36 minutes.

(1/20)x+(1/30)x=1solve for x (x=0.8333333333......)
Considering they take the same times for all 3 pounds,
That would mean that since 1 pound takes 12 minutes, then 3 pounds take 36 minutes

For the square with side length n, the diagonal measures:

d = \sqrt{2} *n

<h3>How to get the length of the diagonal?</h3>

The sidelength of the square is n, and we want to get the length of the diagonal d.

Notice that the diagonal is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose catheti measure n.

Then we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which says that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the cathetus;

d^2 = n^2 + n^2\\\\d^2 = 2n^2\\\\d = \sqrt{2n^2} \\\\d = \sqrt{2}*n

That is the length of the diagonal.

Solve 1/3x - 2/7x &gt; 1/3
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: x > 7

    Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}x- \frac{2}{7}x > \frac{1}{3}

Subtract:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{21}x > \frac{1}{3}

Divide both sides of the equation by \frac{1}{21}:

\displaystyle x > 7

    <u>What does this mean?</u>

This means the x is equal to all values greater than 7.

-> 7.432421, 7.5, 8, 250, etc
