Answer: 12 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = time it takes to fill the pool if the inlet pipe and drain pipe are both open
1/6 = portion of pool filled per hour by the inlet pipe
1/12 = portion of pool emptied per hour by the drain
1/x = portion of pool filled per hour if the inlet pipe and drain are both open
Then, 1/6 - 1/12 = 1/x
Multiply by the LCD, 12x, to obtain
2x - x = 12
x = 12 hours
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
15x-31+9×+11+×=180
25×-20=180
25×=200
×=8
15(8)-31=89
9(8)+11=83
8
10 because you know that the decimal moves one to the left if you are dividing by ten and one to the right if you are multiplying by ten.
Check your work. 0.32 divided by 10 is 0.032
