Answer:

37.76 minutes (Approximately)  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: It takes a hose 5 minutes to fill a rectangular aquarium 11 inches long, 13 inches wide, and 14 inches tall.

To find: Time taken to fill an aquarium measuring 21 inches by 24 inches by 30 inches.

Solution: We know that volume of a rectangular prism is l\times b\times h

So, volume of rectangular aquarium measuring 11 inches long, 13 inches wide, and 14 inches tall is 11\times13\times14=2002 cubic inches.

It is given that the hose take 5 minutes to fill the aquarium.

So, we can say that 2002 cubic inches is filled in 5 minutes.

Therefore, in 1 minute \frac{2002}{5}=400.40 cubic inches is filled.

Now, volume of the aquarium measuring 21 inches by 24 inches by 30 inches is 21\times24\times30=15120 cubic inches.

So, time taken to fill 15120 cubic inches

=\frac{15120}{400.40}

=37.76 minutes (Approximately)

Volume of 1st aquarium = 11 * 13 * 14 = 2002
volume of 2nd aquarium = 21 * 14 * 30 = 8820

if 5 minutes = 2002
1 minute = 2002\5 = 400.4

minutes to fill the 2nd aquarium is 8820/400.4 = 22.028(approximately)

Student made five tetrahedrons, a three dimensional figure with four triangular faces and labeled the faces 1-4. use an equation
JulsSmile [24]
The probability is 1/1024.

Each tetrahedron has a 1/4 chance of landing on 3, since there are 4 sides and only one of them is marked 3.

Each tetrahedron roll is independent, since no roll is affected by another.

This means we multiply the probabilities:
1/4(1/4)(1/4)(1/4)(1/4) = 1/1024

Solve 5x^2 - 7x + 2 = 0 by completing the square.
Reika [66]

Answer:  The correct option is (c) \dfrac{49}{100}.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to solve the following quadratic equation by the method of completing the square:

5x^2-7x+2=0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

Also, we are to find the constant added on both sides to form the perfect square trinomial.

We have from equation (i) that

5x^2-7x+2=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-\dfrac{7}{5}x+\dfrac{2}{5}=0\\\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-2\times x\times \dfrac{7}{10}+\left(\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2+\dfrac{2}{5}=\left(\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2\\\\\\\Rightarrow \left(x-\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2=\dfrac{49}{100}-\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\\\\Rightarrow  \left(x-\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2=\dfrac{49-40}{100}\\\\\\\Rightarrow  \left(x-\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2=\dfrac{9}{100}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x-\dfrac{7}{10}=\pm\dfrac{3}{10}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=\pm\dfrac{3}{10}+\dfrac{7}{10}.

So,

x=\dfrac{3}{10}+\dfrac{7}{10},~~~~~~~~x=-\dfrac{3}{10}+\dfrac{7}{10}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{10}{10},~~~~~~~~\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{-3+7}{10}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=1,~-\dfrac{2}{5}.

Thus, the required solution is x=1,~-\dfrac{2}{5}. and the value of the constant added is \dfrac{49}{100}.

Option (c) is correct.
