Answer: It is asking the amount of pure water.
Amount of pure water evaporated is 64 gallons .
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x gallons be the amount of evaporated water.
Amount of water before evaporation
=12% of 160
= 0.12(160) = 19.2 gallons .......(1)
amount of solution after x gallon water evaporation = 160-x
amount of salt in 160-x solution = 20% of 160-x
=0.2 (160-x) ........... (2)
Since amount of salt will be same before and after evaporation
from (1 ) and (2)
0.2(160-x) = 19.2
32-0.2x = 19.2
-0.2x = 19.2-32
-0.2x = -12.8
x = -12.8/(-0.2)
x = 64 gallons
Domain: x is greater than or equal to 7
Range: y is greater than or equal to 9
55.80 + 55.80 (.027) = 57.3066 or $57.31
Answer:
The amount Trevor's family pay per minute on shower water is $0.005.
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of water is,
Cost = $0.20/liter
Amount of water used over the entire month:
Amount of water used = 72 liters
Compute the total water cost as follows:
Total water cost = Amount of water used × Cost
= 72 × 0.20
= $14.4/liter
The average number of minutes each person showered is:
Average number of minutes = 480 minutes.
The number of people in Trevor's house:
N = 6
Compute the total amount of time the 6 person showered as follows:
Total amount of time = Average number of minutes × N
= 480 × 6
= 2880 minutes
Compute the pay per minute on shower water as follows:
Pay per minute on water = Total water cost ÷ Total amount of time
= $14.4 ÷ 2880
= $0.005
Thus, the amount Trevor's family pay per minute on shower water is $0.005.
