Answer:

The draining time when only the big drain is opened is 2.303 hours.

The draining time when only the small drain is opened is 5.303 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Physics, we know that volume flow rate (\dot V), measured in liters per hour, is directly proportional to draining time (t), measured in hours. That is:

\dot V \propto \frac{1}{t}

\dot V = \frac{k}{t} (Eq. 1)

Where k is the proportionality constant, measured in liters.

From statement, we have the following three expressions:

(i) <em>Large and small drains are opened</em>

\dot V_{s}+\dot V_{l} = \frac{k}{2} (Eq. 2)

\frac{\dot V_{s}+\dot V_{l}}{k} = \frac{1}{2}

(ii) <em>Only the small drain is opened</em>

\dot V_{s} = \frac{k}{t_{l}+3} (Eq. 3)

\frac{\dot V_{s}}{k} = \frac{1}{t_{l}+3}

(iii) <em>Only the big drain is opened</em>

\dot V_{l} = \frac{k}{t_{l}} (Eq. 4)

\frac{\dot V_{l}}{k}  = \frac{1}{t_{l}}

By applying (Eqs. 3, 4) in (Eq. 2) and making some algebraic handling, we find that:

\frac{1}{t_{l}+3}+\frac{1}{t_{l}} = \frac{1}{2}

\frac{t_{l}+t_{l}+3}{t_{l}\cdot (t_{l}+3)} = \frac{1}{2}

2\cdot t_{l}+3 = t_{l}^{2}+3\cdot t_{l}

t_{l}^{2}-t_{l}-3 = 0 (Eq. 5)

Whose roots are determined by the Quadratic Formula:

t_{l,1}\approx 2.303\,h and t_{l,2} \approx -1.302\,h

Only the first roots offers a solution that is physically reasonable. Hence, the draining time when only the big drain is opened is 2.303 hours. And the time needed for the small drain is calculated by the following formula:

t_{s} = 2.303\,h+3\,h

t_{s} = 5.303\,h

The draining time when only the small drain is opened is 5.303 hours.

Solve for x: x/2x+3 + 2x+3/x = 184/65​
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

x/2x+3 + 2x +3/x = 184 /65

x(2x + 3)–1 + (2x+3)x-1 = 184/65

(2x + 3)x / (2x +3)x = 184/65

2x² + 3x / 2x² + 3x = 184/65

1x= 184/64

x = 184/64

It takes 54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls. How many minuets does it take 6 people to paint 7 walls?
earnstyle [38]

It takes 42 minutes for 6 people to paint 7 walls

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

It takes 54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls

To find: Minutes required for 6 people to paint 7 walls

If M_1 men can do W_1 work in D_1 days working H_1 hours per day and M_2 men can do W_2 work in D_2 days working H_2 hours per day, then

\frac{M_1D_1H_1}{W_1} = \frac{M_2D_2H_2}{W_2}

M = Number of men

D = Number of days

H = Number of hours per day

W = Amount of work

Here in this sum,

<em><u>54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls</u></em>

H_1 = 54 minutes ; M_1 = 4 people ; W_1 = 6 walls

<em><u>Minutes required for 6 people to paint 7 walls</u></em>

H_2 = ? ; M_2 = 6 people ; W_2 = 7 walls

<em><u>Substituting the values in formula, we get</u></em>

\frac{54 \times 4}{6} = \frac{H_2 \times 6}{7}\\\\9 \times 4 = \frac{H_2 \times 6}{7}\\\\H_2 = \frac{36 \times 7}{6}\\\\H_2 = 42

Thus it takes 42 minutes for 6 people to paint 7 walls
