It would take the faucet 18 hours to fill the tank because 18/12=1.5. That means it will be 1.5 times slower to fill the tank up with the hose on. 1.5*12=18.
The complete question is as follows.
The equation a =
can be used to determine the area , <em>a</em>, of a trapezoid with height , h, and base lengths,
and
. Which are equivalent equations?
(a) 
(b) 
(c)
= 
(d) 
(e)
= h
Answer: (a)
; (d)
;
Step-by-step explanation: To determine
:
a = 
2a = (
)h


To determine h:
a = 
2a = 
= h
To determine 
a = 
2a = 


Checking the alternatives, you have that
and
= h, so alternatives <u>A</u> and <u>D</u> are correct.
Answer:
It depends.
Step-by-step explanation:
For 6 years:

On average, you would have to be profiting:
per year
For 4 years:

On average, you would have to be profiting:
per year.
It would be better to have the longer term option - although you will be paying off more in total, you would be paying off a smaller portion of your earnings.
However, you may want to pay off the loan faster as you would no longer have to worry about it, and it would be cheaper to pay off over the shorter period.
