Answer:

Pool A.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved through ratios. You would write it as \frac{gallons}{minutes} So, \frac{2/3}{15} for the first one, and \frac{2/3}{20} for the second. You might want to use a calculator for that part, but you could also change the gallons to cups, which gives you a much better number of 10.515. So, \frac{10.515}{15} = 0.701, and \frac{10.515}{20} = 0.52575 So, pool A is at a faster rate. If you want it in gallons per minute, it's by 0.01 (with the 1 repeating) gallons per minute. By cups, it's 0.17525 cups per minute.

(The reason I did not do this by cross multiplying and dividing ratios is because it gives you the exact same answer if you are finding it per one, as I am here with per one minute. You can do it this way, it just wastes a bit of time.)

Determine the angle at the centre of a circle with radius 12.0 cm for an arc length of of 21.0 cm.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

\theta=\dfrac{7}{4}\ \text{radian}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Radius of the circle is 12 cm

Arc length, l = 21 cm

It is required to find the central angle of the circle. The formula for the length of an arc of a circle is :

l=r\times \theta

\theta is central angle

\theta=\dfrac{l}{r}\\\\\theta=\dfrac{21}{12}\\\\\theta=\dfrac{7}{4}\ \text{radian}

So, the angle at the centre of the circle is \dfrac{7}{4}\ \text{radian}.

Mhanifa can you please help? I will mark brainliest!

Answer:

<u>Given function</u>

  • h(x) = 2x - 1

#15 Find the inverse of h(x)

<u>Substitute x with y and h(x) with x and solve for y:</u>

  • x = 2y - 1
  • 2y = x + 1
  • y = 1/2x + 1/2

<u>The inverse is:</u>

  • h⁻¹(x) = 1/2x + 1/2

#16 The graph with both lines is attached.

The x- and y-intercepts of both functions have reversed values.

#17 Table of the inverse function  will contain same numbers with swapped domain and range.

<u>Initial look is like this:</u>

  • <u>x        |  -3  |  -2  | -1  |  0  |    1  |  2  | 3</u>
  • h⁻¹(x)  |  -1   |       | 0   |      |    1  |      | 2

<u>The rest of the table is filled in by finding the values:</u>

  • <u>x        |  -3  |  -2    | -1  |  0   |  1  |  2   | 3</u>
  • h⁻¹(x)  |  -1   | -0.5 |  0  | 0.5 |  1  | 1.5 | 2
