At 1:00 the water level in a pool is 13 inches at 2:30 in the water level is 28 inches what is the rate of change

1 answer:

4 0

Let x = time, hours, from 1:00
Let y = water level, inches

Note that from 1:00 to 2:30, x = 2.5 - 1.0 = 1.5 hours.

The given data is
x: 0 1.5
y: 13 28.0

The change in x is 1.5 - 0 = 1.5 hours
he change in y is 28 - 13 = 15 inches

The rate of change is (15 inches)/(1.5 hours) = 10 inches/hour

Answer: 10 inches per hour

The units’ digit of a two-digit number is 7 more than the tens’ digit. If 26 is added to the number, the result obtained is five

Vikki [24]

Let the digit in the tens place be x

tens place = x (therefore the value is 10x)
ones place = x + 7
The number is 10x + x + 7

Add 26 to it
10x + x + 7 + 26 = 11x + 33

It is 5 times the sum of the digit
11x + 33 = 5(x + x + 7)
11x 33 = 10x + 35
x = 2
x+ 7 = 2 + 7 = 9

So the number is 29

A tortoise is walking in the desert. It walks at a speed of 5 meters per minute for 62.5 meters. For how many minutes does it wa

Sergio [31]

The question is asking for how many minutes it walks. Since it walks 5 meter per minute and walks 62.5 meters, you have to divide 62.5 by 5 to get how many minutes the tortoise walks. 62.5 divide by 5 is 12.5. in minutes, 0.5 is 30 seconds, therefore the tortoise walked for 12 minutes and 30 seconds or 12 1/2 minutes.
