The adult tickets cost $5 and the child tickets cost $2
Monday
5 x ($2) + 3 x ($5) = $25
Tuesday
4 x ($2) + 4 x ($5) = $28
Basically you are finding the volume of a rectangular prism of 3 by 2 meters cross section and 30 meters length. Volume = (3 m)(2 m)(30 m) = 180 cubic meters.
If 60% of the water has evaporated, 40% is left. Find 40% of 180 cubic meters to answer the 2nd part of this question.
Hey there!☺
We will need to factor . In order to that, we will have to start grouping.
Hope this helps!
<span>30 hours
For this problem, going to assume that the actual flow rate for both pipes is constant for the entire duration of either filling or emptying the pool. The pipe to fill the pool I'll consider to have a value of 1/12 while the drain that empties the pool will have a value of 1/20. With those values, the equation that expresses how many hour it will take to fill the pool while the drain is open becomes:
X(1/12 - 1/20) = 1
Now solve for X
X(5/60 - 3/60) = 1
X(2/60) = 1
X(1/30) = 1
X/30 = 1
X = 30
To check the answer, let's see how much water would have been added over 30 hours.
30/12 = 2.5
So 2 and a half pools worth of water would have been added. Now how much would be removed?
30/20 = 1.5
And 1 and half pools worth would have been removed. So the amount left in the pool is
2.5 - 1.5 = 1
And that's exactly the amount needed.</span>
