2. Water is leaking from a faucet at a constant rate of 1/3 gallon per minute.

Answer:

W = \frac{1}{3}t

20 gallons of water is leaked after an hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Water is leaking at a constant rate of 1/3 gallon per minute.

a) We have to write a linear equation in two variables that show the amount of water, w, in gallons, that is leaked from the faucet after t minutes.

So, the equation is W = \frac{1}{3}t ......... (1) (Answer)

b) Now, if t = 1 hour i.e. 60 minutes, then from equation (1) we can write

W = \frac{1}{3}\times 60 = 20 gallons.

Therefore, 20 gallons of water is leaked after an hour. (Answer)

Eve is making a bird house. To make the walls she takes a piece of wood and cuts it into 4 pieces in the ratio 5:6:6:7. The long
allsm [11]

Answer:

The original piece of wood is 108 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given ratio, the shortest is of the ratio 5 and the longest is of the ratio 7

Let the original piece of wood be x

so the sum of the ratios will be;

5 + 6 + 6 + 7 = 24

the shortest length would be 5/24 * x

= 5x/24

the longest will be 7/24 * x = 7x/24

From the question;

7x/24 -5x/24 = 9

(7x-5x) = 24(9)

2x = 24(9)

x = (24 * 9)/2

x = 108 cm

A cubical water tank can contain 1000/125 cubic meters of water. Find the length of a
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

2 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a cube of sidelength L has a volume:

V = L^3

Here, we know that the volume of water that the cube can hold is:

(1000/125) m^3

Then the volume of our cube is exactly that:

V = (1000/125) m^3

Then we have the equation:

L^3 = (1000/125) m^3

Which we can solve for L

L = ∛((1000/125) m^3 ) = (∛1000/∛125) m

Where we used that:

∛(a/b) = ∛a/∛b

Solving the cubic roots, we get:

L = (10/5) m = 2m

The length of the side of the water tank is 2 meters.
