You pull out the plug from the bathtub. After 40 seconds, there are 13 gallons of water left in the tub. One minute after you pu

ll the plug, there are 10 gallons left.
Assume that the number of gallons varies linearly with the time since the plug was pulled.


Write the particular equation expressing the number of gallons (g) left in the tub in terms of the number of seconds (s) since you pulled the plug.​

Answer:

  • g = -3/20s + 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume this is a function

<u>The points are</u>

  • (40, 13) and (60, 10)

<u>Since it is linear relation, we'll get the slope intercept form</u>

  • g = ms + b, where g- number of gallons, s- time in seconds, b- y intercept

<u>Using the points, let's calculate the formula</u>

  • m = (10 - 13)/(60 - 40) = -3/20
  • 10 = -3/20*60 + b
  • 10 = - 9 + b
  • b = 19

<u>So the formula is:</u>

  • g = -3/20s + 19

20+2x=3x subtract 2x from both sides
20=x after 20 miles the total cost for both companies will be the same

PROOF
20+2(20)=3(20)
20+40=60
60=60

Volume of composite figures
ollegr [7]

Given:

The diameter of cylinder is 6 in and the height of the cylinder is 8 in.

The dimensions of the cuboid are 15 in by 9 in by 9 in.

To find:

The volume of the composite figure.

Solution:

Volume of a cuboid is:

V_1=length\times breadth\times height

V_1=15\times 9\times 9

V_1=1215

So, the volume of the cuboid is 1215 cubic inches.

The diameter of cylinder is 6 in. So, the radius of the cylinder is:

\dfrac{6}{2}=3\text{ inches}

Volume of a cylinder is:

V_2=\pi r^2h

Where, r is the radius and h is the height.

Substituting r=3,h=8,\pi =3.14, we get

V_2=(3.14)(3)^2(8)

V_2=(3.14)(9)(8)

V_2=226.08

The volume of the cylinder is 226.08 cubic inches.

Now, the volume of the composite figure is:

V=V_1+V_2

V=1215+226.08

V=1441.08

Therefore, the volume of the composite figure is 1441.08 cubic inches.

Value of x, of (18, 24, 22, 28,x) mean =25
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

x = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = Sum of all the data's/ Number of data's

\frac{18+24+22+28+x}{5}=25\\\\\frac{92+x}{5}=25\\\\92+x=5*25\\\\92+x=125\\\\x=125-92\\\\x=33

N76 [4]
Umm... I really dont get maths in my brain. Dont mind me though :P . 
but i can sure tell u a little i know .
4x-1+2x-5+30=180 (sum of interior angles of triangle)
or, 6x+24=180
or, 6x=156
therefore, X=26 degrees
thankyou :D
