18 is the least common denominator of all the fractions, so you can eliminate fractions by multiplying the equation by 18.

(4.5*18)x +((7/9)*18)x + (2 1/3)*18 + ((1/6)*18)x = (5 1/18)*18
81x +14x +42 +3x = 91 . . . . . simplify

Collect terms.
98x + 42 = 91
98x = 49 . . . . . . . . . subtract 42
x = 49/98 = 1/2

The solution is x = 1/2.

You can also do the arithmetic with mixed numbers and fractions. The usual methods apply.
  (4.5 + 7/9 + 1/6)x + 2 1/3 = 5 1/18
  (49/9)x + 7/3 = 91/18
  (49/9)x = 49/18 . . . . . . . subtract 7/3
  x = (9/49)(49/18) = 9/18 = 1/2 . . . . . multiply by 9/49
This can be a little more tedious than the method above, but it works and it will give you the right answer. A calculator that works with fractions can make this solution as easy as the other one.

Answer:

U =35.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right angle, we can use trig functions

tan theta = opp/ adj

tan U = 5/7

Take the inverse of each side

tan ^-1 tan U = tan ^-1 (5/7)

U = 35.53767779

Round to the nearest tenth

U =35.5

A hose fills a hot tub at a rate of 2.65 gallons per minute. How many hours will it take to fill a 283 ​-gallon hot​ tub?
dsp73

Answer:

you need to substitute values on the next form of resolving this problem as  follows...

A hose fills up a hot tub at a rate of 3.2 gallons per minute. How many hours will it take to fill a 300 gallon hot tub?

please explain the method of unit conversions as thoroughly as possible.

 

Solution:

 

The rate of fill up is, Rate = 3.2 Gallons / minute = 3.2 g/min

The hut tub volume is 300 Gallons

 

You can set up this problem as follows:

 

Every 3.2 gallons require 1 minute, How many minutes 300 gallons require?

 

3.2  g    1min

300 g     ? min    = (300 gallons x 1min/ 3.2 gallons)=(300/32)min

 

= 93.75 min

 

or simply the number minutes is the time required (T) the rate is (R) and the volume is (V)

such that T=V/R= (300g/3.2 g/min)= 93.75 min
