Answer: the Russell family used their sprinkler for 40 hours.

the Gonzalez family used their sprinkler for 20 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hours for which the Russell family used their sprinkler.

Let y represent the number of hours for which the Gonzalez family used their sprinkler.

The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 60 hours. It means that

x + y = 60

The water output rate for the Russell family's sprinkler was 35L per hour. The water output rate for the Gonzalez family's sprinkler was 40L per hour. The total water output of both families was 2200L. It means that

35x + 40y = 2200- - - - - - - - - - --1

Substituting x = 60 - y into equation 1, it becomes.

35(60 - y) + 40y = 2200

2100 - 35y + 40y = 2200

- 35y + 40y = 2200 - 2100

5y = 100

y = 100/5

y = 20

x = 60 - y = 60 - 20

x = 40

HELPPP!!!Kelsey uses the similarity statement to describe the triangles below.
Ganezh [65]

RT = 8 , RS = 3 AND ST = 5.4


RV = 4 , RU = 1.5 AND UV = 2.7


∴ RT/RV = 8/4 = 2


AND RS/RU = 3/1.5 = 2


AND ST/UV = 5.4/2.7 = 2


∴Δ RTS IS SIMILAR TO ΔRVU


SO, the best statement is:


Each pair of sides corresponds with a common ratio of 2.

Recently, six single-family homes in San Luis Obispo County in California sold at the following prices (in $1,000s): 560, 468, 6
solmaris [256]

The interval for mean sale price is $582

According to statement

The given rates are 560, 468, 685, 534, 658, 593

Now,

Sample mean = X / n

Put the values in it and then

(560+ 468+ 685+ 534+ 658+ 593) / 6 = 582.1667

and use this formula S = sqrt [ X2 - n 2 / (n-1) ]

and put the values in these and

S = sqrt [ X2 - n 2 / (n-1) ] = 95.97179

So, The interval for mean sale price is $582

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Solve for x</u>

x + 3x + 2x = 180

6x / 6 = 180 / 6

x = 30

<u>Step 2:  Find the measure of angle C</u>

Angle C = 2x

Angle C = 2(30)

Angle C = 60 degrees

Answer:  60
