If you would like to know how long will it take to drain the pool, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3 hours ... 250 gallons
x hours = ? ... 150 gallons (= 400 - 250)

3 * 150 = 250 * x
x = 3 * 150 / 250 
x = 1.8 hours

3 hours + 1.8 hours = 4.8 hours

The correct result would be B. 4.8 hours.

You have $5,000 to invest for ten years. The Bank pays simple interest at an annual rate of 5%. Calculate your balance after 10
Mazyrski [523]

Answer: $7,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula: SI = P(1 + rt)

SI = 5000(1 + 0.05[10])

SI = 5000 + 2500

SI = $7,500

After 10 years, your balance should be $7,500

Find the coordinates of the center and the measure of the radius for a circle whose equation is (x-3)^2 + (y-7)^2=2
igomit [66]

Answer:

fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

(x - 3)² + (y - 7)² = 2 ← is in standard form

with centre = (h, k) = (3, 7) and r² = 2 ⇒ r = \sqrt{2}

Determine two pairs of polar coordinates for the point (4, -4) with 0° ≤ θ < 360°.
umka2103 [35]
A polar coordinate is that which can be written as (r, θ) where r is the radius and θ is the angle. 

The radius, r, is also the hypotenuse of the right triangle that can be formed. Hence, it can be calculated through the equation,
    
                   r² = x² + y²
If we are to simplify this for the r alone, we have,
                     r = sqrt (x² + y²)

Substituting the known values,
               r = sqrt ((4)² + (-4)²) = 4√2

The x and y can be related through the trigonometric function, tangent. 
      tan θ = y/x
To solve for θ
   θ = tan⁻¹(y/x) = tan⁻¹(-4/4) = -45° = 315°

Hence, the polar coordinate is <em>(4√2, 315°)</em>

Answer:

D.) 2(x-3)(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 -14x +24 = 2(x^2 - 7x + 12)

12 = 3*4

3*1 + 4*1 = 7
