The first pump empties half the pond in 3 hours, so in 1/6 that time (1/2 hour), it empties (1/6)·(1/2) = 1/12 of the pond.
The second pump empties the other 5/12 of the pond in that half hour, so has a pumping rate of (1/2 h)/(5/12 pond) = (6/5 h)/pond.
The second pump could do the entire job alone in 1 hour and 12 minutes.
Answer:
57
Step-by-step explanation:
due to the 2 parallel lines , we have the sum of them = 180
so we can solve the equation and get x.
(180 - 14 +5 )/ 3 = 57
Answer:
x ≤ 13
Step-by-step explanation:
-4 + x ≤ 9
-4 -4
x ≤ 13
The answer is 4,560
4.56 X 1000

Answer: Choice C) $1,444.50</h3>
========================================================
There are two methods to get the answer.
The slightly longer method is to take 7% of the original price to get
7% of 1350 = (7/100)*1350 = 0.07*1350 = 94.50
The sales tax is $94.50
Add this onto the original price to get 1,350+94.50 = 1,444.50
----------------------------
A shortcut is to multiply the original price by 1.07
The multiplier 1.07 represents a 7% increase since
- 1 = 100%
- 0.07 = 7%
- 1.07 = 1 + 0.7 = 100% + 7%
So we will have 1.07*1350 = 1,444.50
