Answer:

It will take 4 hours and 48 minutes with both pipes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add their rates of filling

1st pipe's rate = ( 1 tank ) / ( 12 hrs )

2nd pipe's rate = ( 1 tank ) / ( 8 hrs )

Let, t = hrs to fill tank using both pipes

(1 / 12) + (1 / 8) = (1 / t)

Multiply both sides by 24t

2t + 3t = 24

5t = 24

t = 4.8

0.8 x 60 = 48

It will take 4 hours and 48 minutes with both pipes

MrRissso [65]
Since y=y. set the equations equal to each then solve
2x + 1 = -x + 4
+x +x
3x + 1 = 4
-1 -1
3x = 3

In each diagram, line p is parallel to line f, and line t intersects lines p and f. Based on the diagram, what is the value of x
ololo11 [35]
X would be 84 degrees, since its corresponding angle would be worth 84.

Find the equation of the line that contains the point (3,9) and is parallel to the line y=4x+1. Write the line in slope-intercep
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
Y = 4x + 1....slope here is 4. A parallel line will have the same slope

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 4
(3,9)...x = 3 and y = 9
now we sub and find b, the y int
9 = 4(3) + b
9 = 12 + b
9 - 12 = b
-3 = b

so ur parallel equation is : y = 4x - 3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

24)

200= 3(21) + 4x

200= 63 +4x

-63   -63

137= 4x

divide each side by 4

34 = x

c

25)

.5(pi)= about 1.6

1.6(2.5)= 4

c

44)

equation-     T= 12.17+0.75v

105.75= 12.17 + .75v

-12.17    -12.17

93.58= .75v

divide each side by .75

answer 125
