Answer:

At a combined speed of 6 in/min, it takes us 24 mins to clean the wall

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question did not provide the speed with which each student cleans, we can make assumptions. This is so that we can solve the question before us

Assuming student 1 cleans at a speed of 2 inches per minute, student 2 cleans at a speed of 2½ inches per minute & student 3 cleans at a speed of 1½ inches per minute.

Let's list the parameters we have:

Height of wall (h) = 12 ft, Speed (student 1) = 2 in/min, Speed (student 2) = 2½ in/min, Speed (student 3) = 1½ in/min

Speed of cleaning wall = Height of wall ÷ Time to clean wall

Time to clean wall (t) = Height of wall ÷ Speed of cleaning wall

since students 1, 2 and 3 are working together, we will add their speed together; v = (2 + 2½ + 1½) = 6 in/min

1 ft = 12 in

Time (t) = h ÷ v = (12 * 12) ÷ 6 = 144 ÷ 6

Time (t) = 24 mins

rewona [7]

Answer:

24 times

Step-by-step explanation:

cone is used to fill cylinder

conevolume times x=cylindervolume

so

x=cylinderv/conev

cylinderv=hpir^2

conevolume=1/3hpir^2

cylinder:

v=hpir^2

r=10

h=20

v=20*pi*10^2=2000π

cone=1/3hπr²

r=5

h=10

v=1/3(10)π5²=250π/3

volume of cylinder ÷ volume of cone

= 2000π ÷ (250π÷3)

= 6000π ÷ 250π

= 600÷25

= 24
