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

Find the value of y when x equals -1.<br><br> 8x - 2y =10
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

y = - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute in -1 for x

8(-1) - 2y = 10

-8 - 2y = 10

Subtract -8 from both sides

-8 - (-8) cancels out to 0

10 - (-8) = 18

We are left with:

-2y = 18

Divide by -2 on both sides.

-2y/-2 = y

18/-2 = -9

y = -9

F(x) = cot x PRE CALC HELP PLS?!
alisha [4.7K]
Check the picture below.

is it even?  well, even functions use the y-axis as a mirror, so a pre-image on the right-side, will be a mirror of the image on the left-side, but in this case it isn't so, if you put a mirror right on the y-axis, the left-side will look a bit different.

does it have a zero at x = 0?  well, just look at the graph, is the line touching the x-axis at 0? nope.

does it have an asymptote at 0?  well, surely you can see it right there.
