7b / 12 = 4.2
multiply both sides by 12

7b = 50.4
divide both sides by 7 to isolate b

b = 7.2

I really need to know how long it takes the large pipe on its own
Andreyy89

s = hours it takes the small pipe on its own.


L = hours it takes the large pipe on its own.


we know the small pipe can do it in 11 hours total, so s = 11, so, how much of the whole job has the small done in 1 hour only?


well, if it takes 11 hours to do the whole thing, in 1 hour it has done only 1/11 of the whole job.


we know both pipes working together can do it in 6 hours flat. So in 1 hour only, both of them have done only 1/6 of the whole thing.


in that 1 hour, how much has the large one done? well, it has only done 1/L of the job.


\bf \stackrel{\textit{how much has it been done by both in 1 hour}}{\stackrel{\stackrel{small}{rate}}{\cfrac{1}{s}}+\stackrel{\stackrel{large}{rate}}{\cfrac{1}{L}}~~=~~\stackrel{job}{\cfrac{1}{6}}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{1}{11}+\cfrac{1}{L}=\cfrac{1}{6}\implies \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{66L}}{6L+66=11L}\implies 66=5L \\\\\\ \cfrac{66}{5}=L\implies 13\frac{1}{5}=L\impliedby \textit{13 hours and 12 minutes}


and you can round that up as needed.

Suppose you want to build a small walkway around your garden so that there is someplace to walk around and work on your vegetabl
wolverine [178]

Answer:

Approximately 3.5 feet - Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine that you have this walkway around the garden, with dimensions 30 by 20 feet. This walkway has a difference of x feet between it's length, and say the dimension 30 feet. In fact it has a difference of x along both dimensions - on either ends. Therefore, the increases length and width should be 30 + 2x, and 20 + 2x, which is with respect to an increases area of 1,000 square feet.

( 30 + 2x ) * ( 20 + 2x ) = 1000 - Expand "( 30 + 2x ) * ( 20 + 2x )"

600 + 100x + 4x^2 = 1000 - Subtract 1000 on either side, making on side = 0

4x^2 + 100x - 400 = 0 - Take the "quadratic equation formula"  

( Quadratic Equation is as follows ) - x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a},

x=\frac{-100+\sqrt{100^2-4\cdot \:4\left(-400\right)}}{2\cdot \:4}:\quad \frac{5\left(\sqrt{41}-5\right)}{2},

x=\frac{-100-\sqrt{100^2-4\cdot \:4\left(-400\right)}}{2\cdot \:4}:\quad -\frac{5\left(5+\sqrt{41}\right)}{2}

There can't be a negative width of the walkway, hence our solution should be ( in exact terms ) \frac{5\left(\sqrt{41}-5\right)}{2}. The approximated value however is 3.5081...or approximately 3.5 feet.

Mrs.Browns rectangular kitchen is 10 ft wide and.16 ft long, if she creates a scale drawing.With a length of 4 inches, what woul
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

2.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1 feet = 12 inches

The length is 16 ft x 12 = 192 inches

The length was scales by an unknown measure which i would represent with x . The equation is as follows

192 inches x a = 4 feet

a = 48

The kitchen was scaled by 48

10 x 12 = 120 inches

120/48 = 2.5 inches

Find x please so difficult
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Attached is a screenshot.

y = 180 - 50 - 70 = 60.

x + y = 180, so x = 120

Remember to try to use parallel lines when you can

The second uses the same method, just the opposite side.
