Three hours after the bus starts out, it's 150 miles ahead of the truck. Then the truck starts out, and it gains (65-50)=15 miles on the bus every hour. If neither of them ever stops for anything, the truck will catch up to the bus in ( 150/15 ) = 10 hours. . . . (The hint is useless.)

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The x intercept is (8,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x intercept set y = 0 and solve for x

Y=3/4x - 6

0 =3/4x - 6

6 = 3/4x

4/3 *6 = 4/3*3/4x

The x intercept is (8,0)

A swimming pool holds 480,000 liters of water. The pool has two drainage pipes. When the pool is completely full, the first pipe
sweet-ann [11.9K]
The answer is 96 min, here is why:

x / 240 + x / 160 = 1 
<span>2x + 3x = 480 </span>
<span>5x = 480 </span>
<span>x = 96 min

(</span><span>Drainage rate of first pipe = 480000/240 = 2000 l/min </span>
<span>Drainage rate of second tube = 480000/160 = 3000 l/min </span>
<span>Combined drainage rate = 5000 l/min </span>
<span>Time to drain = 480000/5000 = 96 min. )</span>
