Answer:

63.5minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time it takes the small pipe to fill the tank be x

Let the time it takes the larger pipe to fill the tank be y

If the two pipes can fill a tank in 98 minutes if both are turned on then:

x+y = 98...1

If only one is used and it takes 29 minutes longer for the smaller pipe to fill the tank than the larger pipe

x = 29+y... 2

Substituting equation 2 into 1 to get y we have:

29+y+y = 98

29+2y = 98

2y = 98-29

2y = 69

y = 69/2

y = 34.5minutes

x = 29+34.5

x = 63.5

This means it will take the smaller pipe 63.5minutes to fill the tank

Answer:

A. $307,172.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Inez has to pay 4 percent in closing costs and 16 percent for the down payment on a purchase of $225,500 with an ARM.

4% + 16% = 20%

lnez has to pay 20% of $225,500

= 225,500*20/100

= 225,500*0.2

= $45100

lnez has to pay $45100.

Over the life of the loan, lnez will pay $262,072.72

Now we have to add down payment, closing cost and the payment over the life of the loan.

$45100 + $262,072.72

= $307,172.72

Answer: A. $307,172.72
