To solve this problem, let's set up a proportion, letting x represent the unknown number of gallons the faucet loses in 48 hours.
5 gallons / 20 hours = x gallons / 48 hours
To solve this proportion, we are going to use cross-products. This is the products of numerator of one fraction and the denominator of the other fraction set equal to one another. It results in the equation:
5 * 48 = 20 * x
Next we simplify by performing the operations.
240 = 20x
Finally, we divide both sides by 20 to get x alone on the right side of the equation.
12=x
Therefore, 12 gallons of water will be lost in 48 hours.
So u hav two numbers one is the multiple of another (so like 2 and 4) ( it can go into the other number) then the least common multiple of the other
I think an answer would be if u do 2 and 4 the LCM would be 2 (don’t know if I’m right not sure about my LCM)
Can you help me with my question please?
Answer:
Use trigonometric ratio
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is one side and angle of the triangle that is given, it is assumed that the triangle is a right-angled triangle
To solve for one of the two unknown lengths, use trigonometric ratio
There are 3 basic trigonometric ratio namely Sine (sin), Cosine (cos) and Tangent (tan)
Sine of the angle given = opposite side ÷ hypotenuse side
Cosine of the angle given = adjacent side ÷ hypotenuse side
Tangent of the angle given = opposite side ÷ adjacent side
Assuming the length given is the hypotenuse side and the angle is inclined to the horizontal
To find the opposite side of the triangle, multiply the hypotenuse side by the sine of the angle given
This is the answer to your question
