in one minute.
  3. Both together fill 1/2+1/3=5/6 of the bucket in one minute.
  4. If they can fill 5/6 of the bucket in 1 minute, they fill 1/6 of the bucket in 1/5 minute.
  5. They can fill the bucket (6/6) in 1+1/5 minute
  6. This is 1 minute 12 seconds

What is the vertex of f(x) = |x + 8| – 3?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

(-8,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is similar to the vertex form of a quadratic equation, so you can think of this equation like f(x) = (x-h)+k. Using this equation, you can determine the vertex (h,k) of |x+8|-3, which is (-8,-3).

I just don't know where to start. I'm doing Algebra 2 stuff with sohcahtoa.
mezya [45]

Hello!

As you can see, 22 is the opposite angle. We are looking for the adjacent angle. Let's just call it x. Using SOH CAH TOA, we see that the tangent is the opposite divided by the adjacent side. Let's use that.

tan54≈1.38

This gives us the equation below.

1.38=22/x

Let's solve this equation for x.

1.38x=22

x=22/1.38

x=15.94

Therefore, the length of the shadow is about 15.94 meters.

I hope this helps!

Urgent!!!!
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

One pair of socks is $370.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sean bought <em>three pairs</em> of the same socks and a shoe polish for $1450. If the

polish cost $340, how much is the cost of <em>one pair</em> of socks.

6x - 340 = 1450

6x = 1450 -340

6x = 1110

2x = 1110 / 3

2x = 370
