Answer:
Hose A fills at a rate of 10 gal per min
Hose B fills at a rate of 8 gal per min
Hose B fills at a faster rate
Step-by-step explanation:
D)One solution. b=5
Distribute 2 times b plus 2 times 3
2b+6
2b+6+2b=26
Combine like terms 4b+6=26
Subtract 6 from both sides
4b=20
Divide both sides by 4
b=5
Check by substituting 5 for b
2 (5+3)+2(5)=26
2(8) + 2(5)=26
16+10=26
26=26
Answer:
88
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve inside first
2^3=8
8+5= 13
Now multiply by 4
=52
Now by 2
=104
Now this is what we have left
=104-4^2
Make it easy by solving 4^2 which is 16.
104-16
=88

<u>Complete Question:</u>
Janeel has a 10 inch by 12 inch photograph. She wants to scan the photograph, then reduce the results by the same amount in each dimension to post on her Web site. Janeel wants the area of the image to be one eight of the original photograph. Write an equation to represent the area of the reduced image. Find the dimensions of the reduced image.
<u>Correct Answer:</u>
A) 
B) Dimensions are : Length = 10-x = 3 inch , Breadth = 12-x = 5 inch
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
a. Write an equation to represent the area of the reduced image.
Let the reduced dimensions is by x , So the new dimensions are

According to question , Area of new image is :
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
So the equation will be :
⇒ 
b. Find the dimensions of the reduced image
Let's solve : 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
By Quadratic formula :
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒
x = 15 is rejected ! as 15 > 10 ! Side can't be negative
⇒ 
Therefore, Dimensions are : Length = 10-x = 3 inch , Breadth = 12-x = 5 inch
