-- The filler pipe can fill 1/6 of the pool every hour.
-- The drainer pipe can drain 1/10 of the pool every hour.
-- When they're filling and draining at the same time, the filler pipe
will win eventually, because it finishes more of the pool in an hour
than what the drain pipe can finish in an hour.
-- When they're filling and draining at the same time, then every hour,
1/6 of the pool fills and 1/10 of it empties. The difference is (1/6) - (1/10).
To do that subtraction, we need a common denominator.
The smallest denominator that works is 30.
1/6 = 5/30
1/10 = 3/30 .
So in every hour, 5/30 of the pool fills, and 3/30 of the pool empties.
The result of both at the same time is that 2/30 = 1/15 fills each hour.
If nobody notices what's going on and closes the drain pipe, it will take
<em><u>15 hours</u></em> to fill the pool.
If the drain pipe had <em><u>not</u></em> been open, the filler pipe alone could have filled
the pool <em><u>2-1/2 times</u></em> in that same 15 hours. With both pipes open,
1-1/2 pool's worth of water went straight down the drain during that time,
and it was wasted.
I would say that the school should take the cost of 1-1/2 poolsworth out
of Ms. Charles' pay at the rate of $5 a week. I would, but that would
guarantee her more job security than she deserves after pulling a stunt
like that.
I hope this did not take place in California.
Answer:
x=2, y=1
x=-2, y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 2y = 0
x = 2y
x² - y² = 3
(2y)² - y² = 3
3y² = 3
y² = 1
y = 1 or y = - 1
x = 2 or x = -2
Answer:
3 7/50
Step-by-step explanation:
so you need them to become common denominators
a common multiple they both have would be is 77
6/7 becomes 66/77 and 3/11 becomes 21/77
now we divide
keep the 66/77 as is and flip 21/77 (keep, change, flip)
so now our equation looks like this: 66/77 x 77/21
and your answer is 3.14
but as a fraction it is 157/50 and to simplified it would be 3 7/50 (mixed fraction)
What you need to know for this case is that the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180 °
We then have the following equation that is given by:
(2x) + (3x) + (4x) = 180
Clearing x we have:
9x = 180
x = 180/9
x = 20
Therefore we have:
m∠A = (40) °
m∠B = (60) °
m∠C = (80) °
Answer:
B) m∠B = 60 °
Answer:
(h, k )
Step-by-step explanation:
given the standard form of an absolute function
f(x) = a| x - h | + k , then
vertex = (h, k )
