Answer:

  Tank B

Step-by-step explanation:

In gallons per minute, the leak rates are ...

  Tank A: (1/16 gal)/(1/12 min) = 12/16 gal/min = 3/4 gal/min

  Tank B: (3/80 gal)/(1/30 min) = 90/80 gal/min = 9/8 gal/min

Tank A leaks less than 1 gallon per minute, while Tank B leaks more than 1 gallon per minute.

Tank B is leaking faster.

The position s(t) of a robot moving along a track at time t is given by s(t)=9t^2−90t+4.
Xelga [282]

The total distance traveled by the robot from t=0 to t=9 is 1422 units

Integration is a way in which smaller components are brought together in pieces to form a whole. Integration can be used in finding areas, volumes and so on.

Given that the position s(t) at any time t is given by the function:

s(t)=9t²−90t+4

The total distance traveled by the robot from t=0 to t=9 can be gotten by integrating the position function within the limits 0< t < 9

Therefore:

Total\ distance = \int\limits^9_0 {s(t) \, dt \\\\Total\ distance = \int\limits^9_0 {(9t^2-90t+4) \, dt\\\\Total\ distance = [3t^3-45t+4t]_0^9\\\\Total\ distance=-1422\ units

The total distance is 1422 units

A regular hexagon has sides of 3 feet. What is the area of the hexagon?
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

13.5\sqrt{3}\:\text{ft}^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The side of a regular hexagon is 3 feet.

To find: Area of the hexagon

Solution:

It is given that the side of a regular hexagon is 3 feet.

We know that the area of a regular hexagon whose side is a units is \frac{3\sqrt{3} }{2} a^{2}

Here, the side is 3 feet

So, area of the regular hexagon

=\frac{3\sqrt{3} }{2} \times3^{2}

=\frac{3\sqrt{3} }{2} \times9

=\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2}

=13.5\sqrt{3}\:\text{ft}^{2}

Hence, area of the regular hexagon is 13.5\sqrt{3}\:\text{ft}^{2}

The solution set to 6 + 2n &gt; 12 is n &gt; 3. Which are the correct representations of this solution? Select two options.
Alina [70]

The correct representation of 6 + 2n > 12 (n > 3) is  (3, ∞) and a number line with an open circle at +3 and being shaded from +3 to +5.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Given the equation::

6 + 2n > 12

Subtracting 6 from both sides:

6 + 2n - 6 > 12 - 6

2n > 6

Dividing by 2:

n > 3

The correct representation of 6 + 2n > 12 (n > 3) is  (3, ∞) and a number line with an open circle at +3 and being shaded from +3 to +5.
