Please help me with question 4!

Mathematics
1 answer:
Minchanka [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

I think that there might be some complex differential equation

stuff going on here if this were in the real world, but for the sake of this problem... may I suggest that the tank is filling up  at a rate of

1/8 of a tank per hour...

it is evaporating at a rate of 1/12 tank per hour

you can subtract the rates

1/8 - 1/12 = 12/96- 8/96 = 3/96 = 1/32 tank/hr

so to fill the tank it should take 32 hours...

I think the logic and math work... lets see if someone else will verify this analysis?

Step-by-step explanation:

Is the square root of negative 4 rational or irrational?
deff fn [24]
The square root of -4 is the same thing as the square root of -1 times the square root of 4.  The square root of 4 is 2, but the square root is an imaginary number, i.  Since it is an imaginary number, it is indeterminate whether it is a rational or irrational (given current number theory) so the square root of negative 4 is neither rational nor irrational.  It is imaginary.

Jordan has a length of string that is 11 1\8 inches. If he cuts off a 2 1\2 inch piece, how long will the remaining string be?
Olin [163]
First convert the 2 1/2 into eighths to be able to subtract the numbers. That becomes 2 4/8. Next set up the subtraction. 11 1/8 - 2 4/8. Note that 4/8 is bigger than 1/8, meaning we have to borrow 8/8 from 11 making our problem 10 9/8 - 2 4/8. Now we subtract as normal: 10 - 2 = 8; 9/8 - 4/8 = 5/8.
Final answer: 8 5/8 inches
