Suppose the larger pump alone can empty the tank in L hours, and the smaller pump can finish the job in S hours, then each hour the large pump empties 1/L portion of the tank, and the small pump empties 1/S per hour
Working together for three hours, they empty the whole tank, which is 100% of it, so 3/L+3/S=100%=1
Larger pump can empty the tank in 4 hours less than the smaller one, so L=S-4
replace L: 3/(S-4)+3/S=1
Make the denominator the same to solve for:
3S/[S(S-4)] +3(S-4)/[S(S-4)]=1
(3S+3S-12)/[S(S-4)]=1
(3S+3S-12)=[S(S-4)]
S^2-10s+12=0
use the quadratic formula to solve for S
S is about 8.6
The answer is not whole hour.
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first you make sure to multiply the parenthesis by the negative so then it would be,
-x-3=2x-6
Then you add the -3 from the right to the other side
so, -x=2x-3
Then you want all the X variables to one side so you subtract the 2x to both sides.
so, -3x=-3
divide both by -3
x=1
Answer:
(0,7) and (2,4) go to slope =-3/2
(1,-3) and (-1,-3) go to zero slope
(0,0) and (2,1) go to slope =1/2
(0,-1) and (2,-5) go to slope =-2
and (-1,3) and (-1,-3) go to no slope
