Answer:

0.6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the swimming pool is 12,000 gallons.

The flow rate of the cold water pipe is:

12000 gal / 4 hr = 3000 gal/hr

The flow rate of the hot water pipe is:

12000 gal / 6 hr = 2000 gal/hr

If the cold water pipe is turned on for three hours, the volume of water is:

3000 gal/hr × 3 hr = 9000 gal

That leaves 3000 gallons.  The time to fill the rest of the pool with both the cold and hot water pipes is:

3000 gal / (3000 gal/hr + 2000 gal/hr) = 0.6 hr

It takes 0.6 hours (36 minutes).

Please I need help on this ! If anyone can that would be great!! <3

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

(A)The given equations are:

x-y=3 and x+y=3

Taking the ordered pair (3,0),

3-0=3 and 3+0=3 which is satisfied. Thus, option A (3,0) is correct.

(B) The two equations are:

x-y=3 and x+y=3

Adding both the equations, we get

2x=6

x=3

Therefore, substituting the value of x in any of the two given equations,

3-y=3

y=6

Hence, x=3 and y=6

(C) Let "b" represents Becky's score and "C" be Cathy's score.

Then, According to the question, we get

b=c-5 and b+c=185

Thus, Option B is correct.

(D) The given equations are:

x+y=6 and x=y+5

Now, substituting the value of x=y+5 in the equationx+y=6, we get

(y+5)+y=6

Thus, option C  is correct.

Answer:  1) Product property of logarithm,

2) Subtraction property of logarithm

3) Equality property of logarithm

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Product property of logarithm,

log a + log b = log(a.b)

And, By the Subtraction property of logarithm

log a - log b = log(a/b)

Also, by the equality property of logarithm,

log(a) = log(b) ⇒ a = b

Given expression,

log_2(5)+log_2(x+2)-log_2(x+1)=log_2(7)                                                                

\implies log_2(5(x+2))-log_2(x+1))=log_2(7)  (Product property of logarithm)

\implies log_2(\frac{5(x+2)}{2(x+1)})=log_2(7)  (Subtraction property of logarithm)

\implies \frac{5(x+2)}{2(x+1)}=7   ( Equality property of logarithm )

\implies 5(x+2)=7(x+1)    ( Multiplicative property of equality )

\implies 5x+10=7x+7  ( Distributive property of equality )

\implies 3=2x    (subtraction property of equality )

x=\frac{3}{2}       (division property of equality )
