Answer:

<em>It takes 21 hours to fill the pool</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first plan out our problem at hand. If we were to determine the volume of this swimming pool by multiplication of it's dimensions (length * width * height) we could determine how long it would take to fill the pool by dividing this volume by the rate at which the pool fills. This is true as R = D/T, and here we isolate T (time) so that T = D/R, where D is the volume of the pool, and R is the rate at which it fills:

1. Calculate the volume of the pool -

V = length * width * height = 12 * 24 * 6 = 1728 cubic feet

2. Substitute R (rate) into T = D/R to find T (time) -

T = D/R = 1728/86 = (About) 20.09 hours

Now to round this value, we would have to round it up as sparing 20 hours would not fill the pool: 21 hours

Y=1/3x-3<br> Y=-x+5 <br> How do I solve
ehidna [41]

Since both equations are equal to y, we can just combine them like this:

1/3x-3=-x+5

1/3x=-x+8

4/3x=8 (since x is 1x which is 3/3x)

x=6

Plug x back in:

y=-6+5

y=-1

So x=6 and y=-1

Hope this helped!

Send help asap i hate school smh please i will give brainlist
inn [45]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question tells us that 2.54 cm is equivalent to 1 inch. The next part wants to know what 5.08 cm is in inches. We can just divide 5.08 by 2.54 to figure that out.

5.08/2.54 = 2

This means that 5.08 cm is 2 inches.

The next one wants to know how many centimeters 10 inches is. We can 2.54 and multiply it by 10.

2.54 · 10 = 25.4

This means that 25.4 cm is 10 inches.
