Answer:

After 2.5 minutes the pool will have 27 gallons of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pool has already 12 gallons of water and Eric wants to fill it to at least 27 gallons.

The water is flowing at a rate of 6 gallons per minute.

Let, after t minutes the pool will have at least 27 gallons of water.

Therefore, we can write the equation as

27 = 12 + 6t

⇒ 6t = 15

⇒ t = 2.5 minutes.

Therefore, after 2.5 minutes the pool will have 27 gallons of water. (Answer)

Find an equation of the circle that satisfies the given conditions.

hodyreva [135]

The equation of a circle:
$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$
(h,k) - the coordinates of the centre
r - the radius

The midpoint of the diameter is the centre of a circle.
The coordinates of the midpoint:
$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$
(x₁,y₁), (x₂,y₂) - the coordinates of endpoints

$P(-1,1) \\
x_1=-1 \\ y_1=1 \\ \\ Q(5,9) \\ x_2=5 \\ y_2=9 \\ \\
\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}=\frac{-1+5}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2 \\ \frac{y_1+y_2}{2}=\frac{1+9}{2}=\frac{10}{2}=5$

The centre of the circle is (2,5).

The radius is the distance between an endpoint of the diameter and the centre.
The formula for distance:
$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$(-1,1) \\ x_1=-1 \\ y_1=1 \\ \\ (2,5) \\ x_2=2 \\ y_2=5 \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(2-(-1))^2+(5-1)^2}=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}=\sqrt{9+16}=\sqrt{25}=5$

The radius is 5.

$(x-2)^2+(y-5)^2=5^2 \\
\boxed{(x-2)^2+(y-5)^2=25}$
