The solutions are where these two functions intersect, that is, at x = -4 and x = -6. The answer is C.
Answer:
1 1/3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Pipe 1 alone:
fills the pool in 2 hours
in 1 hour, it fills 1/2 of the pool
Pipe 2 alone:
fills the pool in 4 hours
in 1 hour, it fills 1/4 of the pool
Pipe 1 and Pipe 2 working together:
fill the pool in x hours
in 1 hour, they fill 1/x of the pool
Working together, in 1 hour the two pipes fill 1/2 + 1/4 of the pool.
Working together, in 1 hour the two pipes fill 1/x of the pool.
Therefore,
1/2 + 1/4 = 1/x
2/4 + 1/4 = 1/x
3/4 = 1/x
x = 4/3
x = 1 1/3
Answer: 1 1/3 hours
This is how you do it: you put mile 96 over 3 and if u wanna know how many it will run in 1 hour. You cross multiply so you multiply 96 times1 and you get 96 but now you have to divide it by 3. If you do that you'll get the answer which is 32. There are other ways to do it but I just think it's way easier this way
Do you still need the question
Answer:I think it's 3 7.75/20 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 2/15 by 20 (2x20 and 15x20)
Then 13/20 by 15 (13x15 and 20x15)
Subtract (195/300 - 40/300)
And you get 155/300
Then divide by 20 because dividing by 15 gives you 10.333333
So divide 155/300 by 20 (155÷20 and 300÷20)
And you get 7.75/20
Finally subtract the 2 hours from 5 hours and get 3 hours
Your answer is 3 7.75 hours
