Answer:
20/7 days (just less than 3 days)
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that (1 job) = (rate)(time), so time = (1 job) / (rate).
Set up and solve the following equation:
1 job
------------------------------- = time required for 2 pumps working together
1 job 1 job
---------- + -------------
4 days 10 days
This comes out to:
1 job
------------------------------------------- = time required
10 job-days 4 job-days
------------------ + -----------------
40 days 40 days
or:
1 job
-------------------- = (40/14) days, or 20/7 days (just less than 3 days)
14 job·days
-----------------
40 days
3x+12=5x-21
-5x -5x
-2x + 12 = -21
-12 -12
-2x=-33
x = 16.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(x²-6x)+(y²+8y)=-21
(x²-6x+9)+(y²+8y+16)=-21+9+16
(x-3)²+(y+4)²=4
