Answer: after 40 seconds, the two tanks will have the same amount of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of seconds after which both tanks will have the same amount of water.

A fish tank has 150 gallons of water and is being drained at a rate of 1/2 gallons each second. It means that the number of gallons of water that would be in the tank after t seconds is

150 - 0.5t

A second fish tank has 120 gallons and it is being filled at a rate of 1/4 gallons each second. It means that the number of gallons of water that would be in the tank after t seconds is

120 + 0.25t

For the volume of both tanks to he the same, then

120 + 0.25t = 150 - 0.5t

0.25t + 0.5t = 150 - 120

0.75t = 30

t = 40 seconds

Elza [17]

Answer:

8.2.69 ≤ x ≤ 17.31

11. x-7.31 ≤ 10

12. x≤17.31

Let the amount in the other Piggybank be x.

If positive;

x-7.31 ≤ 10

x ≤ 10+7.31

x ≤ 17.31

If negative

-(x-7.31) ≤ 10

-x+7.31 ≤ 10

-x ≤ 10-7.31

-x ≤ 2.69

Multiply both sides by -1

x ≥ -2.69

The compound inequality representing the amount of money in the other bank is -2.69≤x≤17.31

Can y = sin(t2) be a solution on an interval containing t = 0 of an equation y + p(t) y + q(t) y = 0 with continuous coefficient
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = sin(t^2)

y' = 2tcos(t^2)

y'' = 2cos(t^2) - 4t^2sin(t^2)

so the equation become

2cos(t^2) - 4t^2sin(t^2) + p(t)(2tcos(t^2)) + q(t)sin(t^2) = 0

when t=0, above eqution is 2. That is, there does not exist the solution. so y can not be a solution on I containing t=0.

X| 25 | 35 | 45 | 55 |
Yanka [14]
A graphing calculator can do a linear regression on these points very easily. The y-intercept is 107.

_____
If you want to do this by hand, you can use the 2-point form of the equation for a line, then evaluate for x=0.
.. y = (100 -102)/(35 -25)*(x -25) +102
.. y =-2/10*(0 -25) +102
.. y = 107
