Answer:
52
Step-by-step explanation:
given that the number is a
The expression for Ten less than 5 times the value of a number is given by
5a - 10
10 times the quantity of 12 more than one-fourth of the number.
a/4 is one-fourth of number
12 more than one-fourth of the number
a/4 + 12
expression for 10 times the quantity of 12 more than one-fourth of the number. is given by
10(a/4 + 12) = 10a/4 + 12*10 = 2.5a + 120
Given that the above two expression are equal
equating them we have
5a - 10 = 2.5a + 120
adding 10 both sides
=>5a - 10+ 10 = 2.5a + 120 + 10
=> 5a = 2.5a + 130
subtracting 2.5a from both sides
=> 5a - 2.5a = 2.5a + 130 - 2.5a
=> 2.5a = 130
dividing both side by 2.5
=> a = 130/2.5 = 52
Thus, value of a is 52
Let after n week both tanks have same quantity of water .
for first tank
=============
tank hold 540 gallon of water ,
leaking of water 4 gallon /week
so, in n week water leak from the tank =4× n = 4n
now, after n week quantity of water in the tank = 540 -4n
for second tank
==============
quantity of water in the tank =720 gallon
leaking of water at the rate = 7gallon/week
so, after n week water leak from the tank = 7× n =7n
after n week quantity of water rest in the tank = 720 -7n
now ,
according to question ,
water in first tank = water in second tank
540 -4n = 720 -7n
7n -4n = 720 -540
3n = 180
n = 60
hence , after 60 week both tank have same quantity of water.
Assuming they start saving at 0 dollars
45=total=duanesavings+micksavings
duanesavings=confusing, I will explain
mick savings =amount saves per week times number of weeks
duane saves 5 dollars every other week, aka 2.5 dollars per 1 week
DS=2.5w
MS=2w
since they save at same time and at that week, when the weeks are equal (w=w), 45 it total
DS+MS=45
2.5w+2w=45
4.5w=45
divide by 4.5 both sides
w=10
10 weeks
