Answer:

  • Nguyen family's sprinkler: 20 L per hour
  • Reed family's sprinkler: 35 L per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n and r represent the output in liters per hour of the Nguyen and Reed family sprinklers, respectively. Then we have ...

  15n +25r = 1175 . . . . total sprinkler output

  n + r = 55 . . . . . . . . . sum of two output rates

The second equation tells us we can substitute n = 55 -r into the first equation:

  15(55 -r) +25r = 1175

  10r = 1175 -825 . . . . . . subtract 825

  r = 350/10 = 35 . . . . . . divide by 10

  n - 55 -35 = 20 . . . . . . find n from r

Nguyen family's sprinkler: 20 L per hour

Reed family's sprinkler: 35 L per hour

A soccer ball made of leather 1/81/8 in thick has an inner diameter of 8.58.5 in . Use the formula V=(4/3)πr3V=(4/3)πr3 to calcu
Sphinxa [80]
1/8 inch thick
inner diameter of 8.5

volume shell=volume total-volume shell


1/8=0.125

diameter/2=radius
radius inner=8.5/2=4.25
radiustotal=inner+outer=4.25+0.125=4.375


so

Vouter-Vinner=(4/3)pi4.375³-(4/3)pi4.25³
Vshell=(4/3)(pi)(4.375³-4.25)
Vshell=(4/3)(pi)(83.740234375-76.765625)
Vshell=(4/3)(pi)(6.974609375)
Vshell=9.299479166666666666666pi cubic inches
Vshell≈16.433536180619 cubic inches
