The scale factor of two similar swimming pools is 4:7. The amount of a chlorine mixture to be added is proportional to the volum

e of water in the pool. If 3 cups of the chlorine mixture are needed for the smaller pool, how much of the chlorine mixture is needed for the larger pool?

It would require 5.25 cups.

Since the amount of chlorine mixture necessary is proportional to the volume of water in the pool, we will use the scale factor of the volume of the two pools, 4/7, to set up a proportion.

4/7 = 3/x

Cross multiply:
4*x = 3*7
4x = 21

Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 21/4
x = 5.25

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

2.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest= P×R×T÷100

T= 100I÷P×R

T= 100×400÷8000×2

T= 40000÷16000

T= 5÷2

T= 2.5 years

If A is the area of a circle with radius r and the circle expands as time passes, find dA/dt in terms of dx/dt
valina [46]
The area of a circle in terms of the circle's radius r is

A=\pi r^2

Differentiating both sides with respect to t, you get

\dfrac{\mathrm dA}{\mathrm dt}=2\pi r\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}

Half a number increased by the quotient of p and t
NeX [460]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be 'x'

Half a number = \frac{1}{2}x

Half a number increased by the quotient of p and t

\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{p}{t}

Drina wrote the system of linear equations below.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Option c, A square matrix

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of linear equations are

3x-2y=-2\hfill(1)

7x+3y=26\hfill(2)

-x-11y=46\hfill(3)

Now to find the type of matrix can be formed by using this system

of equations

From the given system of linear equations we can form a matrix

Let A be a matrix

A matrix can be written by

A=co-efficient of x of 1st linear equation    co-efficient of y of 1st linear equation   constant of 1st terms linear equation

co-efficient of x of 2st linear equation   co-efficient of y of 2st linear equation  constant of 2st terms linear equation

co-efficient of x of 3st linear equation   co-efficient of y of 3st linear equation    constant of 3st terms linear equation           3\times 3

which is a 3\times 3 matrix.

Therefore A can be written as

A= \left[\begin{array}{lll}3&-2&-2\\7&3&26\\-1&-11&46\end{array}\right] 3\times 3

Matrix "A" is a 3\times3 matrix so that it has 3 rows and 3 columns

A square matrix has equal rows and equal columns

Since matrix "A" has equal rows and columns Therefore it must be a square matrix

Therefore the given system of linear equation forms a square matrix
