Answer:
so the answer will be 1
Step-by-step explanation:
An oil tanker can be emptied by the main pump in 5 hours.
An auxilary pump can empty the tanker in 14 hours.
If the main pump is started at 7pm, when should the auxilary pump be started
so that the tanker is emptied by 11pm?
:
Let t = no. of hrs to run the Aux pump
:
The main pump will run 4 hr (7 - 11 pm)
:
Let the completed job = 1; (an empty Tanker)
:
The shared work equation
4%2F5 + t%2F14 = 1
Multiply equation by 70 to get rid of the equation, results:
14(4) + 5t = 70
56 + 5t = 70
5t = 70 - 56
5t = 14
t = 14%2F5
t = 2.8 hrs to run the aux pump
:
2.8 hr = 2 + .8(60) = 2 hrs 48 min
:
Subtract 2:48 from 11:00 = 8:12 PM start the aux pump
;
;
Check solution
4/5 + 2.8/14 =
.8 + .2 = 1
Answer: What graph?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer is y=-x+9.
The first thing to do is find where the line intercepts the y-axis, which is at positive 9 so you'll add a +9 to the end of your equation. Next you find the slope and since it's going down left to right, you know it is a negative. Now slope is found by change in y divided by change in x. And since both change and y and change in x are both 1, 1/1 is 1. And since you know it's negative that means the slope is -x. Altogether you get y= -x+9
Answer:
The second equation is correct.
y=2.25x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can systematically eliminate the others.
For equation 3 and 4, 6.5*2 and 12*x is already bigger than 8 of the first set of numbers.
For equation 1, 2*x+8.5 is also bigger than 8 from the first set.
Plugging in the values to equation 2, we always get the correct cost.
First, make up some variables to represent the number of Girls and Boys in the choir.
B = number of boys
G = number of girls
You know that there are 4 times as many girls in the choir as boys. Therefore, the equation you can write is:

If you cross-multiply, then you get the simplified equation:
G = 4B
Intuitively this makes sense since if you multiplied the number of boys in the class by 4, that would be equal to the number of girls you have.
Now, we know that the total class size is 60. So girls plus boys equals 60:
G+B = 60
To solve the equation, replace the G in this equation with the replacement you found before, 4B.
G + B = 60 -->
4B + B = 60 -->
5B = 60 -->
B = 12
However, you are trying to find the number of girls, so plug the answer back into your equation.
G + B = 60 -->
G + 12 = 60 -->
G + 12 -12 = 60 - 12 -->
G = 48
The number of girls you have is 48.
