horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rate of Long family's sprinkler is 25 L/hr

rate of Harris family's sprinkler is 35 L/hr

Total time for which sprinkler is used =55 hr

Let long family run their sprinkler for x hr

therefore Harris family time=55-x

Total volume collected=1625 L

thus

$25\times x+35\times (55-x)=1625$

25x+1925-35x=1625

1925-1625=10x

300=10x

x=30 hr

long family used for 30 hr and Harris family used for 20 hr

What is the solution in the equality -3x-42>3?

Umnica [9.8K]

-3x-42>3
-3x>45
x<-15

I chose x<-15 because through the process of elimination, if it was an equality, x=-15. Since it is an inequality, when dividing both sides by a negative, the sign switches.
