Answer:

14n - 29

Step-by-step explanation:

First you'd distribute in the parentheses by -5. -5 × -2.4n and -5 × 4 which you would get 12 and -20.

Then, bring everything down and combine like terms. 2n + 12n = 14n || -9 - 20 or -9 - (-20) = -29. 14n - 29 is the lowest you can simplify because you can subtract a variable and a constant together.

A water tank has a square base of area 5 square meters. Initially the tank contains 70 cubic meters. Water leaves the tank, star

ANEK [815]

Answer:

$9.2\ \text{m}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$b$ = Surface area of base = 5 square meters

Volume of water in tank = 70 cubic meters

The rate at which the volume is reducing is

$\dfrac{dV}{dt}=2+4t\\\Rightarrow dV=2+4tdt$

Integrating from $t=0$ to $t=3$

$V=\int^3_0(2+4t)dt\\\Rightarrow V=2t+2t^2|_0^3\\\Rightarrow V=2\times 3+2\times 3^2-0\\\Rightarrow V=24$

Volume of water remaining in the tank is $70-24=46\ \text{m}^3$

Suface area of base $\times$ depth = Volume

$5\times d=46\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{46}{5}\\\Rightarrow d=9.2\ \text{m}$

The depth of the water remaining in the tank is $9.2\ \text{m}$ .
