Answer:

60 minutes for the larger hose to fill the swimming pool by itself

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Working together, it takes two different sized hoses 20 minutes to fill a small swimming pool.

takes 30 minutes for the larger hose to fill the swimming pool by itself

Let x be the efficiency to fill the swimming pool by larger hose

and y be the efficiency to fill the swimming pool by larger hose

<u>To find LCM of 20 and 30</u>

LCM (20, 30) = 60

<u>To find the efficiency </u>

Let x be the efficiency to fill the swimming pool by larger hose

and y be the efficiency to fill the swimming pool by larger hose

x = 60/30 =2

x + y = 60 /20 = 3

Therefore efficiency of y = (x + y) - x =3 - 2 = 1

so, time taken to fill the swimming pool by small hose = 60/1 = 60 minutes

A triangle is placed in a semicircle with a radius of 7mm , as shown below. Find the area of the shaded region. Use the value 3.
timurjin [86]
We either need to see a picture of this and/or get more information about the measurements of the triangle. In general, the area outside of the triangle will be the area of the semi-circle minus the area of the triangle itself, or: 1/2*49*3.14 - 1/2 b*h of the triangle. That first part, which is the area of the semi-circle, works out to 76.93 So based on the info we have, it becomes 76.93 - 1/2*b*h of the triangle = area outside of triangle.

Blueberries cost $4 per pound for each question explain how you show your reasoning music table to help you organize information
aleksley [76]

Answer:

1. Either none (if you have to buy a whole pound), or 1/4 of a pound

2. 3 whole pounds or 3 and 1/4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

If $4 = 1 pound, then we know that $1 (which is 1/4 of $4), will let you by 1/4 pound of blueberries. Knowing this, we can simply:

Add up the one fourths

do 1/4 times $$

See how many times 4 goes into the number of dollars you have

Please correct me if I'm wrong :)
