Two pipes running together can fill a tank in 20 minutes.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

45, 36

Step-by-step explanation:

let x y minutes be the time for pipes to fill the tank, let n be the water needed to fill the tank.

x-y=9

(n/x)*20+(n/y)*20=n

n is removed by dividing the 2nd equation by n

here u get:

(1/x+1/y)*20=1

you sub x=9+y into the above equation

1/y+1/(9+y)=1/20

((9+y)+(y))*20=(9+y)(y)

180+40y=9y+y2

y2-31y-180=0

then use the quadratic formula and u will find y=36 or -5

-5 is rejected because it is negative

x=36+9=45

therefore it is 36 mins and 45 mins

Answer:

∠B ≈ 56.25°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the cosine ratio to solve for B

cosB = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{BC}{AB} = \frac{5}{9}, thus

B = cos^{-1}(\frac{5}{9} ) ≈ 56.25°

For a normal distribution what percentage of data falls within one standard deviation of the mean
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

For a normal distribution 68% of data falls within one standard deviation from mean on both sides of mean

Step-by-step explanation:

A normal distribution's graph is a bell shaped curve that is completely described by its mean and standard deviation. Standard deviation is measured in terms of distance from mean.

34% of data is covered in one standard deviation from mean on one side.

Therefore, for a normal distribution 68% of data falls within one standard deviation from mean on both sides of mean ..
