Answer:

a) 12 feet per minute

b) 84 feet

c) 10 minutes

d)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) find the slope using furmula: y1 - y2/x1 - x2

24 - 12/2 - 1

12/1

12

12 feet per minute

b) 12 feet per minute so multiply the slope, 12 by 7

12 * 7 = 84

c) 12 * time, t, = feet deep

12 * t = 120

12t = 120

/12 /12

t = 10

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

It will take 5 hours and 5 minutes to fill the tank

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the time taken to fill the tap

Let us have the rate per hour

A fills in 6 hours; so the fraction filled in an hour is 1/6

B fills in 8 hours, so the fraction filled in an hour is 1/8

C empties in 10 hours, so the fraction removed per hour is 1/10

So factoring the supply and removal, where removal is on a negative basis

we have it that in an hour, the fraction retained is;

1/6 + 1/8 - 1/10

= (20 + 15 - 12)/120

= 23/120

So this is the fraction retained per hour

The number of hours it will take to have a whole is simply the reciprocal of this fraction

That would simply be 120/23 = 5 5/23

5 hours and 5 minutes

−2(−3x+4)+3x−3=−29 what does x equal
gogolik [260]

Answer:

x = −2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−2(−3x+4)+3x−3=−29

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2(−3x+4)+3x−3=−29

(−2)(−3x)+(−2)(4)+3x+−3=−29(Distribute)

6x+−8+3x+−3=−29

(6x+3x)+(−8+−3)=−29(Combine Like Terms)

9x+−11=−29

9x−11=−29

Step 2: Add 11 to both sides.

9x−11+11=−29+11

9x=−18

Step 3: Divide both sides by 9.

9x /9  =  −18 /9

x=−2

I hope this helps!!!

Solve using square roots 3x^2+25=73
seropon [69]
Heya !

Given expression -

3 {x}^{2} + 25 = 73

Subtracting 25 both sides ,

3 {x}^{2} + 25 - 25 = 73 - 25 \\ \\ 3 {x}^{2} = 48

Dividing by 3 on both sides ,

\frac{3 {x}^{2} }{3} = \frac{48}{3} \\ \\ {x}^{2} = 16

Therefore ,
x = + \: 4 \: \: \: \: or \: \: - 4 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: Ans.

Find the highest common factor of 28 and 210 <br><br> Step by step <br><br> Please help
Yuri [45]

Hello there!

To find the GCF, we must list all the factors and then just spot the greatest factor.

28: 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28.

210 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 14, 15, 21, 30, 35, 42, 70.

So 14 is the GCF. Hope this helps you!
