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.
Answer:
hypotenuse aka the longest line on a right angle
Given the equation - x² + 5x = 3, which can be rewritten as:
- x² + 5x - 3 = 0
where a = -1, b = 5 and c = -3.
Quadratic formula:
![\frac{-b\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{b^2\text{ - 4ac}}}{2a}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-b%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Cpm%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Bb%5E2%5Ctext%7B%20-%204ac%7D%7D%7D%7B2a%7D)
Now, we just replace the values of a, b and c on the equation above.
![\frac{-5\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{5^2\text{ - 4(-1)(3)}}}{2(-1)}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-5%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Cpm%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B5%5E2%5Ctext%7B%20-%204%28-1%29%283%29%7D%7D%7D%7B2%28-1%29%7D)
=
![\frac{5}{2}\text{ }\pm\text{ }\frac{\sqrt[]{13}}{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Cpm%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Cfrac%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B13%7D%7D%7B2%7D)
Answer:
log(2)
