Answer:
60 minutes for the larger hose to fill the swimming pool by itself
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
Working together, it takes two different sized hoses 20 minutes to fill a small swimming pool.
takes 30 minutes for the larger hose to fill the swimming pool by itself
Let x be the efficiency to fill the swimming pool by larger hose
and y be the efficiency to fill the swimming pool by larger hose
<u>To find LCM of 20 and 30</u>
LCM (20, 30) = 60
<u>To find the efficiency </u>
Let x be the efficiency to fill the swimming pool by larger hose
and y be the efficiency to fill the swimming pool by larger hose
x = 60/30 =2
x + y = 60 /20 = 3
Therefore efficiency of y = (x + y) - x =3 - 2 = 1
so, time taken to fill the swimming pool by small hose = 60/1 = 60 minutes
Answer:
m = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
2m + -4 = 10
Reorder the terms:
-4 + 2m = 10
Solving
-4 + 2m = 10
Solving for variable 'm'.
Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + 2m = 10 + 4
Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + 2m = 10 + 4
2m = 10 + 4
Combine like terms: 10 + 4 = 14
2m = 14
Divide each side by '2'.
m = 7
Simplifying
m = 7
