Lets say, for ease, that the vat can hold a total of 70 gallons (or whatever you would like to use.) Use whatever number you want, I just picked this because it gives us a lot of clean numbers. 

Now, if the inlet can fill it in 7 hours, that means that it is adding 10 gallons per hour. (70 gal/7 hours = 10 gal/hr)

For the outlet, use the same process, and you find that it drains the vat at 7 gallons per hour. 

So, if you subtract the outlet from the inlet, you get 10 - 7 = 3 gallons per hour added. 

Now just divide the size of the vat by that number, and you find your answer. 

70 gallons / 3 gallons per hour = 23 1/3 hours.

Explain why the expression 9x^3+1/2x^2+3x^-1 is not a polynomial
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The given expression can't be expressed in polynomial form. Hence, it is not a polynomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(x,n) is a polynomial of nth degree if it is of the form,

P(x,n) = a_{0} + a_{1}x + a_{2}x^{2} + a_{3}x^{3} + ......... +a_{n}x^{n}

where n is a finite positive integer and n ∈ N

and 'a_{i}'s are fixed but otherwise arbitrary constants ∀  i = 0(1)n .

Now, the given expression is,

9x^{3} + \frac {1}{2x^{2}} + 3x^{-1}

which  doesn't fit in the above form. Hence, it is not a polynomial.
