Answer:
f = 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
5(4f + 3) - 2f
= 20f + 15 - 2f
= 18f + 15
18f = 15
f = 15/18
f = 5/6
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
6 hours
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
The two hoses together take 1/3 the time (4/12 = 1/3), so the two hoses together are equivalent to 3 of the first hose.
That is, the second hose is equivalent to 2 of the first hose. Two of the first hose could fill the vat in half the time one of them can, so 6 hours.
The second hose alone can fill the vat in 6 hours.
_____
The first hose's rate of doing work is ...
... (1 vat)/(12 hours) = (1/12) vat/hour
If h is the second hose's rate of doing work, then working together their rate is ...
... (1/12 vat/hour) + h = (1/4 vat/hour)
... h = (1/4 - 1/12) vat/hour = (3/12 -1/12) vat/hour = 2/12 vat/hour
... h = 1/6 vat/hour
so will take 6 hours to fill 1 vat.
A + s = 480......s = 480 - a
8a + 5s = 2892
8a + 5(480 - a) = 2892
8a + 2400 - 5a = 2892
8a - 5a = 2892 - 2400
3a = 492
a = 492/3
a = 164 <=== there were 164 adult tickets sold
11/24
1. 3/8 = 9/24
2. 1/6 = 4/24
3. 9/24 + 4/24 = 13/24
4. 1- 13/24 = 11/24
And that’s if! Hoped this helped :)
These are all the correct steps to get the answer to this problem
