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

The answer is straightforward, by the "rule of product":

There are

3×8×2=48

3×8×2=48

different combinations (distinct possible cars) that can be created.

There 33 choices for body style; 88 choices for exterior colors, and 22 choices of interior color schemes:

Since each of these choices are independent (the choice of body style doesn't depend on exterior or interior color, e.g.) we multiply the number of choices for each quality to obtain: 3×8×2=483×8×2=48 distinct ways to create a car

vredina [299]

Answer:

equation of line

x-2y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

equation of line in slope intercept form

(y-y1)={(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)}(x-x1)

 or,(y+3)={(-5+3)/(-2-2)}(x-2)

 or,(y+3)=(1/2)(x-2)

  or,2y+6=x-2

   or,6+2    =x-2y  

or,x-2y=8

You combine the first 2 “K” and that would make it k squared meaning it equals to 1 so now it’s 3k minus 3k so 0
