A leaky valve on the water meter overcharges the residents for one gallon of water every 1 1 over 3 months. The overcharged amou

nt w varies directly with time t. Find the equation that models this direct variation. How many months it will take for the residents to be overcharged for 5 gallons of water? A) w = 3 over 4t; 62 over 3 months.B) w = 4 over 3t; 62 over 3 months. C) w = 3 over 4t; 33 over 4 months. D) w = 4 over 3t; 33 over 4 months

The number of months overcharged for 1 gallon of leaky water = 1 1/3
                                                                                                     = 4/3
Let us assume the quantity of water overcharged = w
Let us assume the time in months = t
Then, the equation modelling this direct variation is
w = (3/4)t
When w = 5, then
5 = (3/4) * t
20 = 3t
t = 20/3
  = 6 2/3
From the above deduction, we can conclude that the first option or option "A" is the correct option. I hope the answer helps you.

The correct answer to this question is letter "<span> A) w = 3 over 4t."
</span>Given that the  number of months overcharged for 1 gallon of leaky water is equal to 1 1/3 and which is equal to 4/3.

Let w the quantity of water overcharged
Let t  the time in months

Let's make the equation. We have to use direct variation.
w = (3/4)t

w = 5, we will be able to get t
5 = (3/4) * t
20 = 3t
t = 20/3 = 6 2/3

elena55 [62]

Answer:

Hello

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is limited with 2 lines parallel: -1 ≤ x ≤ 1

and the disk ? (inside of a circle) of center (0,0) and radius 2

dom\ f(x,y)=\{(x,y) \in \mathbb{R} ^2 | \ -1\leq x \leq -1\ and \ ( -\sqrt{4-x^2}  \leq \ y  \leq \sqrt{4-x^2}\  ) \ \}\\

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

  The pool is being filled

Step-by-step explanation:

The function definition tells you ...

  f(5) = the volume of water in the pool 5 minutes after they start

  f(10) = the volume of water in the pool 10 minutes after they start

So, the inequality ...

  f(5) < f(10)

means the volume of water in the pool 10 minutes after they start is greater than it is 5 minutes after they start. In short, <em>they are filling the pool</em>.
