Please limit your posts to one or two problems each. Your demands ("show work," "answer quickly," "give a full response") should apply to YOU, not to people whom you hope will do your work for you.

<span>2. A pool company is trying out several new drains. Drain A empties a pool at a rate of 2 gal/min. Drain B empties a pool at a rate of 5 gal/min. One pool has 108 gal of water in it. Write an equation for each drain that shows the amount of time it takes to empty the pool. Then solve each equation showing your work.</span>

Drain A: rate is 2 gal/min. We do not know which pool has 108 gallons of water in it. If it's Pool A, then the time required to empty Pool A is

108 gallons
------------------- = 54 minutes
2 gallons/min

If it's Pool B, then we can represent the amount of water in Pool B by b. Then the time required to empty Pool B is

b (gallons)
------------------ = (b/5) minutes
5 gallons/min

On the coordinate grid of a map. Jeff's house is located at (9,5). Hannah's house is at (-5,-5). Kenya's house is located at the

Andru [333]

The midpoint formula is $\frac{ x_{1} + x_{2} }{2}, \frac{ y_{1}+ y_{2} }{2}$
So just plug in the corresponding coordinates in the correct place to get the midpoint.
x_1=-5 ; x_2=9 ; y_1=-5 ; y_2=5
((-5 + 9)/2 , (-5 + 5)/2)
(4/2 , 0/2)
(2,0) is where Kenya's house is(which is the midpoint).

The distance formula is a bit more complicated than that. The distance formula is D= $\sqrt{({y_{2}- y_{1} }^{2}) + ({ x_{2}- x_{1}}^{2} ) }$
In this case now, your looking for the distance from Hannah's house to Kenya's house.
D= $\sqrt{(-5-2)^{2} + (-5-0)^{2} }$
= $\sqrt{49+25}$
= $\sqrt{74}$ ≈8.6023
