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).

The unit measurement of the a volume in mm is mm³(millimetres cube.)

<h3>How to find volume ?</h3>

Volume is is defined as the space occupied within the boundaries. The objects are usually solid objects.

The volume of a 3 dimensional figure is the product of the base area and the height.

Therefore, the units of volume is measured in cubic units.

The volume of a prism with side lengths measured in millimetres is 20.

Therefore, the measurement can be represented as follows:

I'm pretty sure it would be <span>x - y + 1 = 0 because if you plug in one of the coordinates into each equation, this is the only one that works.

</span><span>y - x + 1 = 0
2 - 1 + 1 = 0
2 = 0 not correct

</span><span>x - y + 1 = 0
1 - 2 + 1 = 0
0 = 0 correct

</span><span>-x - y + 1 = 0
-1 - 2 + 1 = 0
-2 = 0 not correct
</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

4. The distance between the x axis and the point (8,3) is 3 units

5. Triangle  will be formed if the points A(-3, 0), B (0,3) and C (3,0) are joined together

6. Since the point lie on the y-axis, its x co-ordinate will be zero and the point will be (0,2)
