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.

f' signifies the slope of the function f. so f" is the slope of the slope and so on.</span>

1(3√2)2=2n this might be hard to do but I need help asap!! ty
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

3√2

Step-by-step explanation:

1(3√2)2=2n

Multiply 2 and 1 to give 2

2(3√2)=2n

Multiply 2 and 3√2=6√2

6√2=2n

Divide both sides by 2

n=6√2/2=3√2
