Answer:

<em />

  • <em>It takes</em><u>     2.5 minutes   </u><em>to fill the tank.</em>

Explanation:

The net speed or net rate for filling the 10-liters tank is equal to the speed the tap is filling less the speed the water is leaking through the hole located at the bottom of the tank:

  • Net rate = rate of filling - rate of leaking
  • Net rate = 5 liters/minute - 1 liter/minute
  • Net rate = 4 liters/minute

Thus, consiedering the tank is empty at the beginning, the time is:

  • Time = Volume of the tank / net rate of filling
  • Time = 10 liters / (4liters/minute)
  • Time = 2.5 minutes ← answer

How do you do this problem?
erastovalidia [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

∫₀² x f(x²) dx

If u = x², then du = 2x dx, and ½ du = x dx.

When x = 0, u = 0.  When x = 2, u = 4.

∫₀⁴ ½ f(u) du

½ (16)

I’m sorry but need help
arsen [322]

These are pretty easy once you get the concept.

think of <em>random letter</em> (x) as the term y, so in the case of p(x)=-3+4x, its just asking what is y when x equals all those values.

so p(-2) = -3 + 4(-2), since its asking to plug in -2 for x, which equals -11

p(0) = -3 + 4(0)

= -3

p(5) = -3 + 4(5)

= 17
