The Lewis family and the Perry family each used their sprinklers last summer. The water output rate for the Lewis family's sprinkler was 15 L per hour. The water output rate for the Perry family's sprinkler was 40 L per hour. The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 65 hours, resulting in a total water output of 1850 L . How long was each sprinkler used
Answer:
Hours of use of sprinkler by Lewis family is 30 hours.
Hours of use of sprinkler by Perry family is 35 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let W = hours of use by Lewis family
65 - W = hours of use by Perry family
Then;
15W + 40*(65 - W) = 1850
15W + 2600 - 40W = 1850
(15 - 40)W = 1850 - 2600
-25W = −750
W = 750/25 = 30
Therefore;
W = 30
65 - W = 65 - 30 = 35
Hence,
Hours of use by Lewis family is 30 hours.
Hours of use by Perry family is 35 hours.
X=4 ........................................
Answer:
B) 60.21 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle = 1/2bh
You can‘t used mixed measurements (feet and inches), so you have to convert each length to inches
8’6”=102’
14’2”=170’
Now find the area
1/2 x 102 x 170 = 8670 in²
This is one of the answers, but the quetion asks how many quart feet you need.
So, convert it back to feet.
8670 x 0.06944444444 = 60.2083333
(You could also have converted the two lengths to feet. 8’6” = 8.5 ft. 14’2” = 14.16666666. This way would probably have been faster.
1/2 x 8.5 x 14.166666 = 60.20833333)
Answer:
I think the answer is 81.
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertical angles are congruent.
x + 3 = 84
- 3 = -3
--------------
x = 81
