From the given question we come to know of certain number of facts and they are:
At 1:00 PM the water level of the pond was = 13 inches
At 1:30 PM the water level of the pond was = 18 inches
At 2:30 PM the water level of the pond was = 28 inches
From the above given facts we can easily find the amount of water changing every half an hour.
Amount of increase in water from 1:00PM to 1:30 PM = (18 - 13) inches
= 5 inches
Amount of increase in water level from 1:30PM to 2:30PM = (28 -18) inches
= 10 inches
From the above two deductions we can come to the conclusion the the constant rate of change in water level is 5 inches for every half an hour.
Answer:
The value of x would be
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
x tons of 10% gravel G mixture is mixed with y ton of 2% gravel G to obtain 5% gravel mixture,
Thus, gravel G in x ton + gravel in y ton = gravel G in the resultant mixture,
⇒ 0.1x + 0.02y = 0.05(x+y),
0.1x - 0.05x = 0.05y - 0.02y
0.05x = 0.03y

Now, resultant mixture is z ton,
i.e. 

From equation (1),




One-half of a number plus six will equal 20.
Solving:
1/2x + 6 = 20
-6 -6
1/2x = 14
*2/1 *2/1
x = 28 <--Answer to problem
Answer:
- y= -12
- x = 7
- q = -1
- x = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
1. ..............................................
- 6(y + 7) = 2(y - 3)
- 6y + 42 = 2y - 6
- 6y - 2y = -6 - 42
- 4y = -48
- y = -12
2...............................................
- 3x + 2(x - 5) = 25
- 3x + 2x - 10 = 25
- 5x = 25 + 10
- 5x = 35
- x = 7
3 . ..............................................
- 10q + 3q + 5 = 2(q - 3)
- 13q + 5 = 2q - 6
- 13q - 2q = -6 - 5
- 11q = -11
- q = -1
4. ..............................................
- 1/3(x + 6) = 2/3(x - 9)
- 3*1/3(x+6) = 3*2/3(x - 9)
- x + 6 = 2(x - 9)
- x + 6 = 2x - 18
- 2x - x = 6 + 18
- x = 24
Answer:
The correct answer is:
"To inform readers about a topic using facts and details"
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us define informational writing first.
Informational writing is like communication writing which is used to convey something using facts and figures. Whatever is stated in an informational writing, it is supported by related facts and proofs.
Hence,
The correct answer is:
"To inform readers about a topic using facts and details"
