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

What is the value of x in the trangle? Enter your answer in the box. Round your final answer to the nearest hundredth.​
-Dominant- [34]

Use trigonometry.

cos(18°) = x/25

Multiply both sides by 25.

cos(18°)25 = x

23.7764129074 = x

We round off to the nearest hundredth. This means to round off to two decimal places.

Doing so, we get 23,78 cm = x.

P is the set of natural numbers that are less than 12
Damm [24]

Answer:

{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 }

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the definition, a natural number is a counting number (non-fractional number) that is greater than zero, but not equal to zero.

A set of natural numbers below 12 (but not including 12, because such isn't specified) would henceforth be;

{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 }
