[NOTE: NO OPTION MATCHES THE ANSWER because values provided are wrong but I have solved the qyestion with the given values for your understanding, If B and C will take 1/2 hours then the answer will be 1 that is Option E]

Answer:

Pumps A and B,

A + B = 5/6

Pumps A and C,

A + C = 3/2

Pumps B and C,

B + C = 2

Now we have to find

A + B + C = ?

For this we will add all of the above equations from both sides.

A+B + A+C +B+C = 5/6 + 3/2 + 2

Taking LCM on R.H.S,

2A + 2B + 2C = (5+9+12)/6

2(A+B+C) = 26/6

2(A+B+C)= 13/3

A+B+C = 13/6

It will take 13/6 hours if A,B and C are pumped simultaneously.

John's car is stopped at a red light. When the light changes, the car accelerates to 45 miles per hour in 15 seconds. What is th
Ede4ka [16]
Initial velocity of John's car (V1) = 0 miles per hour
Final velocity of John's car (V2) = 45 miles per hour
Time taken for acceleration = 45 seconds
Then
Acceleration = (V2 - V1)/Time taken
                     = (45 - 0)/15 miles per hour per second
                     = 45/15 miles per hour per second
                     = 3 miles per hour per second.
So the approximate rate of change in the miles per hour that John's car accelerated is 3 miles per hour per second. The correct option among all the options given in the question is option "A".

Can u help solve this ​
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is equal to 90.

This is because the lines that cut the right angle are cutting it in half, so those base angles are 45, leaving the center angle to be 90 (90 + 45 + 45 = 180).

90 = 19x + 4.5

85.5 = 19x

x = 4.5

<u>The value of x that makes the parallelogram a square is 4.5.</u>

Thirty seven divided by nine
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

4.11 (rounded to the hundredth place, the actual answer is 4.1(with the one repeating))

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve 37 divided by 9 you have to do long division or you can use a handheld calculator.

To solve it through long division,

9 can go into 3 zero times

9 can go into 37 four times though

9*4 is 36

So subtract 36 from 37, leaving 1.

9 can go into 1 zero times.

Add a zero behind the one and 9 can go into 10 once.

The pattern continues forever, making the answer 4.1(with the one repeating)

or 4.11 (rounded to the hundredth place)

If you need anymore clarification I can certaintly help.
