Left on together, the cold and hot water faucets of a certain bathtub take 8 minutes to fill the tub. If it takes the cold wate

r faucet 18 minutes to fill the tub by itself, how long will it take the hot water faucet to fill the tub on its own

Cf=cold faucet rate
hf=hot faucet rate

cf*18min=1 tub
(cf+hf)*8min=1 tub
cf+hf=1tub/8min
cf=1tub/18min
hf=(1/8-1/18)tubs per minute
hf=5/72

It takes 14.4 minutes.

Multiply:<br>(x+y)by (x+y)<br>a+b by a^2-b^2<br>(a+5) by (a^2-2a-3)<br>(a^2-ab+b^3) by (a+b)

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Multiply:

$(x+y)by (x+y)$

$: \implies(x + y)(x + y)$

$: \implies \: x(x + y) + y(x + y)$

$: \implies {x}^{2} + xy + xy + {y}^{2}$

$: \implies{x}^{2} + 2xy + {y}^{2}$

Multiply:

$a+b \: by \: a^2-b^2$

$: \implies( {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} ) \times (a + b)$

$: \implies \: {a}^{2} (a + b) - {b}^{2} (a + b)$

$: \implies \: {a}^{3} + {a}^{2} b - {ab}^{2} - {b}^{3}$

Multiply:

$(a+5) by (a^2-2a-3)$

$: \implies{(a + 5) \times ( {a}^{2} - 2a - 3) }$

$: \implies \: a({a}^{2} - 2a - 3) + 5( {a}^{2} - 2a - 3)$

$: \implies(a \times {a}^{2} - a \times 2a - a \times 3) + (5 \times {a}^{2} - 5 \times 2a - 5 \times 3)$

$: \implies{a}^{3} - {2a}^{2} - 3a + 5 {a}^{2} - 10a - 15$

$: \implies{ {a}^{3} + {3a}^{2} - 13a - 15}$

Multiply:

$(a^2-ab+b^3) by (a+b)$

$: \implies{(a + b) \times ( {a}^{2} - ab + {b}^{3} )}$

$: \implies \: a( {a}^{2} - ab + {b}^{3}) + b( {a}^{2} - ab + {b}^{3} )$

$: \implies {a}^{3} - {a}^{2} b + a {b}^{3} + {a^2b} - {ab}^{2} + {b}^{4}$

$: \implies{ {a}^{3}+ab^3 - ab^2+ {b}^{4} }$

Answer please? ___ feet per second

Oksanka [162]

Answer: 30 feet per second

========================================

x = diameter, y = speed of water

y varies inversely with respect to x, so, y = k/x for some constant k

If x = 0.6 and y = 5 pair up, then y = k/x turns into 5 = k/0.6 which solves to k = 3 when you multiply both sides by 0.6

So the equation y = k/x turns into y = 3/x

Now plug in the diameter x = 0.1 to find the speed to be...

y = 3/x

y = 3/0.1

y = 30 feet per second

Passes through<br> (-8, 3) and (8, -1).

lawyer [7]

Answer:

Slope = Y2 -Y1 / X2 - X1

Slope = -1 -3 / 8 --8

Slope = -4 / 16

Slope = -1 / 4

To calculate the equation we fill in this equation:

(y - y1) = slope • (x -x1)

We only need to choose 1 point so we'll choose (-8, 3)

(y - 3) = -1 / 4 * (x --8)

So the Equation equals

y = -1 / 4 x -2 + 3

y = -1 / 4x +1
