Answer:

22.75 minutes or 22 minutes 45 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, this is a working together question. Let’s walk through it together!

Firstly, let’s say the total volume of the swimming pool is x sq.meters

Now, the rate of the smaller hose would be x/65 while that of the larger will be x/35

Now, their combined rate would be x/65 + x/35 = 100x/2275

Now, since the volume is x, the time taken is simply, the volume divided by the joint rate. That is mathematically equal to x divided by 100x/2275

x * 2275/100x = 2275/100 = 22.75 minutes or 22 minutes 45 seconds

Make bottom number same

ok, so remember
(a-b)(a+b)=a²+b²
so

to get from (y-x) to (y²-x²), multiply 2nd fraction by (y+x)

so multiply 2nd fraction by (y+x)/(y+x)
\frac{2x}{y^2-x^2}- \frac{(y+x)(x)}{y^2-x^2}=
\frac{2x-x(x+y)}{y^2-x^2}=
\frac{2x-x^2-xy}{y^2-x^2}

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 60 meters. Its area is 200 square meters. Find its dimensions.
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

20 m by 10 m

Step-by-step explanation:

let w be width and l be length , then

2(l + w) = 60 ( divide both sides by 2 )

l + w = 30 ( subtract w from both sides )

l = 30 - w → (1)

lw = 200 → (2)

Substitute l = 30 - w into (2)

w(30 - w) = 200 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

30w - w² = 200 ( subtract 200 from both sides )

30w - w² - 200 = 0 ( multiply through by - 1 )

w² - 30w + 200 = 0 ← in standard form

(w - 10)(w - 20) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for w

w - 10 = 0 ⇒ w = 10

w - 20 = 0 ⇒ w = 20

Substitute these values into (1)

l = 30 - 10 = 20

l = 30 - 20 = 10

dimensions of field is 20 m by 10 m
